Tan socks = 4
Grey socks = 7
Total number of socks = 4+7 = 11 socks
Probability of picking a tan sock then grey sock:
P(T)*P(G) = (4/11)*(7/10) = 14/54

Probability of picking a Grey sock then Tan sock
P(G)*P(T) = (7/11)*(4/10) = 14/55

Probability of two different colored socks
P(T&G)+P(G&T) = (14/55)+(14/55) = 28/55

Am I correct? If not what did I do wrong
LUCKY_DIMON [66]

    You are not correct. Here's an explanation as to why: First of all, the triangle is isosceles, since it has two congruent sides that leads to the conclusion of two congruent angles, one opposite each side. This means that all three angle measurements of the triangle are x degrees, x degrees, and 40 degrees. To solve for x, add all three values together and set them equal to 180 degrees, the sum of three angles in any triangle. Your mistake is adding only one x to 40, which isn't inclusive of all three triangles. I hope this helped!

Financial maths-- multiple choice!!!
Zinaida [17]

Answer:

liquidity

Step-by-step explanation:

when the bank gets only electronic money transfers, they don't get actual money. so, they can use that only for other electronic transfers, but if there is the need for actual money (e.g. a lot of people need a cash payout), the bank is then not able to do that. they don't have enough cash = they are not liquid.

which can actually lead to insolvency.

What is a true statement about negative exponents?
Nadya [2.5K]

Answer:

Raising something to a negative exponent is just taking the reciprocal of the amount.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's assume that you wanted to know what x^{-2} is.

To find it, you would take the reciprocal of the x amount. So x^{-2} becomes \frac{1}{x^{2}}.

This works because of the nature of exponents. Exponents represent the number of times you are multiplying a value by itself. So a^{3} would be equal to a · a · a. To increase the exponent, you increase the number of times the value is multiplied by itself: To increase a^{3} to a^{5}, you would have to multiply a with a^{3} two more times (a · a · a · a · a). To decrease the exponent, you must divide the value by itself. So to decrease a^{5} to a^{2}, you would have to divide a^{5} by a 3 times.

If the exponent is 0, the value is equal to 1. But you can still decrease the exponent into negative numbers. You just divide 1 by a the desired amount of times: \frac{1}{a^{3}} means that you are dividing 1 by a 3 times.

Hope this helps.

g If A and B are disjoint events, with P( A) = 0.20 and P( B) = 0.30. Then P( A and B) is: a. .00 b. .10 c. .50 d. 0.06
Lostsunrise [7]

Answer: A) 0

P(A and B) = 0 when events A and B are disjoint, aka mutually exclusive.

We say that two events are mutually exclusive if they cannot happen at the same time. An example would be flipping a coin to have it land on heads and tails at the same time.
