Answer:0.375

Explanation:

Given

An Urn contains 3 White and 3 black balls

Ball is replaced after it is drawn

Using Binomial Distribution as trials are finite

n=4 i.e. 4 balls are drawn

Probability of getting white ball (p)=\frac{1}{2}

Probability of getting a Non-white ball(q)=\frac{1}{2}

P(X=r)= ^nC_r(p)^r(q)^{n-r}

For Exactly 2 white balls

P(X=2)=^4C_2(\frac{1}{2})^{2}(\frac{1}{2})^{2}

P(X=2)=\frac{4!}{2!\cdot 2!}\times \frac{1}{2^4}

P(X=2)=\frac{3}{8}

A ship, carrying freshwater to a desert island in the caribbean, has a horizontal cross-sectional area of 2800 m2 at the waterli
Alex17521 [72]
<span>Due that we already know the horizontal cross-sectional area of the ship, which is 2800 m2 and we are going to understand that value keeps constant for the whole 9.5 of height of the ship from the waterline till the new waterline after unloading, then we just need to calculate the volume as follows: V = A * H , where V is volume, A is area and H is height V= 2,800 * 9.5 = 26,600 m3 So this volum of 26,600 cubic meters is the volum of freshwater delivered in the island.</span>
