Answer:

a) 12/323

b) 8/233

Explanation:

a) The probability of a red ball being drawn is 12/38, or in a simplified fraction, 6/19. To find the probability that 3 are red you would multiply the probability of the fraction for each, except subtracting one from the total each time as the drawn is done without replacement. This is done as follows: 6/19 × 6/18 × 6/17= 12/323

b) The probability of drawing a blue ball is 8/38, or 4/19. To find that the first one is blue and the rest are red, the equation is done as follows: 4/19 × 6/18 × 6/17 = 8/233

(hopefully I did this right)

PLZ HELP I WILL GIVE BRAINLIST!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!111
Butoxors [25]

Answer:

1. It flies because of four forces. These same four forces help an airplane fly. The four forces are lift, thrust, drag, and weight. As a Frisbee flies through the air, lift holds it up

2. lift

In order for an aircraft to rise into the air, a force must be created that equals or exceeds the force of gravity. This force is called lift. In heavier-than-air craft, lift is created by the flow of air over an airfoil. The shape of an airfoil causes air to flow faster on top than on bottom.

3. Gravity and drag (air resistance, which is friction caused by air rubbing against the plane) try to pull the plane down and slow its speed. A plane must be built so that lift and thrust are stronger than the pull of gravity and drag by just the right amount.

4. If lift becomes greater than weight, then the plane will accelerate upward. If the weight is greater than the lift, then the plane will accelerate downward. When the thrust becomes greater than the drag, the plane will accelerate forward.

5.The 4 Forces of Flight. In level flight, lift equals weight and thrust equals drag when the plane flies at constant velocity. Maintaining a steady flight requires a balance, often described as an equilibrium of all the forces acting upon an airplane.

Thank you and please rate me as brainliest as it will help me to level up
