A box contains 20 red balls, 25 white balls, and 55 blue balls. Suppose that 10 balls are selected at random one at a time with

replacement; that is, each selected ball is replaced in the box before the next selection is made. Determine the probability that at least one color will be missing from the 10 selected balls.

Answer:

0.164 = 16.4% probability that at least one color will be missing from the 10 selected balls.

Step-by-step explanation:

A probability is the number of desired outcomes divided by the number of total outcomes.

Determine the probability that at least one color will be missing from the 10 selected balls.

Red missing:

Each time, there are 55 + 25 = 80 non-red balls, out of 100. So, in each of the 10 trials, 80% = 0.8 probability of not picking a red ball. The probability that no red ball is picked is given by:

(0.8)^10 = 0.1074

White missing:

55 + 20 = 75 non-white balls, out of 100, in each trial. The probability that no white ball is picked is given by:

(0.75)^10 = 0.0563

Blue missing:

45 non-blue balls, out of 100. The probability that no blue ball is picked is given by:

(0.45)^10 = 0.0003

Total:

0.1074 + 0.0563 + 0.0003 = 0.164

0.164 = 16.4% probability that at least one color will be missing from the 10 selected balls.

What is the value of E?
kozerog [31]
Hello!

∠E and the angle measuring 119 degrees (we'll refer to this as ∠A) can be classified as supplementary angles. Supplementary angles are two angles whose measures add to a sum of 180 degrees (a straight line). Therefore, we can conclude that sum of ∠E and ∠A is 180 degrees. We can use this information to create the following equation:

∠E + 119 = 180

Now subtract 119 from both sides of the equation:

∠E = 61

We have now proven that ∠E is equal to 61 degrees.

I hope this helps!

Find the median of the data
nadya68 [22]
The median is the middle number of the data plot. Since there 30 numbers, there isn't a exact middle. To find the median you must add the two middle number then divide by 2. 

In this case you must add 87 and 88 which gives 175.

Then divide 175 by 2 which gives 87.5

87.5 is the median
