Answer:  The correct option is (B) \dfrac{1}{50}.

Step-by-step explanation:  Given that there are two blue, one yellow, one white, one orange, two red, one pink, one purple and one green gumball.

We are to find the probability of picking a blue gumball then a yellow gum ball after replacing the first gumball.

The total number of gumballs is equal to the number of elements in the sample space for the event of picking a ball from the collection.

So,

n(S)=2+1+1+1+2+1+1+1\\\\\Rightarrow n(S)=10.

Let, E be the event of picking a blue gumball.

Then, n(E) = 2.

and let F be the event of picking a yellow gumball after putting the first ball back.

Then, n(F)=1.

Therefore, the probability of picking a blue gumball then a yellow gum ball after replacing the first gumball will be

P\\\\=P(E)\times P(F)\\\\\\=\dfrac{n(E)}{n(S)}\times \dfrac{n(F)}{n(S)}\\\\\\=\dfrac{2}{10}\times\dfrac{1}{10}\\\\\\=\dfrac{1}{50}.

Thus, the required probability is \dfrac{1}{50}.

Option (B) is CORRECT.

The answer is B) 1/50

Probability of picking Blue-2/10 which is 1/5

Probability of picking Yellow-1/10

1/5x1/10=1/50

Answer:

He can afford 5 large cheese pizzas.

Step-by-step explanation:

$40 ÷ $7.50 = 5.333333

You cannot buy 1/3 of a pizza, so you round the number to a whole number.

5.333333 ----> 5

n200080 [17]

Answer:

part A: expression 1: 6(8m+2)

          expression 2: 6m+12+42m

Part B: 6(m+2+7m)= 6(8m+2)

combine like terms is 6(m+2+7m), so it is 6(2+8m) or 6(8m+2)

6(8m+2)= 6(8m+2)

Part C: 6m+12+42m=6(m+2+7m)

m=0

6(0+2+7(0))=6(0)+12+42(0)

6(2)= 12

12=12
