Answer:
1) Rolling a 3 is unlikely and rolling a 4 is unlikely too.
2) The probability of niki drawing a green marble is likely and the probability of tom drawing a blue marble is unlikely.
Step-by-step explanation:
1) Since there is only one 3 out of 6 numbers, the probability of that outcome is 1/6, which is low. The same thing goes for throwing a 4.
2) The reason why it is equally likely for niki drawing a green is because there are more green marbles than the other marbles. You could see it as a fraction as well, which is 4/9 Which is very close to one half (4.5). For tom, there are less blue marbles which brings it down to the unlikely spot (fraction = 3/9)
Hopefully this helps, and hopefully it isn't too confusing.
Correct scientific notation has only one number to the left of the decimal point.
The correct one would be: 3.4 x 10(exponent 3)
Answer:
16
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
1.8 minutes or 108 seconds
Step-by-step explanation:
The question tells us that the larger belt moves 300 lbs in 2 mins. And this is equal to 150 lb per minute
The question also tells us that a smaller belt moves the same quantity of 300 lbs in 18 mins. And this is equal to an average of 16.667 lb per min.
Both belts will move at a rate of 166.667 lb per min.
So it will take them 300 / 166.667 = 1.8 min or 108 s.
Therefore, the answer is 1.8 min
