A gumball dispenser has 38 orange gumballs, 27 purple ones, and 15 yellow ones. The dispenser operates such that one quarter del

ivers 1 gumball. (a) Using three quarters, what is the probability of obtaining 3 gumballs in the order orange, purple, orange?b) using 1 quarter, what is the probability of obtaining 1 gumball that is either purple or yellow?
c) using 3 quarters, what is the probability that of the 3 gumballs obtained, exactly 1 will be purple and 1 will be yellow?

Answer:1). 0.077

2). 0.525

3). 0.09366

Step-by-step explanation:

Total number of balls = 38 orange + 28 purple + 15 yellow= 80 balls.

1). Probability of 3 balls in order of orange, purple, orange.

Probability = (38/80) *(27/79) *(37/78)

=0.475*0.3418*0.474

= 0.077

2). Probability of either purple or yellow

Probability= (27/80) + (15/80)

= 0.525

3). Probability of exactly 1 color each in 3 balls

Probability = 3((38*27*15)/(80*79*78))

= 3*(15390/492969)

=3*0.03122

=0.09366

A group of rowdy teenagers near a wind turbine decide to place a pair of
Marrrta [24]

Answer:

a) Hence the equation of the sinusoidal function that describes the height of the shorts in terms of time is y = 9 + 7* sin(\pi * t / 15 - \pi  / 6)

b) Hence the height of the shorts at exactly t = 10 minutes, to

the nearest tenth of a meter is 5.5 meters

Step-by-step explanation:

a) The wind turbine blade traverses a circular path as it rotates with time (t), whose time variation is given by the following trajectory equation :

x^2 + (y-yc)^2 = R^2 ,

where  

R = (16 m - 2 m)/2 (since diameter = maximum height - minimum height of the pink short)

= 14 m / 2

= 7 m (radius of the circle)

Also, center of the circle will be at (0, 2 + R) i.e (0,9)

So,  is the trajectory path equation to the circle

Let x = 7* cos(w*t + \phi ) & y = 9 + 7* sin(w* t + \phi) be the parametric form of the above circle equation which represent the position of the pink shorts at the tip of the blade at time t  

At t= 10s, y = 16 m so we have,

9 + 7 * sin(10* w + \phi) = 16 ---------------(1)

Also, at t= 25s, y =2 m so we have,

9 + 7* sin(25 * w +\phi) = 2--------------(2)

Solving we have, 10* w + \phi = \pi/2 & 25*w + \phi = 3*pi/2

15* w = \pi\\\\w = \pi/15 & \phi = \pi/2 - 10*\pi/15 = -\pi / 6  

Therefore y = 9 + 7* sin(\pi * t / 15 - \pi  / 6) is the instantaneous height of the pink short at time t ( in seconds)

b) At t= 10minutes = 10 * 60 s = 600s, we have,

y = 9 + 7 * sin(\pi * 600/15 - \pi / 6)\\\\= 9 + 7 * sin(40* \pi - \pi / 6)

= 5.5 meters (pink short will be at 5.5 meters above ground level at t= 10 minutes)
