Answer: There are 32 pints of first type and 128 pints of second type in mixture.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

Percentage of pure fruit juice in first type = 60%

Percentage of pure fruit juice in second type = 85%

Percentage of pure fruit juice in mixture = 80%

We will use "Mixture and Allegation" to find the ratio of first and second type in mixture:

          First type          Second type

               60%                    85%

                              80%

------------------------------------------------------------------------

     85-80               :              80-60

       5%                  :                 20%

        1                     :                   4

so, the ratio of first and second type is 1:4.

Total number of pints of mixture = 160

Number of pints of mixture of  first type in mixture  is given by

\dfrac{1}{5}\times 160\\\\=32\ pints

Number of pints of mixture of second type in mixture is given by

\dfrac{4}{5}\times 160\\\\=4\times 32\\\\=128\ pints

Hence, there are 32 pints of first type and 128 pints of second type in mixture.

My name is Ann [436]

Answer:

C. x 0 1 2 p(x) 0.35 0.60 0.05

Step-by-step explanation:

50% chance of survival

Let:

x = older eaglet survive

y = younger eaglet survive

Hence,

P(x = 0) (none of the eaglet survive)

P(x = 1) (only one survive)

P(x = 2) (both survive)

P(x) = 0.5

P(x') = 1 - 0.5 = 0.5

P(x n y) = 0.5 * 0.1 = 0.05 ( both survive)

P(only one survive)

P(y n x') + p(y' n x)

(0.5 * 0.3) + (0.5 * (1 - 0.1))

0.15 + 0.45 = 0.6

P(none survives)

1 - (0.60 + 0.05)

= 0.35

X _______ 0 ______ 1 ______ 2

P(x) ____ 0.35 ____ 0.60 ___ 0.05
