Answer:

2/7

Step-by-step explanation:

6 blue socks

7 white socks and

8 gray socks

Total number of socks = 6 + 7 + 8

= 21

Probability of picking a blue sock without looking = no of blue socks / total number of socks

That’s 6/21

= 2/7

The probability of picking a blue sock is 2/7

Answer:

Pr(blue) = 2/7

Step-by-step explanation:

Blue = 6

White = 7

Gray = 8

Total socks = 6+7+8 =21

Probability of picking blue = number of blue ➗ total number of socks

Pr(blue) = 6/21

Divide both by 3 to make the fraction to the lowest term.

Pr(blue) = 2/7

b.true

c.false

d.I really can't get about it.

e.false

Step-by-step explanation:

So,here;

a.9.9.3=35 is given

or,243=35 (which is false)

b.7+7+7=3+3+3+3+3+3+3

or,21=21 (which is true)

c.2/3/2=2/3

or,2*2/3=2/3

or,4/3=2/3(which is false)

e.6+6+6=63

or,18=63 (which is false)

Suppose the contact rate for a phone survey is 78% and that 22% of people will participate in that survey. Assume that agreeing
Gnoma [55]
Remember that, for independent events, the probability that both occurr is the product of the individual probabilities.

a) Probability of being contacted: 78% = 0.78

Probaility of refusing: 1 - 22% = 1 -0.22 = 0.78

Combined probability: 0.78*0.78 = 0.6084

b) The probability of failing to contact or making contact and not geeting them to agree 1 - the probability of contacting and getting them to agree.

The probabilityof contacting and getting them to agree is 0.78*0.22 = 0.1716

The the answer to this question is 1 - 0.1716 = 0.8284

The lengths of a professor's classes has a continuous uniform distribution between 50.0 min and 52.0 min. if one such class is r
rodikova [14]
The distribution is uniform for 50 ≤ x ≤ 52.
where x =  minutes per class.

The probability P(x < 50.6) is the shaded portion of the distribution.
Its value is
(50.6 - 50)/(52 - 50) = 0.3

Answer:
The probability is  0.3 or 30%
