Answer:

<h2>0.218</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

Probability is the likelihood or chance that an event will occur.

Probability = Expected outcome of event/ Total outcome

If a bag contains 3 red marbles, 7 blue marbles and 5 green marbles, the total number of marbles in the bag will be the total outcome i.e 3+7+5 = 15

If two blue marbles are drawn, the expected outcome in both cases is 7 since there are 7 blue marbles in the bag.

Probability of drawing the first blue marble = 7/15

Probability of drawing the second blue marble = 7/15

Probability that both marbles drawn will be blue =  7/15*7/15

= 49/225

= 0.218 (to nearest 1000th)

At noon, ship A is 130 km west of ship B. Ship A is sailing east at 25 km/h and ship B is sailing north at 20 km/h. How fast is
Hitman42 [59]

Answer:

answer = 12.87 km/h

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Ship A is sailing east at 25 km/h = \frac{dx}{dt}

ship B is sailing north at 20 km/h =\frac{dy}{dt}

here x and y are the  sailing at t = 4 : 00 pm for ship A and B respectively

so we get x = 4 ×25 =100 km/h

                 y = 4× 20 = 80 km/h

let z is the distance between the ships, we need to find \frac{dz}{dt} at t = 4 hr

At noon, ship A is 130 km west of ship B (12:00 pm)

so equation will be

z^2 = (130-x)^2 + y^2......................(i)\\put x = 100 and y = 80 \\\\we |  | get \\

z^2 = 30^2 + 80^2\\z =\sqrt{7300} km/h

derivative first equation w . r. to t we get

2z\frac{dz}{dt} =-2(130-x)\frac{dx}{dt}+2y\frac{dy}{dt}

\frac{dz}{dt} =\frac{1}{z}[(x -130)\frac{dx}{dt} +y\frac{dy}{dt}]

\frac{dz}{dt} = \frac{( -20\times25 + 80\times20)}{\sqrt{7300} }

     = \frac{1100}{85.44}\\  = 12.87km/h
