Answer:
4/69 to be exact. Slightly greater than 1/18
Step-by-step explanation:
The chance of selecting the PB cookie on the first try is 4 out of 24 or 1 out of 6. There are now 23 coolies left; 8 are chocolate, so 8/23 chance. (Slightly greater than 1/3) The chance of both events happening is the product if the individual events' chances. So multiply 1/6 times 8/23 to get 8/138. That reduces to 4/ 69. If he had put that first cookie back, the multiplication would have been 1/6×1/3. A lot easier.
Bart and David are correct.
Bart
6x(1+2/3^3)
6x * 1 = 6x
6x *2/3^3 = 4x^3
6x * 4x^3
David
x(6+4x^2)
x*6 = 6x
x*4x^2 = 4x^3
6x+4x^3
Answer:
1. x = 15 in
2. x = 8 m
Step-by-step explanation:
1. Given:
length = 10 in
width = 3 in
height = x in
surface area of the rectangular prism = its volume
Required:
Value of x
Area = 2(wl + hl + hw)
Volume = l*w*h
Therefore:
2(3*10 + x*10 + x*3) = 10*3*x
2(30 + 10x + 3x) = 30x
2(30 + 13x) = 30x
60 + 26x = 30x
Subtract 26x from both sides
60 + 26x - 26x = 30x - 26x
60 = 4x
Divide both sides by 4
60/4 = 4x/4
15 = x
x = 15 in
2. Given:
length = 8 m
width = 4 m
height = x m
surface area of the rectangular prism = its volume
Required:
Value of x
Area = 2(wl + hl + hw)
Volume = l*w*h
Therefore:
2(4*8 + x*8 + x*4) = 8*4*x
2(32 + 8x + 4x) = 32x
2(32 + 12x) = 32x
64 + 24x = 32x
Subtract 24x from both sides
64 + 24x - 24x = 32x - 24x
64 = 8x
Divide both sides by 8
64/8 = 8x/8
8 = x
x = 8 m
