Jeff has 4 red pens and 2 blue pens in his backpack. He also has 1 yellow highlighter and 4 green highlighters in his
Romashka-Z-Leto [24]

Answer:

\frac{1}{15}

Step-by-step explanation:

In probability,

"AND" means "multiplication"

"OR" means "ADDITION"

We want probability of Blue Pen and Yellow Highlighter. So we find individual probabilities and "MULTIPLY" them.

Let P(b) be probability of blue pen

Let P(y) be probability of yellow highlighter

We know probability of event is that event divided by total number of that

So,

There are 4 + 2 = 6 pens

Blue pen = 2

Hence,

P(b) = 2/6 = 1/3

And,

There are 5 highlighters

Yellow highlighter = 1

Hence,

P(y) = 1/5

Now,

P(b and y) = 1/3 * 1/5 = 1/15

Hence,

probability of grabbing blue pen and a yellow highlighter is  \frac{1}{15}

Ulleksa [173]

Answer:

If there are 1000 customers in the store one week, how many will purchase exactly one of these items

1000 CUSTOMERS*28%=280

Step-by-step explanation:

A The event that a persons buys a suit  

B The event that a person buys a shirt  

C The event that a person buys a tie  

 

P(A)=  22%

P(B)=  30%

P(C)=  28%

P(AB)= 11%

P(AC)= 14%

P(BC)= 10%

P(ABC)= 6%

A u B u C Is the event that any item is bougth

AC u AC u BC Is the event that any two events occured

So the wanted probability is

P[(A u B u C )(AB u AC u BC)^c

P[(A u B u C )=P(AB)+ P(BC)+P(BC)

P[(A u B u C ) =0.22+0.30+0.28-0.11-0.14.-0.10+0.06

                      =0,51

0,51=+0,23+P[(A u B u C )(AB u AC u BC)^c

        =0,28

1000 CUSTOMERS*28%=280

Multiple Representations:Question 1
alexdok [17]

Answer:

y = 27.1

Step-by-step explanation:

We have the value of x:

x = 12

and we need to find the value of y in the expression:

y = x + 15.1

as we can see by the equation, the value of y depends on the value of x.

thus, we substitute x = 12 on the previous equation:

y = 12 + 15.1

y = 27.1

the value of y is 27.1

Tom has 7/8 gallons of paint. He used 1/2 gallon of paint on a project. He uses the steps to show how much paint he had when he
WINSTONCH [101]

He made his mistake in Step 2. Tom should have subtracted 4/8 instead of 1/8. The mistake is that he was not consistent when he multiplied Denominators (bottom number) must be the same when handling fractions so Tom must multiply both the numerator and denominator by the SAME number to balance it out. 1/2 x 4/4= 4/8. Subtract. 7/8 - 4/8= 3/8. Tom has 3/8 of a gallon of paint leftover.
