Answer:

a) P(Y') = 0.850

b) P(O) + P(Y) = 0.380

c) 0.001728 = 0.002 to 3 d.p

d) 0.7744 = 0.774 to 3 d.p

e) 0.120

Step-by-step explanation:

Probability of brown M&M's = P(Br) = 0.12

Probability of yellow M&M's = P(Y) = 0.15

Probability of red M&M's = P(R) = 0.12

Probability of blue M&M's = P(Bl) = 0.23

Probability of orange M&M's = P(O) = 0.23

Probability of green M&M's = P(G) = 0.15

Total probability = 1

a) The probability that a randomly selected peanut M&M is not yellow = 1 - P(Y) = 1 - 0.15 = 0.85

b) The probability that a randomly selected peanut M&M is orange or yellow = P(O) + P(Y) = 0.23 + 0.15 = 0.38

c) The probability that three randomly selected peanut M&M's are all red = P(R) × P(R) × P(R) = 0.12 × 0.12 × 0.12 = 0.001728

d) If you randomly select two peanut M&M's, compute that probability that neither of them are red

This probability = P(R') × P(R')

P(R') = 1 - P(R) = 1 - 0.12 = 0.88

P(R') × P(R') = 0.88 × 0.88 = 0.7744

e) If you randomly select two peanut M&M's, compute that probability that at least one of them is red

This probability = [P(R) × P(R')] + [P(R) + P(R)] = (0.12 × 0.88) + (0.12 × 0.12) = 0.1056 + 0.0144 = 0.120

6/10+6/100= how do i do this problem
olya-2409 [2.1K]

Answer:

0.66

Step-by-step explanation:

As division is always done before addition you would divide the 6 by 10 and then divide the 6 by 100. 6 divided by 10 is equal to 0.6 as you move the decimal point to the left once. 6 divided by 100 is equal to 0.06 as you move the decimal point to the left twice. Addition is always done after division so you would add 0.6 and 0.06 together. This will give you 0.66 as your answer.

What is the volume of a right circular cone if the circumference of the base is 125.6 ft and the height is 75 ft.? Use π=3.14 an
Alex_Xolod [135]

Answer:

The volume of a right circular cone is 31400\ \text{feet}^3.

Step-by-step explanation:

The circumference of the base of a right circular cone is 125.6 ft.

Height of cone is 75 ft.

Circumference of base is :

C=2\pi r, r is radius

r=\dfrac{C}{2\pi}\\\\r=\dfrac{125.6}{2\times 3.14}\\\\r=20\ ft

The volume of a cone is given by :

V=\dfrac{1}{3}\pi r^2 h\\\\V=\dfrac{1}{3}\times 3.14\times (20)^2\times 75\\\\V=31400\ \text{feet}^3

So, the volume of a right circular cone is 31400\ \text{feet}^3.
