Answer:

The required probability is \dfrac{13}{50}

Step-by-step explanation:

Total number of bottles = 50

Total number of water bottles = 30

Total number of lemon flavored water bottles = 8

Total number of tea bottles = 20

Total number of lemon flavored tea bottles = 5

<em>Probability of selecting a lemon flavored water bottle = Probability of selecting a water bottle </em>\times<em> Probability of selecting a lemon bottle out of water bottles.</em>

<em></em>

<em>Probability of selecting a lemon flavored tea bottle = Probability of selecting a tea bottle </em>\times<em> Probability of selecting a lemon bottle out of tea bottles.</em>

Formula for probability of an event E can be observed as:

P(E) = \dfrac{\text{Number of favorable cases}}{\text {Total number of cases}}

Probability of selecting a water bottle:

\dfrac{30}{50} = \dfrac{3}{5}

Probability of selecting a lemon flavored bottle from water bottle:

\dfrac{8}{30}

<em>Probability of selecting a lemon flavored water bottle = P(A)</em>

<em></em>\dfrac{3}{5} \times \dfrac{8}{30} = \dfrac{4}{25}<em></em>

<em></em>

Probability of selecting a tea bottle:

\dfrac{20}{50} = \dfrac{2}{5}

Probability of selecting a lemon flavored bottle from tea bottle:

\dfrac{5}{20} = \dfrac{1}{4}

<em>Probability of selecting a lemon flavored tea bottle = P(B)</em>

<em></em>\dfrac{2}{5} \times \dfrac{1}{4} = \dfrac{1}{10}<em></em>

<em></em>

<em>The required probability is:</em>

<em>P(A) + P(B):</em>

<em></em>\dfrac{4}{25} + \dfrac{1}{10}\\\Rightarrow \dfrac{8+5}{50}\\\Rightarrow \dfrac{13}{50}<em></em>

PLZZZ HELP DUE IN 5 MINS

Answer:

{(2, 9), (5, 9), (1, -6), (-5, 5), (2,9), (5,9), (1,−6), (−5,5)}

Step-by-step explanation:

recall that for a function to be valid, every input must give one and only 1 output. (i.e every x-ordinate must have only one unique corresponding y-ordinate)

I have highlighted in bold and underlined the entries for each of the other choices where an x-value gives more than one possible y-value, hence these are not functions. only the first option satisfies this condition:

{(2, 9), (5, 9), (1, -6), (-5, 5), (2,9), (5,9), (1,−6), (−5,5)} Every x-value has a unique y-value, so it is possible that this is a function.

{<em><u>(6, 6)</u></em>, <em><u>(6, 8)</u></em>, (-8, -7), (-3, -8), (6,6),(6,8),(−8,−7),(−3,−8)}  (not a function)

{(1, 8), (9, -3), <u><em>(7, -4)</em></u>, <u><em>(7, -6)</em></u>, (1,8),(9,−3),(7,−4),(7,−6)} (not a function)

{<u><em>(-5, -1)</em></u>, (-3, -7), <u><em>(-5, 3)</em></u>, (-7, -4), (−5,−1),(−3,−7),(−5,3),(−7,−4)} (not a function)

What is the value of x
pav-90 [236]

Let's start with triangle RST. This is a 30-60-90 triangle, which means it has the relationship x - x sqrt(3) - 2x.

If RS is 2 sqrt(3), then ST must be 2 and RT must be 4.

Triangle QRT is a 45-45-90 triangle, which means it has the relationship x - x - x sqrt(2).

If RT is 4, then RQ must also be 4.

Answer: x = 4

Hope this helps!

Problemas de razonamiento división de números decimales. Ayer Susana se fue de viaje a visitar a unos familiares. Recorrió 135,7
schepotkina [342]

Usando las relaciones entre velocidad, distancia y tiempo, se encuentra que ella condujo a una velocidad media de 90,5 km/h.

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

La <u>velocidad </u><u>es la distancia dividida por el tiempo</u>, por lo que:

v = \frac{d}{t}

  • Total de 135,75 km, o sea, d = 135,75
  • Llego en 1,5 horas, o sea, t = 1,5

La velocidad es:

v = \frac{d}{t} = \frac{135,75}{1,5}

División de decimales, o sea, seguimos multiplicando los números por 10 hasta que ninguno sea decimal:

v = \frac{135,75}{1,5} = \frac{1357,5}{15} = \frac{13575}{150} = 90,5

Ella condujo a una velocidad media de 90,5 km/h.
