Answer:

There are a maximum of 2 peaches in the basket.

Step-by-step explanation:

There are 30 fruits in a basket, all apples and peaches.

If 3 fruits are taken out of the basket, it is said that at least one of the 3 fruits would be an apple.

For this to be possible, it means, picking 3 fruits, at random from the basket guarantees at least 1 of them being an apple.

This means that the maximum number of peaches obtainable from the basket is 2, to guarantee a sure case of the last fruit of 3 selected fruits being an Apple. There has to be a minimum of 28 apples in the basket for this statement to be absolutely non-contestable.

Hope this Helps!!!

Tia performed an experiment where she flipped a coin 200 times. The coin landed heads up 92 times and tails up 108 times. Which
ra1l [238]

Total number of times she flipped a coin =200.

Total number of heads in the experiment=92

Total number of tails in the experiment=108

Therefore probability of the coun landing heads up in this experiment is 0.5

In the above experiment, the probability of the coin landing heads up is

P(H)= 92/200 = 0.46

In the above experiment, the probability of the coin landing tails up is P(T) = 108/200 = 0.54

The ratio obj represent the experimental probability of the coin landing heads up in this experiment

Therefore the correct option is 1.

GaryK [48]

Answer:

.85

Step-by-step explanation:

Compound interest formula

PV(1+\frac{i}{n})^{nt}

Melanie:

3800(1+\frac{.02}{4})^{(6*4)\\}\\=3800(1+.005)^{24}\\3800*1.1272=4283.21

Sebastian:

3800(1+\frac{.02}{12})^{12*6}\\3800(1.0017)^{72}\\3800*1.1274=4284.06

4824.06-4283.21= .85
