She will use 42 purple beads.

Explanation
We will use a proportion to solve this. 

The ratio of blue to purple beads is 4:3, or 4/3.
We know she uses 56 blue beads and an unknown amount, x, of purple beads.  This gives us 56/x.

Together, we have
4/3 = 56/x

Cross multiply:
4*x = 3*56
4x = 168

Divide both sides by 4:
4x/4 = 168/4
x = 42

Answer: 24 beads

Step-by-step explanation:

Jamie is making a beaded necklace having the ratio of blue beads to purple beads as 4:3 and the total beads used by Jamie is 56. This information can be written as:

Ratio of blue heads= 4

Ratio of purple beads= 3

Total ratio of beads= 4+3 = 7

Total beads used = 56 beads

The number of purple beads used will be= 3/7 × 56

= 3 × 8

= 24 beads

The number of purple beads used is 24

s344n2d4d5 [400]

Kevin installed a certain brand of automatic garage door opener that utilizes a transmitter control with four independent​ switches, each one set on or off. The receiver​ (wired to the​ door) must be set with the same pattern as the transmitter. If six neighbors with the same type of opener set their switches​ independently.<u>The probability of at least one pair of neighbors using the same​ settings is 0.65633</u>

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Step 1</u>

In the question it is given that

Automatic garage door opener utilizes a transmitter control with four independent​ switches

<u>So .the number of Combinations possible with the Transmitters </u>=

2*2*2*2= 16

<u> Step 2</u>

Probability of at least one pair of neighbors using the same settings = 1- Probability of All Neighbors using different settings.

= 1- 16*15*14*13*12*11/(16^6)

<u> Step 3</u>

Probability of at least one pair of neighbors using the same settings=

= 1- 0.343666

<u> Step 4</u>

<u>So the probability of at least </u>one pair of neighbors using the same settings

is  0.65633
