A box has 8 beads of the same size, but all are different colors. Tamy draws a bead randomly from the box, notes its color, and

then puts the bead back in the box. She repeats this 3 times. What is the probability that Tamy would pick a red bead on the first draw, then a white bead, and finally a red bead again?

P(red bead) = 1/8
P(white bead) = 1/8
P(red bead) = 1/8

P(red,white,red) = 1/8 * 1/8 * 1/8 = 1/512 <==

Answer: \frac{1}{512}

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: The total number of beads of same size but different color in a box = 8

Since Tamy draws a bead randomly from the box, notes its color, and then puts the bead back in the box. Thus, all the events are independent.

The probability of drawing one bead (any colour) from the box =\frac{1}{8}

Also, she repeats this 3 times and all the events are independent of each other.

Therefore, the probability that Tamy would pick a red bead on the first draw, then a white bead, and finally a red bead again =\frac{1}{8}\times\frac{1}{8}\times\frac{1}{8}=\frac{1}{512}

500/25=100/y<br> help me in this :(
kupik [55]

Answer:

\boxed{\boxed{\sf  1  \ by \ 2  }}

500/25 = 100/y

100/5 = 100/y

20 = 100/Y

200/1 = 100/Y

By cross multiplication

200 × Y = 100 × 1

Y = 100 /200

Y = 1/2

A construction worker is sent to the store to buy more than 30 lb of roofing nails. The nails are sold in 5 lb boxes and 10 lb b
trapecia [35]

Answer:

The answer is A: 5x + 10y > 30. That is, the combination of boxes must be greater than 30 since the requirement is to have more than 30 lb of nails.

Step-by-step explanation:

The worker can buy a combination of boxes, as long as the total is greater than 30 lb. Multiply 5 lb by x and add that to 10 lb times y to get the total, which must exceed 30 lb.
