Answer:

7.5 liters of a 10% antifreeze solution AND

7.5 liters of a 40% antifreeze solution

Step-by-step explanation:

According to the question,we were asked to find out how many liters of 10% anti freeze solution and 40% anti freeze each to make a 15 liters 25% mixture

Let’s call

the amount of liters needed of our 10% solution “x”. So, how

many liters do we need of the 40% solution? Well, there are 15

liters in total, x liters have been spoken for, so what remains

of our allotted 10 liters then, is 15-x.

Now let's solve for "x"

10% of x + 40% of (15 - x) = 25% of 15 liters

0.1x + 0.4(15 - x) = 0.25(15)

0.1x + 6 - 0.4x = 3.75

Collect the like terms and we have

0.3x = 2.25

x = 2.25 × 3

X = 7.5(Liters for the 10% anti freeze solution)

The 40% solution= 15 - 7.5 = 7.5 liters

Since "X" was used to fill for the unknown amount of 10% anti freeze solution,we have 7.5 liters of the 10% solution and another 7.5 liters for the 40% solution to end up with 15 liters of the desired 25% solution.

Answer:

35/132.

Step-by-step explanation:

There are a total of 12 balls. So:

Prob(First is green) = 5/12.

After the first selection there are 11 balls left.

Prob(The second is red) = 7/11.

The required probability = 5/12 * 7/11

= 35/132.

Note: the probabilities are multiplied because the 2 events are independent.

Answer:

10.

x P(X)

0 0.238

1 0.438

2 0.269

3 0.055

11.

0.707

There is 70.7% chance that at least one but at most two adults in the sample believes in the ghost

12.

1.14≅1

There will be one adult out of three we expect to believe in the ghost

Step-by-step explanation:

The probability distribution is constructed using binomial distribution.

We have to construct the probability distribution of the number adults believe in ghosts out of three adults. so,

x=0,1,2,3

n=3

p=probability of adults believe in ghosts=0.38

The binomial distribution formula

nCxp^xq^n-x=3cx0.38^x0.62^3-x

is computed for x=0,1,2,3 and the results depicts the probability distribution of the number adults believe in ghosts out of three adults.

x P(X)

0 0.238

1 0.438

2 0.269

3 0.055

11.

P(at least one but at most two adults in the sample believes in the ghost )= P(x=1)+P(x=2)=0.437+0.269=0.707

P(at least one but at most two adults in the sample believes in the ghost )=70.7%

12. E(x)=n*p

here n=3 adults and p=0.38

E(x)=3*0.38=1.14

so we expect one adult out of three will believe in the ghosts.
