There are 50 red marbles but then drew added six more so its 56. Then she has 50 green marbles but took away 4 so now she has 46. And she left the blue marbles alone so its still 50.

A circle with a radius of 3cm sits inside a 8cm*7cm rectangle. What is the area of the shaded region? Round your final answer to
Elanso [62]

Answer:

27.73 cm squared

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to find the shaded region, we need to find the areas of the circle and the rectangle and then subtract the circle area from the rectangle area.

The area of a rectangle is denoted by: A = lw, where l is the length and w is the width. Here, the length is l = 7 and the width is w = 8. Plug these in:

A = lw

A = 7 * 8 = 56 cm squared

The area of a circle is denoted by: A = πr², where r is the radius. Here, the radius is r = 3, so plug this in:

A = πr²

A = π * 3² = 9π ≈ 28.27 cm squared

Now subtract 28.27 from 56:

56 - 28.27 = 27.73

The answer is thus 27.73 cm squared.

A bag contains two six-sided dice: one red, one green. The red die has faces numbered 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, and 6. The green die has fa
gayaneshka [121]

Answer:

the probability the die chosen was green is 0.9

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

A bag contains two six-sided dice: one red, one green.

The red die has faces numbered 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, and 6.

The green die has faces numbered 1, 2, 3, 4, 4, and 4.

From above, the probability of obtaining 4 in a single throw of a fair die is:

P (4  | red dice) = \dfrac{1}{6}

P (4 | green dice) = \dfrac{3}{6} =\dfrac{1}{2}

A die is selected at random and rolled four times.

As the die is selected randomly; the probability of the first die must be equal to the probability of the second die = \dfrac{1}{2}

The probability of two 1's and two 4's in the first dice can be calculated as:

= \begin {pmatrix}  \left \begin{array}{c}4\\2\\ \end{array} \right  \end {pmatrix} \times  \begin {pmatrix} \dfrac{1}{6}  \end {pmatrix}  ^4

= \dfrac{4!}{2!(4-2)!} ( \dfrac{1}{6})^4

= \dfrac{4!}{2!(2)!} \times ( \dfrac{1}{6})^4

= 6 \times ( \dfrac{1}{6})^4

= (\dfrac{1}{6})^3

= \dfrac{1}{216}

The probability of two 1's and two 4's in the second  dice can be calculated as:

= \begin {pmatrix}  \left \begin{array}{c}4\\2\\ \end{array} \right  \end {pmatrix} \times  \begin {pmatrix} \dfrac{1}{6}  \end {pmatrix}  ^2  \times  \begin {pmatrix} \dfrac{3}{6}  \end {pmatrix}  ^2

= \dfrac{4!}{2!(2)!} \times ( \dfrac{1}{6})^2 \times  ( \dfrac{3}{6})^2

= 6 \times ( \dfrac{1}{6})^2 \times  ( \dfrac{3}{6})^2

= ( \dfrac{1}{6}) \times  ( \dfrac{3}{6})^2

= \dfrac{9}{216}

∴

The probability of two 1's and two 4's in both dies = P( two 1s and two 4s | first dice ) P( first dice ) + P( two 1s and two 4s | second dice ) P( second dice )

The probability of two 1's and two 4's in both die = \dfrac{1}{216} \times \dfrac{1}{2} + \dfrac{9}{216} \times \dfrac{1}{2}

The probability of two 1's and two 4's in both die = \dfrac{1}{432}  + \dfrac{1}{48}

The probability of two 1's and two 4's in both die = \dfrac{5}{216}

By applying  Bayes Theorem; the probability that the die was green can be calculated as:

P(second die (green) | two 1's and two 4's )  = The probability of two 1's and two 4's | second dice)P (second die) ÷ P(two 1's and two 4's in both die)

P(second die (green) | two 1's and two 4's )  = \dfrac{\dfrac{1}{2} \times \dfrac{9}{216}}{\dfrac{5}{216}}

P(second die (green) | two 1's and two 4's )  = \dfrac{0.5 \times 0.04166666667}{0.02314814815}

P(second die (green) | two 1's and two 4's )  = 0.9

Thus; the probability the die chosen was green is 0.9
