Answer:

option a)

0.286

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that,

number of red pens in cup = 5

number of black pens in cup = 10

number of pen randomly selected = 3

There are 5 red pens and 10 black pens. So there are 5 + 10 = 15 pens in all.

probability of having all red pens = (5/15 x 4/14 x 3/13)

                                                       = 2/91

probability of having all black pens = (10/15 x 9/14 x 8/13)

                                                           = 24/91

probability that all pen are of same colour = 24/91 + 2/91

                                                                      =  2/7

                                                                      ≈ 0.286

Solving Exponential and Logarithmic Equations In Exercise, solve for x.<br> 4e2x - 3 - 5 = 0
Deffense [45]

Answer:

Value of x will be 0.1515

Step-by-step explanation:

We have given the equation 4e^{2x}-3-5=0

We have top fond the value of x using exponent and logarithmic property

So 4e^{2x}-3-5=0

4e^{2x}-8=0

4e^{2x}=8

e^{2x}=2

Taking log both side

lne^{2x}=ln2

2x=0.3010

x = 0.1515
