An urn contains r red balls and b blue balls. One ball is selected at random from this urn, its color is recorded and it is retu

rned to the urn along with m additional balls of the same color as chosen. Another single ball is randomly selected from the urn (now containing r b m balls) and it is observed that the ball is blue. What is the conditional probability that the first ball selected is red given that the 2nd ball selected is observed to be blue?

Answer:

Zero

Step-by-step explanation:

The probability of the ball being red after first selection is = (r) ÷ (r+b)

The probability of the ball being blue after first selection is = (b) ÷ (r+b)

If the ball selected is red, the total number of balls after its returned together with m number of red balls is = r+b+m

The probability of the  selection doesn't depend on the second selection, hence condition probability is zero.

However the probability of the second selection depends on the first selection.

Distribute The 4 In Problem Number 2. (4*2.5X)+(4*1.25) = 77
Simplify. 10X+5 = 77. Now, Subtract 5 From Both Sides. 
10X = 77-5
10X = 72.
Now, Divide.
X = 72/10. 
X = 7.2.
For 13, We Have This:
3/5p+2/3 = 8.
Now, Subtract 2/3. 
3/5p = 7 1/3
Now, Divide. 
7 1/3 Needs To Be Converted To An Improper Fraction. 
It Becomes 22/3.
22    5    110
--- * --- = ----
 3     3      9
Now, Make Into A Proper Fraction.
It Becomes 12 And 2/9.

What is A number divided by 82
lara [203]

Answer:

Hey there, Lets solve this step by step.  

A number t divided by 82  

Let the number be represented by y.  

t divided by 82 = t / 8  

Therefore-  

 

In algebraic expressions, "y" is normally used as the dependent variable and "x" is normally used as the independent variable, instead of other variables. So that is why i used the variable y in the equation.
