Answer:

a) 1/22

b) 3/44

c) 3/11.

Step-by-step explanation:

a).

Prob(picking a blue first) = 5/12.

Prob(picking a yellow next) = 4/11    ( as it is without replacement)

Prob(purple next) = 3/10

Probability of picking these in this order = 5/12 * 4/11 * 3/10

= 1/22 (answer).

Note the probabilities are multiplied because the 3 events are independent.

b)

Prob(all the same colour) = Prob(All are blue) + Prob(all are yellow) + Prob ( All are purple)

Prob(All are blue) = 5/12 * 4/11 * 3/10 =  1/22

Prob(all are yellow) = 4/12 * 3/11 * 2/10 = 1/55

Prob(all purple) = 3/12 * 2/11 * 1 /10 = 1/220

So probability there are all the same colour = the sum of the above

= 3/44 (answer).

c)  I take this to mean that all 3 are a different colour.

This will be the number of combinations of blue, yellow and purple possible which is 3! = 6.

So the answer is 6 * 1/22 = 3/11.

Westkost [7]

Answer:

  • 18 ft and 30 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>The new dimensions will be:</u>

  • 10 + x and 22 + x

The area is 540

<u>Using area equation we get:</u>

  • (10 + x)(22 + x) = 540
  • x² + 32x + 220 = 540
  • x² + 32x = 320
  • x² + 2x*16 + 256 = 320 + 256
  • (x + 16)² = 576
  • x + 16 = √576  (Ignoring the negative root as the length is never negative)
  • x + 16 = 24
  • x = 8

<u>The new dimensions are:</u>

  • 10 + 8 = 18 ft and
  • 22 + 8 = 30 ft
