Answer:

It would take 3.6 mins.

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to find this, we simply divide the amount of time by the amount of the tank that is filled.

2 ÷ 5/9 = 3.6

You can see the three diagram attached. Each link is labeled with the probability: you have probability 1/6 that a six is rolled, and 5/6 that it is not rolled.


To answer the questions, find the path that brings you to the desired outcome, and multiply all the labels you meet.


First question:

To get three sixes, you have to choose the left path at each roll. The probability is always 1/6, so the answer is


\frac{1}{6} \times \frac{1}{6} \times \frac{1}{6} = \frac{1}{6^3}


Second question:

To get no sixes, you have to choose the right path at each roll. The probability is always 5/6, so the answer is


\frac{5}{6} \times \frac{5}{6} \times \frac{5}{6} = \frac{5^3}{6^3}


Third question:

To get exactly one six, it can either be the first, second or third roll.


In all cases, you have to choose the left path once and the right path twice: left-right-right mean that you get the six in the first roll, right-left-right means that you get the six in the second roll, right-right-left means that you get the six in the third roll.


In every case, the left turn has probability 1/6, and the right turn has probability 5/6. The probability of each combination is thus


\frac{1}{6} \times \frac{5}{6} \times \frac{5}{6} = \frac{5^2}{6^3}


And since there are three of these combinations, The answer is


3\frac{5^2}{6^3}


Fourth question:

Since the question suggests to use what we already achieved, let's do it: having at least one six is the complementary event of having no sixes at all. If an event has probability p, its complementary has probability 1-p. So, since the probability of no sixes is known, the probability of at least one six is


1 - \frac{5^3}{6^3}

A small publishing company is planning to publish a new book. The production costs will include one-time fixed costs (such as ed
Lady_Fox [76]

Answer:

for 3644 produced books the costs will be the same.

Step-by-step explanation:

x = number of books

f(x) = production method 1 costs

g(x) = production method 2 costs

f(x) = 11.75x + 57077

g(x) = 21.25x + 22459

for what number of books (x) will that be the same ?

11.75x + 57077 = 21.25x + 22459

34618 = 9.5x

x = 34618 / 9.5 = 3644
