29 - 3x F 5x + 5<br> The answer

A bag contains 4 blue marbles and 2 yellow marbles. Two marbles are randomly chosen (the first marble is NOT replaced before dra

VMariaS [17]

Answer:

0.4 = 40% probability that both marbles are blue.

0.0667 = 6.67% probability that both marbles are yellow.

53.33% probability of one blue and then one yellow

If you are told that both selected marbles are the same color, 0.8571 = 85.71% probability that both are blue

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this question, we need to understand conditional probability(for the final question) and the hypergeometric distribution(for the first three, because the balls are chosen without being replaced).

Hypergeometric distribution:

The probability of x sucesses is given by the following formula:

$P(X = x) = h(x,N,n,k) = \frac{C_{k,x}*C_{N-k,n-x}}{C_{N,n}}$

In which:

x is the number of sucesses.

N is the size of the population.

n is the size of the sample.

k is the total number of desired outcomes.

Combinations formula:

$C_{n,x}$ is the number of different combinations of x objects from a set of n elements, given by the following formula.

$C_{n,x} = \frac{n!}{x!(n-x)!}$

Conditional Probability

We use the conditional probability formula to solve this question. It is

$P(B|A) = \frac{P(A \cap B)}{P(A)}$

In which

P(B|A) is the probability of event B happening, given that A happened.

$P(A \cap B)$ is the probability of both A and B happening.

P(A) is the probability of A happening.

What is the probability that both marbles are blue?

4 + 2 = 6 total marbles, which means that $N = 6$

4 blue, which means that $k = 4$

Sample of 2, which means that $n = 2$

This is P(X = 2). So

$P(X = x) = h(x,N,n,k) = \frac{C_{k,x}*C_{N-k,n-x}}{C_{N,n}}$

$P(X = 2) = h(2,6,2,4) = \frac{C_{4,2}*C_{2,0}}{C_{6,2}} = 0.4$

0.4 = 40% probability that both marbles are blue

What is the probability that both marbles are yellow?

4 + 2 = 6 total marbles, which means that $N = 6$

2 yellow, which means that $k = 2$

Sample of 2, which means that $n = 2$

This is P(X = 2). So

$P(X = x) = h(x,N,n,k) = \frac{C_{k,x}*C_{N-k,n-x}}{C_{N,n}}$

$P(X = 2) = h(2,6,2,2) = \frac{C_{2,2}*C_{4,0}}{C_{6,2}} = 0.0667$

0.0667 = 6.67% probability that both marbles are yellow.

What is the probability of one blue and then one yellow?

Total is 100%.

Can be:

Both blue(40%)

Both yellow(6.67%)

One blue and one yellow(x%). So

40 + 6.67 + x = 100

x = 100 - 46.67

x = 53.33

53.33% probability of one blue and then one yellow.

If you are told that both selected marbles are the same color, what is the probability that both are blue?

Conditional probability.

Event A: Both same color

Event B: Both blue

Probability of both being same color:

Both blue(40%)

Both yellow(6.67%)

This means that $P(A) = 0.4 + 0.0667 = 0.4667$

Probability of both being the same color and blue:

40% probability that both are blue, which means that $P(A \cap B) = 0.4$

Desired probability:

$P(B|A) = \frac{P(A \cap B)}{P(A)} = \frac{0.4}{0.4667} = 0.8571$

If you are told that both selected marbles are the same color, 0.8571 = 85.71% probability that both are blue

Eight more then seventimes a number (x) is atleast twenty nine

Mademuasel [1]

Answer:A number increased by seventeen is equal to seventy-three. x + 17 = 73

Some number decreased by seven is thirty-three. x - 7 = 33

A number increased by twelve is forty. x + 12 = 40

A number increased by fifteen is sixty-two. x + 15 = 62

Eight less than a number is nine. x - 8 = 9

A number divided by 11 is 4. x/11 = 4

Seven more than three times a number is 19. 3x + 7 = 19

Four more than five times a number is thirty-six. 5x + 4 = 35

Eight less than nine times a number is eleven. 9x - 8 = 11

Twelve more than four times a number is seven. 4x + 12 = 7

Seven more than triple a number is fifteen. 3x + 7 = 15

Seven times a number increased by eight equals twenty-three. 7x + 8 = 23

Eight more than six times a numbers is eleven. 6x + 8 = 11

Nine times a number increased by thirteen is twelve. 9x + 13 = 12

The quotient of a number and four is seventeen. x/4 = 17

A number increased by seven is twenty-five. x + 7 = 25

Fifty-five is the sum of a number and sixteen. x + 16 = 55

The product of a number and eleven is seventy-five. 11x = 75

Eight times a number increased by eleven is thirty-seven. 8x + 11 = 37

The difference of a number and twelve is thirty-four. x - 12 = 34

The table shows the results of a survey of students in two math classes.

qwelly [4]

P(more than 1 hour of TV | 6th period class) is 0.352.

<h3>What is the probability?</h3>

Probability determines the odds that a random event would happen. The odds of the random event happening lie between 0 and 1.

P(more than 1 hour of TV | 6th period class) = number of 6th period class students who watch tv for more than an hour / total number of students surveyed

12 / (12 + 9 + 5 + 8)

12 / 34 = 0.352

which of the following best describes the technique used to graph the equation using the slope and y-intercept ? Y=5x+10

Vinvika [58]

The slope-intercept is y = mx+b. You can use this as a technique for graphing to make the experience easier. The "5" would be the slope or rise/run of the line. The 10 would be where it started on the y-intercept. You could also say it would be (0,10). Since the slope is positive than it would be going in an upward direction. That is why this technique is good for graphing. I hope this helps you and please put me as the brainliest answer. :)
