Answer:
6 socks
Step-by-step explanation:
What we must do is calculate the probability of this happening, that he takes out two black socks in the first two taken out.
There are 12 black socks and in total they are 24, therefore the probability of drawing 1 is:
12/24
and now the probability of getting another one is 11 (there is one less outside) and in total they are 23:
11/23
the final probability is the multiplication of these events:
(12/24) * (11/23)
P = 0.24
Now, to know how many you should get, we multiply the probability by the total number of socks, that is:
0.24 * 24 = 5.76
So you must take out at least 6 socks for the above to happen.
I don’t know how to solve those type of problems sorry
Answer:
x + y = 36.....Equation 1
x = 7 + 2y...... Equation 2
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the number of:
Orange goldfish = x
Black gold fish = y
Anna has a total of 36 goldfish in her aquarium, some are orange and some are black.
x + y = 36.....Equation 1
The number of orange goldfish is 7 more than twice the number of black goldfish.
x = 7 + 2y...... Equation 2
We can rewrite this as:
x - 2y = 7..... Equation 2
The system of equations below that can be used to describe the number of black and orange goldfish in Anna's aquarium is :
x + y = 36.....Equation 1
x = 7 + 2y...... Equation 2
Answer:
3x +5+2x+44+110+123+136=360
5x+418=360
c. l. t
5x=58
therefore X=11.5
the answer would be b the answer is 114
