Answer:

The probability is P = 0.08

Step-by-step explanation:

We have:

2 pink balls

7 purple balls

6 white balls

So the total number of balls is just:

2 + 7 + 6 = 15

We want to find the probability of randomly picking 3 purple balls (without replacement).

For the first pick:

Here all the balls have the same probability of being drawn from the urn, so the probability of getting a purple one is equal to the quotient between the number of purple balls (7) and the total number of balls (15)

p₁ = 7/15

Second:

Same as before, notice that because the balls are not replaced, now there are 6 purple balls in the urn, and a total of 14 balls, so in this case the probability is:

p₂ = 6/14

third:

Same as before, this time there are 5 purple balls in the urn and 13 balls in total, so here the probability is:

p₃ = 5/13

The joint probability (the probability of these 3 events happening) is equal to the product between the individual probabilities, so we have:

P = p₁*p₂*p₃ = (7/15)*(6/14)*(5/13)  = 0.08

HELP PLEASEEE
djyliett [7]

Answer:

Exact circumference is 7\frac{49}{150}km

Approximate circumference is 7.33 km

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given;

  • The diameter of a circle as 2\frac{1}{3} km

We are required to determine the exact and approximate circumference of the circle.

  • We know that the circumference of the circle is given by;
  • Circumference = πD, where D is the diameter

Taking π as 3.14

Circumference=3.14 (2\frac{1}{3}km)

                          =7\frac{49}{150}km

The exact circumference of the circle is 7\frac{49}{150}km

7\frac{49}{150}km=7.327 km\\                            = 7.33 km (nearest hundredth)

Thus, the approximate circumference of the circle is 7.33 km
