Here is a simple way we can do this.
We have six blanks.
__ __ __ __ __ __

Now, we have 13 possible options to fill in blank number one.
13 __ __ __ __ __

Now we have 12 possible options to fill in blank number two because one person has already been chosen.
13 12 __ __ __ __

Now we have 11 possible options for blank number three.
13 12 11 __ __ __

Now we have 10 possible options for blank number four.
13 12 11 10 __ __

And so forth until we get:
13 12 11 10 9 8

Now we just have to multiply the numbers all together.
13 * 12 * 11 * 10 * 9 * 8
is equal to:
1235520 ways.

arlik [135]

The given number of balloons, green = 10, purple = 4, red = 5, tie-dye = 2, black = 3, gives;

a. 5/138

b. 25/276

c. 5/1012

d. 35/46

<h3>How can the different probabilities be calculated mathematically?</h3>

Given parameters;

Number of balls;

Green = 10

Purple = 4

Red = 5

Tie-dye = 2

Black = 3

Mode of selection = Without replacement

Number of balloons = 10+4+5+2+3 = 24

a. Probability of popping a red balloon = 5/24

Probability of popping a second red balloon = 4/23

Therefore;

Probability of popping two reds consecutively = 5/24 × 4/23 = 5/138

b. Probability of popping a red balloon = 5/24

Probability of popping a green balloon next = 10/23

Therefore;

Probability of popping a red and then a green balloon = 5/24 × 10/23 = 25/276

c. Probability that the first balloon that pops is a red = 5/24

Next balloon is a black = 3/23

Third balloon is red = 4/22

The probability, <em>P</em>, is therefore;

  • P = 5/24 × 3/23 × 4/22 = 5/1012

d. The probability that the first balloon is a tie-dye = 2/24 = 1/12

Therefore;

Probability that the first balloon is not a tie-dye = 1 - 1/12 = 11/12

Probability that the second balloon is not a tie-dye = 21/23

Similarly;

Probability that the third balloon is not a tie-dye = 20/22 = 10/11

Which gives;

The probability, <em>P</em>, of popping anything but a tie-dye on three consecutive throws is therefore;

  • P = 11/12 × 21/23 × 10/11 = 35/46

On a number line, A is at -2 and B is at 4. What is the coordinate of C, which is 2/3
STatiana [176]

Answer:

  2

Step-by-step explanation:

The distances have the ratio:

  (C -A) = (2/3)(B -A)

  C = (2/3)B +(1/3)A . . . . . add A

  C = (2B +A)/3 . . . . . . . . combine terms

  C = (2(4) +(-2))/3 = 6/3 = 2

The coordinate of C is 2.
