Building a is 190 feet shorter than building

Mathematics
1 answer:
MaRussiya [10]3 years ago
3 0
We will solve this using a system of equations.  The first part tells us that building a is 190 feet shorter than building b.  Our first equation, then, is b=190+a.  The second part tells us that the addition of the two buildings' heights is 1480.  So our second equation is a + b = 1480.  The first equation is already solved for b, so let's sub that value into the second equation for b: a+(190+a)=1480.  2a + 190 = 1480 and 2a = 1290.  That means that building a is 645 feet tall.  Building b is 190 feet taller, so b = 190 + 645, which is 835.

Suppose a bag contains 4 white chips and 6 black chips. What is the probability of randomly choosing a white chip, not replacing
Marysya12 [62]
There are 10 chips altogether. 4 of them are white.
4/10 is the chance of lifting out a white chip
There are 3 of them left and 9 chips altogehter.
4/10 * 3/9
12/90
4/30
2/15

Comment
(my edit) it is not that 2/15 is wrong (although it is not entirely right).
1/3 is the correct answer if you assume that what happened during the first draw has nothing to do with what will happen on the second. It is like saying if you throw 11 heads in a row with a fair coin, what are the chances of throwing a heads on the 12th throw? The answer is 1/2. That is the same kind of question you have asked.

The two of us who have responded have really responded to what are the chances of drawing 2 white chips. The question really does not restrict us in a way that prevents us from saying that. I'll stick with
B <<<< answer
but I think it would be nice if the writer of the question made it clear that 1/3 should be the proper answer. I am glad you came back and posted the right answer. It makes me think. 

The semi right answer is B <<<<---- 

If my reasoning bothers anybody, I'll reedit again. I'm only leaving it because sometimes a mistake is more instructive than a given answer.
