If the lily pad patch doubles every day, and it's covering the entire lake on the 48th day, then the day before it must have been covering half of the lake. It would take 47 days for the patch to cover half of the lake.

DedPeter [7]

Answer:

The probability of getting a pair of red socks is 0.322

Step-by-step explanation:

According to the given data we have that A drawer contains 11 identical red socks and 8 identical black socks, hence, the total number of socks is 19, therefore, in order to calculate the probability of getting a pair of red socks we would have to use the following formula:

probability of getting a pair of red socks=11C2/19C2

probability of getting a pair of red socks=55/171

probability of getting a pair of red socks=0.322

The probability of getting a pair of red socks is 0.322
