Two balls are chosen randomly from an urn containing 8 white, 4 black, and 2 orange balls. Suppose that we win $2 for each black

ball selected and we lose $1 for each white ball selected. Let X denote our winnings (where negative values are possible). Determine the possible values for X, then determine the probability mass function for X.

Answer:

The objective of the problem is obtained below:

From the information, an urn consists of, 4 black, 2 orange balls and 8 white.

The person loses $1 for each white ball selected, no money is lost or gained for any orange balls picked and win $2 for each black ball selected. Let the random variable X denotes the winnings.

No winnings probability= 0.011

Probability of winning $1=0.3516

Probability of winning $2= 0.0879

Probability of winning $4= 0.0659

Ann increased the quantities of all the ingredients in a recipe by 60\%60%60, percent. She used 808080 grams (\text{g})(g)left p
kari74 [83]

Answer:

50 grams

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the amount of cheese required by the recipe be "x"

Ann increased 60% from original amount and then used up 80 grams. Thus:

<em>Original, increased by 60%, became 80</em>

<em />

This translated to algebraic equation would be:

x + 0.6x = 80

<u>Note:</u>  60% = 60/100 = 0.6

So we can solve the above equation for "x" and get our answer. Shown below:

x + 0.6x = 80\\1.6x=80\\x=\frac{80}{1.6}\\x=50

Hence,

the recipe required 50 grams of cheese

Find the difference (20m+3)-(7m-5)
xz_007 [3.2K]

Answer:

Simplifying

(20m + 3) + -1(7m + -5) = 0

Reorder the terms:

(3 + 20m) + -1(7m + -5) = 0

Remove parenthesis around (3 + 20m)

3 + 20m + -1(7m + -5) = 0

Reorder the terms:

3 + 20m + -1(-5 + 7m) = 0

3 + 20m + (-5 * -1 + 7m * -1) = 0

3 + 20m + (5 + -7m) = 0

Reorder the terms:

3 + 5 + 20m + -7m = 0

Combine like terms: 3 + 5 = 8

8 + 20m + -7m = 0

Combine like terms: 20m + -7m = 13m

8 + 13m = 0

Solving

8 + 13m = 0

Solving for variable 'm'.

Move all terms containing m to the left, all other terms to the right.

Add '-8' to each side of the equation.

8 + -8 + 13m = 0 + -8

Combine like terms: 8 + -8 = 0

0 + 13m = 0 + -8

13m = 0 + -8

Combine like terms: 0 + -8 = -8

13m = -8

Divide each side by '13'.

m = -0.6153846154

Simplifying

m = -0.6153846154Step-by-step explanation:
