Answer:

a. Probability of Pulling one of each = 0.03175

b. Probability of Pulling 4 Honey Crisp = 0.001797

Probability of 2 G.Smith = 0.1144

Probability of 1 Red Delicious = 0.4559

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Granny Smiths = 23

Honey Crisp = 14

Red Delicious = 31

Required

- Probability of Pulling out one of each

- Probability of Pulling out 4 Honey Crisp; 2 Granny Smiths; 1 Red Delicious

First, the total number of apple needs to be calculated.

Total = Granny Smiths + Honey Crisp + Red Delicious

Total = 23 + 14 + 31

Total = 68

Probability of Pulling 1 of each

= P(Granny Smiths) and P(Henry Ford) and P(Red Delicious)

- Granny Smiths;

This is calculated by dividing number of Granny Smiths apples by total number of apples.

Probability = 23/68

Similarly,

Probability of Pulling Honey Crisp= Number of Honey Crisp divided by total

Probability = 14/68

Probability = 7/34

Probability of Pulling Red Delicious = Number of Red Delicious divided by total

Probability = 31/68

So, Probability of Pulling 1 of each = 23/68 * 7/34 * 31/68

Probability = 4991/157216

Probability = 0.03175

Probability of Pulling out 4 Honey Crisp;

= P(Honey) * P(Honey) * P(Honey) * P(Honey)

= (P(Honey))⁴

= (7/34)⁴

= 2401/1336336

= 0.001797

Probability of Pulling 2 Granny Smiths;

= P(Granny) * P(Granny)

= (P(Granny))²

= (23/68)²

= 529/4624

= 0.1144

Probability of 1 Red Delicious

= number of red delicious divided by total

= 31/68

= 0.4559

What fraction is 1 yard 2 feet and 6 inches
MA_775_DIABLO [31]

Answer:

Make sure you convert these numbers into one unit. Convert everything to yard. Just convert the feet and inches in yard since it's the biggest unit, and then add them together. You should get a fraction not a whole number.

Solve the following equation by completing the square. 3x^2-3x-5=13
mr Goodwill [35]

we'll start off by grouping some

\bf 3x^2-3x-5=13\implies (3x^2-3x)-5=13\implies 3(x^2-x)-5=13 \\\\\\ 3(x^2-x)=18\implies (x^2-x)=\cfrac{18}{3}\implies (x^2-x)=6\implies (x^2-x+~?^2)=6

so we have a missing guy at the end in order to get the a perfect square trinomial from that group, hmmm, what is it anyway?

well, let's recall that a perfect square trinomial is

\bf \qquad \textit{perfect square trinomial} \\\\ (a\pm b)^2\implies a^2\pm \stackrel{\stackrel{\text{\small 2}\cdot \sqrt{\textit{\small a}^2}\cdot \sqrt{\textit{\small b}^2}}{\downarrow }}{2ab} + b^2

so we know that the middle term in the trinomial, is really 2 times the other two without the exponent, well, in our case, the middle term is just "x", well is really -x, but we'll add the minus later, we only use the positive coefficient and variable, so we'll use "x" to find the last term.

\bf \stackrel{\textit{middle term}}{2(x)(?)}=\stackrel{\textit{middle term}}{x}\implies ?=\cfrac{x}{2x}\implies ?=\cfrac{1}{2}

so, there's our fellow, however, let's recall that all we're doing is borrowing from our very good friend Mr Zero, 0, so if we add (1/2)², we also have to subtract (1/2)²

\bf \left( x^2 -x +\left[ \cfrac{1}{2} \right]^2-\left[ \cfrac{1}{2} \right]^2 \right)=6\implies \left( x^2 -x +\left[ \cfrac{1}{2} \right]^2 \right)-\left[ \cfrac{1}{2} \right]^2=6 \\\\\\ \left(x-\cfrac{1}{2} \right)^2=6+\cfrac{1}{4}\implies \left(x-\cfrac{1}{2} \right)^2=\cfrac{25}{4}\implies x-\cfrac{1}{2}=\sqrt{\cfrac{25}{4}} \\\\\\ x-\cfrac{1}{2}=\cfrac{\sqrt{25}}{\sqrt{4}}\implies x-\cfrac{1}{2}=\cfrac{5}{2}\implies x=\cfrac{5}{2}+\cfrac{1}{2}\implies x=\cfrac{6}{2}\implies \boxed{x=3}
