Hey there
the answer is

thank you

Hey there! I'm happy to help!
To find the distance between two numbers, you simply subtract them!
-18--4
-18+4 (two negatives makes a positive)
-14.
Have a wonderful day! :D
Answer: a) P = 0.5, b) P = 0.07
Step-by-step explanation:
Hi!
Lets call X₁ the time at which you arrive, and X₂ the time at which Bob arrives. Both are random variables with uniform density in the interval [0, 60] (in minutes). Their joint distribuition is uniform over the square in the image, with value P = 1/(60*60) = 1/3600.
a) For you to get more cake than Bob, you should arrive earlier. This event is A = { X₁ < X₂ }, the shaded triangle in the figure.The area of this event (set) is half the total area of the square, so P(A) = 0.5.
It makes sense, beacuse its equally probable for you or Bob to arrive earlier, as both have uniform density over the time interval.
b) In this case you arrive later than Bob, but less than 5 minutes later. So the event is B = { X₂ < X₁ < (X₂ + 5) } . This is the gray shaded area in b) part of the image. Its area is the difference two triangles (half square - blue triangle), then the probability is:

In every right triangle, if you add up the squares of the two
shorter sides, you get the square of the longest side. If you
don't then it's not a right triangle.
10² = 100
24² = 576
100 + 576 = 676
676 is the square of 26.
It's NOT the square of 28.
So 10 - 24 - 28 is not a right triangle.
Answer:
2/35
Step-by-step explanation:
Assuming that this is without replacement,
The total amount of marbles is 2+9+3+7, or 21.
9 are yellow, 3 are white. this makes 12.
The probability of selecting a white or yellow marble is 12/21.
Now without replacement (comment if it is with replacement.), there are 20 marbles left, and 2 are Cordovan. This means there is a 2/20 chance then of picking a Cordovan marble.
After multiplying the fractions we get
(12/21) * (2/20) = 2/35.
There is a 2/35 chance of selecting a yellow or white, then a cordovan marble.
