What is the probability that a randomly selected candle is orange scented?

Mathematics
1 answer:
kherson [118]3 years ago
8 0

Since the factory produces equal numbers of 4 types of candles, we can find the number of candles it produces of any given type:

\dfrac{8000 \,\textrm{candles}}{4 \,\textrm{types}} = 2000 \,\dfrac{\textrm{candles}}{\textrm{type}}


We have found that the factory produces 2000 candles of each type. Since the probability of something happening is the number of favored outcomes divided by the number of total outcomes, we can find the probability of an orange scented candle being chosen are:

P(\textrm{orange scented}) = \dfrac{2000}{8000} = \boxed{\dfrac{1}{4}}


The answer is 1/4.

Points m is the midpoint of FG. Can you determine the value of a?
GenaCL600 [577]

Using the midpoint concept, it is found that the value of a is of a = 2.

<h3>What are the coordinates of the points?</h3>

Researching this problem on a search engine, the coordinates are given as follows:

  • F(b + 1, a + 2).
  • M(3,5).
  • (2a, 3b+3).

<h3>What is the midpoint concept?</h3>

The midpoint between two points is the halfway point between them, and is found using the mean of the coordinates.

Hence the following system of equations can be built:

(b + 1 + 2a)/2 = 3.

b + 1 + 2a = 6.

b = 5 - 2a.

(a + 2 + 3b + 3)/2 = 5

a + 3b + 5 = 10

a + 3b = 5.

Since b = 5 - 2a, we have that:

a + 15 - 6a = 5.

5a = 10

a = 10/5

a = 2.

The value of a is of a = 2.

A patient has been ordered medication Cat a dosage of 3680 mg/day. The dosage available is 425 mg each scored tablets. • How man
Tema [17]

Answer:

  • about 8 2/3
  • 11 pm

Step-by-step explanation:

The required dosage in terms of tablets is ...

  3680 mg = (3680 mg)/(425 mg/tab) = 8.66 tabs

We don't know how the tablets are "scored", but in my experience they have a groove that facilitates them being cut in half.

We expect the nurse will administer 8 1/2 tablets per day, for a dose of 3613 mg, slightly short of the ordered 3680 mg.

__

9 doses will be administered over 8 time intervals of 2 hours, so will take until 16 hours after 7 am. The last (1/2) dose will be at 0700 +1600 = 2300 hours, or 11 pm.
