Given:

A biased 3-colored spinner was spun 240 times. It landed on Red n times, on Orange 3n times and on Yellow 8n times.

To find:

The expected number of times it land on Red if you spin this spinner 1000 times.

Solution:

A biased 3-colored spinner was spun 240 times. It landed on Red n times, on Orange 3n times and on Yellow 8n times. So,

n+3n+8n=240

12n=240

n=\dfrac{240}{12}

n=20

The value of n is 20. It means the spinner land on red 20 times if the spinner was spun 240 times. So, the probability of getting red is:

P(Red)=\dfrac{20}{240}

P(Red)=\dfrac{1}{12}

If you spin this spinner 1000 times, then the expected number of times to getting red is:

E(Red)=1000\times P(Red)

E(Red)=1000\times \dfrac{1}{12}

E(Red)=83.333...

E(Red)\approx 83

Therefore, the expected number of times to land on red is 83.

Anton [14]

Weight of slab of beeswax isn't given.

Assume slab of beeswax = 36 gram.

Answer:

3 gram

Step-by-step explanation:

Each slab of beeswax = 36 gram

Total weight of all 3 slabs = (3 * 36) = 108 g

Number of same-sized candles to make = 36

The weight of each candle will be ;

Total weight of slabs / number of candles

108 g / 36

Do the 11% off first.

11% of 52$ is 46.38$, then you take $40 off and your total is only $6.38

if you do -40$ first then you have $12 left and 11% off that is $10.68.
