A bag contains 15 blue marbles, 5 red marbles, and 11 green marbles. How many blue marbles must be removed
mel-nik [20]

A bag contains 15 blue marbles, 5 red marbles, and 11 green marbles. How many blue marbles must be removed

from the 31 marbles in the bag so that the probability of randomly drawing a blue marble is 1/3?

Answer:

7 blue marbles

Step-by-step explanation:

15 blue

5 red

11 green

Total = 31

Number of Blue marbles that must be removed to obtain a probability of :

P(blue) = 1/3

Probability = required outcome / Total possible outcomes

Let number of blue marble to be removed = x

Number of Blue becomes : 15 - x

Total becomes : 31 - x

P(blue) = 1/3

1/3 = (15 - x) / (31 - x)

1/3 * (31 - x) = 15 - x

(31 - x) / 3 = 15 - x

31 - x = 45 - 3x

-x + 3x = 45 - 31

2x = 14

x = 14 / 2

x = 7

In a running competition, a bronze, silver and gold medal must be given to the top
polet [3.4K]

Assuming there are no ties

Answer:

980100

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's start with the boys(we could also start with girls, it doesn't matter).

We can "choose" one of 11 boys for the gold medal. That athlete can't win any more medals, so there are 10 boys left.

We can then "choose" one of the 10 boys remaining for the silver medal. That athlete can't win any more medals, so there are 9 boys left.

We can lastly "choose" one of the 9 boys remaining for the bronze medal.

That makes 11 possible choices for gold medal * 10 possible choices for silver medal * 9 possible choices for bronze medal = 990 possible choices(for boys).

We can do the exact same for the girls, leaving us with 990 possible choices for the girls.

We then multiply the possible choices together to get 990*990=980100 possible ways to hand out the six medals
