Answer:

L=15 W=12 15*12 = 180

Step-by-step explanation:

W*L = area

W*(W+3) = 180

Do the distributive

W^+3 W-180=0

Find 2 numbers that when multiplied ,the result is -180

and when added the result is 3

- 12* 15 = -180

-12 +15 = 3

a bag contains eleven counters. five are white. a counter is taken out the bag and is not replaced. a second counter is taken ou

Fed [463]

Answer:

$\displaystyle P(A)=\frac{6}{11}$

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Probabilities</u>

The question describes an event where two counters are taken out of a bag that originally contains 11 counters, 5 of which are white.

Let's call W to the event of picking a white counter in any of the two extractions, and N when the counter is not white. The sample space of the random experience is

$\Omega=\{WW,WN,NW,NN\}$

We are required to compute the probability that only one of the counters is white. It means that the favorable options are

$A=\{WN,NW\}$

Let's calculate both probabilities separately. At first, there are 11 counters, and 5 of them are white. Thus the probability of picking a white counter is

$\displaystyle \frac{5}{11}$

Once a white counter is out, there are only 4 of them and 10 counters in total. The probability to pick a non-white counter is now

$\displaystyle \frac{6}{10}$

Thus the option WN has the probability

$\displaystyle P(WN)=\frac{5}{11}\cdot \frac{6}{10}=\frac{30}{110}=\frac{3}{11}$

Now for the second option NW. The initial probability to pick a non-white counter is

$\displaystyle \frac{6}{11}$

The probability to pick a white counter is

$\displaystyle \frac{5}{10}$

Thus the option NW has the probability

$\displaystyle P(NW)=\frac{6}{11}\cdot \frac{5}{10}=\frac{30}{110}=\frac{3}{11}$

The total probability of event A is the sum of both

$\displaystyle P(A)=\frac{3}{11}+\frac{3}{11}=\frac{6}{11}$

$\boxed{\displaystyle P(A)=\frac{6}{11}}$

shusha [124]

You do 390/100 = 180/x then 390×X=390X
180×100=18000
390X=18000
390X÷390=X
18000÷390=46.15384615=46%
