The probability for choosing green and red is \frac{1}{12}

<u>Solution:</u>

Given that , A bag contains 1 red, 1 yellow, 1 blue, and 1 green marble.

We have to find what is the probability of choosing a green marble, not replacing it, and then choosing a red marble?

Now, we know that,

\text { probability of an event }=\frac{\text { number of favourable outcomes }}{\text { total number of outcomes }}

So, total possible outcomes = 1 red + 1 yellow + 1 blue + 1 green = 4

\text { Now, probability for green marble }=\frac{1 \text { green marble }}{4 \text { marbles }}=\frac{1}{4}

And now, total outcomes will be only 3 as we are not replacing the picked marble.

\begin{array}{l}{\text { Then, probability for red marble }=\frac{1 \text { red marble }}{3 \text { marbles }}=\frac{1}{3}} \\\\ {\text { Then overall probability }=\frac{1}{4} \times \frac{1}{3}=\frac{1}{12}}\end{array}

Hence, the probability for choosing green and red is \frac{1}{12}

Probability of choosing a green marble, not replacing it, and  then choosing a red marble is \frac{1}{12}

Step-by-step explanation:

We have 1 red, 1 yellow, 1 blue, and 1 green marble in bag

Total Marbles = 4

Probability of choosing green marble= \frac{1}{4}

Since green marble is not replaced i.e it is not put back into the bag, so

Total Marbles = 4-1 = 3

Probability of choosing red marble= \frac{1}{3}

Now, calculating the probability of choosing a green marble, not replacing it, and  then choosing a red marble

= Probability of choosing green marble * Probability of choosing red marble

= \frac{1}{4}*\frac{1}{3}

=\frac{1}{12}

So, probability of choosing a green marble, not replacing it, and  then choosing a red marble is \frac{1}{12}

Phoenix [80]

Answer:

275.63 mm^2

Step-by-step explanation:

The measurements of the pyramids are

Edge length: 10
Egde width: 8.66 (because 10x8.66/2 = 43.3)
Height: 9

To find the surface area, use this formula, and you will get 275.63:

A bowling leagues mean score is 197 with a standard deviation of 12. The scores are normally distributed. What is the probabilit
Bond [772]

Answer:

0.281 = 28.1% probability a given player averaged less than 190.

Step-by-step explanation:

Normal Probability Distribution:

Problems of normal distributions can be solved using the z-score formula.

In a set with mean \mu and standard deviation \sigma, the z-score of a measure X is given by:

Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}

The Z-score measures how many standard deviations the measure is from the mean. After finding the Z-score, we look at the z-score table and find the p-value associated with this z-score. This p-value is the probability that the value of the measure is smaller than X, that is, the percentile of X. Subtracting 1 by the p-value, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.

A bowling leagues mean score is 197 with a standard deviation of 12.

This means that \mu = 197, \sigma = 12

What is the probability a given player averaged less than 190?

This is the p-value of Z when X = 190.

Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}

Z = \frac{190 - 197}{12}

Z = -0.58

Z = -0.58 has a p-value of 0.281.

0.281 = 28.1% probability a given player averaged less than 190.
