Using the hypergeometric distribution, it is found that there is a 0.4286 = 42.86% probability of getting 2 of the same colour.
The marbles are chosen without replacement, hence the <em>hypergeometric </em>distribution is used to solve this question.
<h3>What is the hypergeometric distribution formula?</h3>
The formula is:


The parameters are:
- x is the number of successes.
- N is the size of the population.
- n is the size of the sample.
- k is the total number of desired outcomes.
In this problem:
- There is a total of 3 + 4 = 7 marbles, hence N = 7.
- Of those, 3 are blue, hence k = 3.
- 2 marbles will be taken, hence n = 2.
The probability of getting 2 of the same colour is the sum of P(X = 0), which is both red, with P(X = 2), which is both blue, then:



Hence:

0.4286 = 42.86% probability of getting 2 of the same colour.

Answer: 700 miles.
Step-by-step explanation:
1. You know that 23% of the total distance of the flight from Albuquerque New Mexico to Austin Texas is 161 miles.
2. Then, keeping that information on mind, you can calculate the total distance of the flight (which you call
) as following:

Solve for
. Then, you obtain that the result is:

when multiplying two binomials together we use the F.O.I.L. method:
First
Outer
Inner
Last
(7-3i)(2-i)
First: 7 * 2 ..... Outter: 7 * -i .... Inner: -3i * 2 ...... Last: -3i * -i
First: 14 ...... Outter= -7i ..... Inner: -6i .... Last: 3i^2
putting this together we get 14-7i-6i+2i^2
We combine like terms and end up with 2i^2-13i+14
