A gumball machine contains three yellow, eight blue, and six pink gumballs. What is the probability that the next gumball that c

Roman55 [17]

Answer:

total balls in the Machine = 7+5+4 = 16

Step-by-step explanation:

METHOD-1

Probability of First ball to be Blue = 7/(7+5+4) = 7/16

Probability of Second ball to be Green = 5/(15) = 5/15 [15 balls remaining after one being taken out in Step 1]

Probability of Third ball to be red = 4/(14) = 4/14 [14 balls remaining after Two being taken out in Step 1&2]

But this can happen in any order so the orders in which it can happen = 3!

i.e. Final Probability that machine dispenses one gumball of each color = (7/16)*(5/15)*(4/14)*3! = 1/4

Answer: Option E

METHOD-2

The total ways in which three balls can be Picked out of a total of 16 balls (with orders) = 16*15*14 = 840

The ways in which three balls of different colors can be taken out (with orders) = 7*5*4*3! = 3360

Probability = Favourable Outcome / Total Outcomes

i.e Probability = 840 / 3360 = 1/4

Answer: Option E

METHOD-3

The total ways in which three balls can be Picked out of a total of 16 balls (without orders) = 16C3 = 560

The ways in which three balls of different colors can be taken out (with orders) = 7C1 * 5C1 *4C1 = 140

Probability = Favourable Outcome / Total Outcomes

i.e Probability = 140 / 560 = 1/4

Answer: Option E

A worker at a landscape design center uses a machine to fill bags with potting soil. Assume that the quantity put in each bag fo

defon

Answer:

a) The expected value is given by:

$E(X) =\frac{a+b}{2}= \frac{10+12}{2}= 11$

The variance is given by:

$Var(X) = \frac{(b-a)^2}{12}= \frac{(12-10)^2}{12}= 0.3333$

And the standard deviation is just the square root of the variance and we got:

$Sd(x) = \sqrt{0.3333}= 0.5774$

b) $P(X$

And we can use the cumulative distribution function given by:

$F(x) = \frac{x-a}{b-a}, a \leq x \leq b$

And using this function we got:

$P(X$

c) $P(X>10.5)$

And using the complement rule and the cumulative distribution function we got:

$P(X>10.5)= 1-P(X$

Step-by-step explanation:

For this case we define the random variable X=quantity put in each bag , and we know that the distribution for X is given by:

$X \sim Unif (a= 10, b =12)$

Part a

The expected value is given by:

$E(X) =\frac{a+b}{2}= \frac{10+12}{2}= 11$

The variance is given by:

$Var(X) = \frac{(b-a)^2}{12}= \frac{(12-10)^2}{12}= 0.3333$

And the standard deviation is just the square root of the variance and we got:

$Sd(x) = \sqrt{0.3333}= 0.5774$

Part b

For this case we want this probability:

$P(X$

And we can use the cumulative distribution function given by:

$F(x) = \frac{x-a}{b-a}, a \leq x \leq b$

And using this function we got:

$P(X$

Part c

For this case we want this probability:

$P(X>10.5)$

And using the complement rule and the cumulative distribution function we got:

$P(X>10.5)= 1-P(X$

Answer:

Taxonomy

Step-by-step explanation:

The taxonometric way of classifying organisms is based on similarities between different organisms. A biologist named Carolus Linnaeus started this naming system. He also chose to use Latin words.

Find the probability

zalisa [80]

Answer:

33.3333%

Step-by-step explanation:

each side would be 50% and if one side is split between three it would equal if it was 16.6667 each

since tehre are two red sides multiply 16.6667 by 2 and u get 33.3333%
