Answer:

4 elements of the sample space will have a purple ball

There are 10 elements altogether

Step-by-step explanation:

Probability is given by number of possible outcomes ÷ number of total outcomes

Number of purple balls = 12, number of green balls = 13, total number of balls = 12+13 = 25

Probability (a ball drawn is purple) = 12/25

If a purple ball is drawn, two coins are tossed

1 coin has 2 elements

2 coins have 2×2 = 4 elements

Probability (a ball drawn is not purple) = 1 - 12/25 = (25-12)/25 = 13/25

If a ball drawn is not purple, three coins are tossed

1 coin has 2 elements

3 coins have 3×2 = 6 elements

Total elements = 4 + 6= 10 elements

A survey was given to 339 people asking whether people like dogs and/or cats.
lina2011 [118]

Answer:

80

Step-by-step explanation:

Think of it as a Venn diagram.  One circle is the people who like dogs, and one circle is the people who like cats.  The overlap is people who like both dogs and cats.

190 people in the survey said they like dogs.  That includes the people who like both dogs and cats.

141 people in the survey said they like cats.  That includes the people who like both dogs and cats.

If we simply add the two numbers together, we'll be counting the overlap twice.  So to find the total number of people who like dogs or cats, we have to subtract one overlap.

dogs or cats = 190 + 141 − x

Therefore:

190 + 141 − x + 88 = 339

419 − x = 339

x = 80

80 people said they liked both cats and dogs.
