1) Our marbles will be blue, red, and green. You need two fractions that can be multiplied together to make 1/6. There are two sets of numbers that can be multiplied to make 6: 1 and 6, and 2 and 3. If you give the marbles a 1/1 chance of being picked, then there's no way that a 1/6 chance can be present So we need to use a 1/3 and a 1/2 chance. 2 isn't a factor of 6, but 3 is. So we need the 1/3 chance to become apparent first. Therefore, 3 of the marbles will need to be one colour, to make a 1/3 chance of picking them out of the 9. So let's say 3 of the marbles are green. So now you have 8 marbles left, and you need a 1/2 chance of picking another colour. 8/2 = 4, so 4 of the marbles must be another colour, to make a 1/2 chance of picking them. So let's say 4 of the marbles are blue. We know 3 are green and 4 are blue, 3 + 4 is 7, so the last 2 must be red.
The problem could look like this:

A bag contains 4 blue marbles, 2 red marbles, and 3 green marbles. What are the chances she will pick 1 blue and 1 green marble?

You should note that picking the blue first, then the green, will make no difference to the overall probability, it's still 1/6. Don't worry, I checked

2) a - 2%  as a probability is 2/100, or 1/50. The chance of two pudding cups, as the two aren't related, both being defective in the same packet are therefore 1/50 * 1/50, or 1/2500.  

b - 1,000,000/2500 = 400
400 packages are defective each year

A network provider investigates the load of its network. The number of concurrent users is recorded at fifty locations (thousand
beks73 [17]

Answer:

see explaination

Step-by-step explanation:

Using the formulla that

sum of terms number of terms sample mean -

Gives the sample mean as \mu=17.954

Now varaince is given by

s^2=\frac{1}{50-1}\sum_{i=1}^{49}(x_i-19.954)^2=9.97

and the standard deviation is s=\sqrt{9.97}=3.16

b) The standard error is given by

\frac{s}{\sqrt{n-1}}=\frac{3.16}{\sqrt{49}}=0.45

c) For the given data we have the least number in the sample is 12.0 and the greatest number in the sample is 24.1

Q_1=15.83, \mathrm{Median}=17.55 and Q_3=19.88

d) Since the interquartile range is Q_3-Q_1=19.88-15.83=4.05

Now the outlier is a number which is greater than 19.88+1.5(4.05)=25.96

or a number which is less than 15.83-1.5(4.05)=9.76

As there is no such number so the given sample has no outliers

Determine if the triangle with the given sides is acute, obtuse, or right. 36, 49, 60
kotykmax [81]
<span>When given 3 triangle sides, to determine if the triangle is acute, right or obtuse:
</span>1) Square all 3 sides.
2) Sum the squares of the 2 shortest sides.
3) Compare this sum to the square of the 3rd side.

if sum > 3rd side²   Acute Triangle
if sum = 3rd side²   Right Triangle<span>
if sum < 3rd side²   Obtuse Triangle

1) 1,296   2,401   3,600
2) Sum = 3,697
3) </span><span>3,697 is greater than 3,600
Therefore, the triangle is acute.

S_A_V [24]
If one of them got there faster, who will it be?? 147 Miles keep that in mind ok. If they go on the Same route and Drive at Constant Speed. And Alan will start at 1:45 to 4:15. You will see the Difference of, 1:45 = 4:15 The 1 Has switched into the tens and the 4 Has Switched into The 100's. Alan Got there Fast. Margot Got there Faster. If you can Solve The Equation y=64x It will be 36y. 36 Miles speed. Well they need gas? we will find out later. Margot Got to City a To City B. so the Answer is. Margot Got there Fast Before Alan.
