Answer:

The probability of this occurring is 1/7

Step-by-step explanation:

Okay, here is a probability question.

From the question, we can identify the following;

Total number of socks = 2 + 4 + 2 = 8 socks

Since we are not given the order in which the socks was worn, we can assume any order.

Let’s say the right leg socks was worn first.

From the question, the socks on the right leg is a brown one.

So now let’s calculate the probability of selecting a brown socks out of the mix

That would be ;

number of brown socks/ total number of socks = 4/8 = 1/2

Now, for the left foot, we are having white sock here.

Kindly recall that since we already have a sock on the right foot, we have 7 socks left to pick from.

Now we need the probability of picking a white sock from the total 7. That would be ; 2/7

So the probability of both action occurring is simply the product of both probabilities and that is ;

1/2 * 2/7 = 1/7

Step-by-step explanation:

300-200=100

300+0.01=301

300-100=200

300+100=400

What is the relationship between \blueD{\angle a}∠astart color #11accd, angle, a, end color #11accd and \greenD{\angle b}∠bstart
Elza [17]

Answer:

Complementary angles.

Step-by-step explanation:

Notice that \angle a=\angle AXY, \angle b = \angle YXB  and \angle BXC = 90\°, by given.

\angle AXB = \angle AXY + \angle YXB, by sum of angles.

\angle AXB + \angle BXC = 180\°, by supplementary angles definition.

\angle AXB + 90\° = 180\°\\\angle AXB = 180\° - 90\°\\\angle AXB = 90\°

Which means,

\angle AXB = \angle AXY + \angle YXB = 90\°

Therefore,\angle a + \angle b = 90\°, in other words, angles a and b are complementary by definition.

Mario invests £2000 for 3 years at 5% per annum compound interest. Calculate the value of the investment at the end of 3 years.
Delicious77 [7]

Answer:

$2315.25

Step-by-step explanation:

Given data

Principal=  £2000

Time= 3 years

Rate= 5%

The compound interest expression is

A= P(1+r)^t

substitute

A= 2000(1+0.05)^3

A= 2000(1.05)^3

A= 2000*1.157625

A= 2315.25

Hence the Amount is $2315.25
