If there were just one question, then the probability of guessing correctly would be 1/3.

Since all the answers are independent (the answer to one question has no bearing on the answers to the others), then this is the case with each question, so the chances of guessing all answers correctly is 1/3 × 1/3 × 1/3 = 1/27. Independent choices are linked by multiplication.

To have exactly 2 answers correct, we have to think of which one is wrong: there are 3 questions and any single one could be wrong. The probability that the first question is wrong is 2/3. And we know that the probabilities of the other two being right is 1/3 each, so the probability of just the first question being wrong and the others right is 2/3 × 1/3 × 1/3 = 2/27. But this is just one of the three cases: 1/3 × 2/3 × 1/3 and 1/3 × 1/3 × 2/3 also both equal 2/27 each. So here we add the cases together: 2/27 + 2/27 + 2/27 = 6/27 = 2/9. So the answer to part (a) of your question is 2/9.

To solve (b) Consider that (b) is the same as (a) with "all answers right" added in. So you can simply add answer (a) to the chance of guessing all answers correctly.

To solve (c) it might help you to think of the equivalent problem: what is the probability of getting 0 correct plus the probability of getting 1 correct?

Mr green makes some compost he mixes soil, manure and leaf mould in the ratio 3:1:2 mr greenmakes 72 literes of the compost. How
love history [14]

Answer:

36\ liters\ of\ soil

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

The ratio of soil, manure and leaf mould is 3:1:2

That means

For every 6 liters of the compost, he use 3 liters of soil

so by proportion

Find how many liters of soil does he use for 72 liters of compost

\frac{3}{6}=\frac{x}{72}\\ \\x=3*72/6\\ \\x=36\ liters\ of\ soil

how much material was used in the manufacture of 24000 celluloid dice,if each dice has an edge 1/4 inches?
Dovator [93]
<span>The volume of each celluloid die is (.25 x .25 x .25) = 0.015625 cubic inch.

To manufacture 24,000 of them, you need to start with <u>at least</u>

(24,000) x (0.015625) = <u>375 cubic inches</u>.

I don't know how celluloid is sold, so you should also keep in mind that
375 cubic inches = about 207.8 fluid ounces, or about 6.5 quarts.

I'm sure a bit more than that was used in the manufacture, since
there's always some wasted, spilled, or trimmed off of the edges. </span>
