shirts. Alan is looking for a large shirt. He starts grabbing shirts one at a time and checking the size. After he checks each shirt, he leaves it outside the bin. What is the probability that at least one of the first four shirts he checks is a large?

Answer:

P(at least 1 large) = 0.648

P(at least 1 large) = 64.8%

Step-by-step explanation:

We have 7 small shirts, 8 medium shirts and 4 large shirts

Total number of shirts = 7 + 8 + 4 = 19 shirts

The probability that at least one of the first four shirts he checks is a large is given by

P(at least 1 large) = 1 - P(no large)

So first we need to find the probability that the none of the first four shirts he checks are large.

For the first check, there are 15 small and medium shirts and total 19 shirts so,

15/19

For the second check, there are 14 small and medium shirts and total 18 shirts left so,

14/18

For the third check, there are 13 small and medium shirts and total 17 shirts left so,

13/17

For the forth check, there are 12 small and medium shirts and total 16 shirts left so,

12/16

the probability of not finding the large shirt is,

P(no large) = 15/19*14/18*13/17*12/16

P(no large) = 0.352

Therefore, the probability of finding at least one large shirt is,

P(at least 1 large) = 1 - P(no large)

P(at least 1 large) = 1 - 0.352

P(at least 1 large) = 0.648

P(at least 1 large) = 64.8%

Find the quotient 3/18 divided by 7/21
igor_vitrenko [27]
This is the same as 3/18 x 21/7, which you can simplify to 1/6 x 3, which is 3/6 also a half. So the answer is 1/2

Answer:

\begin{gathered}{\Large{\textsf{\textbf{\underline{\underline\color{brown}{Given:}}}}}}\end{gathered}

  • {\dashrightarrow \sf{Principle = Rs.30000}}
  • {\dashrightarrow \sf {Time = 4 \: years}}
  • \dashrightarrow \sf{Rate = 30\%}
  • \begin{gathered}\end{gathered}

\begin{gathered}{\Large{\textsf{\textbf{\underline{\underline\color{brown}{To Find:}}}}}}\end{gathered}

  • \dashrightarrow{\sf{Simple \: Interest }}

\begin{gathered}{\Large{\textsf{\textbf{\underline{\underline\color{brown}{Using Formula:}}}}}}\end{gathered}

\dag{\underline{\boxed{\sf{ S.I = \dfrac{P \times R \times T}{100}}}}}

Where

  • \dashrightarrow{\sf{S.I = Simple \:  Interest }}
  • {\dashrightarrow{\sf{P = Principle }}}
  • {\dashrightarrow{\sf{ R = Rate }}}
  • {\dashrightarrow{\sf{T = Time}}}

\begin{gathered}\end{gathered}

\begin{gathered}{\Large{\textsf{\textbf{\underline{\underline\color{brown}{Solution:}}}}}}\end{gathered}

{\quad {: \implies{\sf{ S.I =  \bf{\dfrac{P \times R \times T}{100}}}}}}

Substituting the values

{\quad {: \implies{\sf{ S.I =  \bf{\dfrac{30000 \times 30\times 4}{100}}}}}}

{\quad {: \implies{\sf{ S.I =  \bf{\dfrac{30000 \times 120}{100}}}}}}

{\quad {: \implies{\sf{ S.I =  \bf{\dfrac{3600000}{100}}}}}}

{\quad {: \implies{\sf{ S.I =  \bf{\cancel{\dfrac{3600000}{100}}}}}}}

{\quad {: \implies{\sf{ S.I =  \bf{Rs.36000}}}}}

{\dag{\underline{\boxed{\sf{ S.I ={Rs.36000}}}}}}

  • Henceforth,The Simple Interest is Rs.36000..

To paint his room ted prepared 2 gallons of a paint mixture at a ratio of 3:1 white to blue. If he later decide to dilute the co
earnstyle [38]

Answer:

White = 1.67 gallons

Blue = 0.33 gallons

Step-by-step explanation:

White : blue = 3 : 1

Total ratio = 3 + 1

= 4

Gallons = 2

White = 3 /4 × 2

= 6 /4

= 3/2 gallons

Blue = 1 / 4 × 2

= 2/4

= 1/2

If he later decide to dilute the color to a ratio of 5:1

Total ratio = 5 + 1

= 6

Total gallons = 2

White = 5 / 6 × 2

= 10/6

= 5/3 gallons

Or

= 1.67 gallons

Blue = 1 / 6 × 2

= 2 / 6

= 1/3 gallons

Or

= 0.33 gallons
