I can! What problem do u need help on
3 to the 4th power is 81, 3 times itself 4 times.
Hope this helps, if not, comment below please!!!!
Answer:
- Question (2): 1/6 ≈ 0. 17
Explanation:
<u>1. Arrange the information of the balls contained in the bowls in a table:</u>
Bowl X Bowl Y Bowl Z Total
Red balls 2 2 1 5
White balls 2 1 3 6
Blue balls 3 1 2 6
==============================
Totals 7 4 6 17
<u>2. To answer each question use the basic definition of probabilities</u>
- Probability = # of favorable events / # of possible events
<u>3. Question (1) If the ball is blue, what is the probability that it was drawn from bowl X? </u>
<u />
- Number of total blue balls: 6
- Number of blue balls in the bowl X: 3
- Probability that a ball that is blue was drawn from the bowl X: P (b/X)
P (b/X) = number of blue balls in the bowl X / total number of blue balls = 3 / 6 = 1/2 = 0.5
<u>4. Question (2) If the ball is either blue or white, what is the probability that it was drawn from bowl Y?</u>
- Number of total blue and white balls: 6 + 6 = 12
- Number of blue balls and white balls in the bowl Y: 1 + 1 = 2
- Probability that a ball that is either blue or white was drawn from the bowl Y: P (b or w / Y)
P (b or w /Y) = number of blue balls and white balls in the bowl Y / total number of blue balls and white balls = 2 / 12 = 1/6 ≈ 0.17
Kenyan = k
$3.50 per pound
Sri Lankan = s
$5.60 per pound
6lbs of blend
$28.35
s+k = 6
3.50k + 5.60s = 28.35
where:
k = lbs of kenyan
s = lbs of Sri Lankan
Solve the system
s+k = 6
3.50k + 5.60s = 28.35
solve the first equation for s:
s = 6-k
Replace in the second equation:
3.50k + 5.60 (6-k) = 28.35
3.50k + 5.60(6)+ 5.60(-k) = 28.35
3.50k + 33.6 - 5.60k = 28.35
3.50k - 5.60k = 28.35-33.6
-2.1k= -5.25
k= -5.25/-2.1
k= 2.5 lbs
Replace k on any equation and solve for s
s+k= 6
s+ 2.5 = 6
s= 6-2.5
s= 3.5 lbs
If you take 4/6, you divide so it will be 0.6667... and then if you take 5/7 you divide again, and then it will be 0.7143...
