A jar of 150 jelly beans contains 22 red jelly beans, 38 yellow, 20 green, 28 purple, 26 blue, and the rest are orange.Let B = t

he event of getting a blue jelly beanLet G = the event of getting a green jelly bean.Let O = the event of getting an orange jelly bean.Let P = the event of getting a purple jelly bean.Let R = the event of getting a red jelly bean.Let Y = the event of getting a yellow jelly bean.What is the probability of drawing a red jelly bean in the first draw WITHOUT replacing the red jelly bean, then choosing a blue jelly bean in the second draw?Use 4 decimal places for this problem. Do not round your answers for intermediate steps, only for the final answer.

Answer:

P(R\ and\ B) = 0.0256

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Red = 22

Yellow = 38

Green = 20

Purple = 28

Blue = 26

Orange = 16

Required

Determine the probability of red then blue jelly? i.e. P(R and B)

From the question, we understand that the red jelly bean was not replaced. This means that the number of jelly beans reduced by 1 after the picking of the red jelly bean

So, we have:

P(R\ and\ B) = P(R)\ and\ P(B)

This is then solved further as:

P(R\ and\ B) = P(R)\ *\ P(B)

P(R\ and\ B) = \frac{n(R)}{Total}\ *\frac{n(B)}{Total - 1}

The probability has a denominator of Total - 1 because the number of jelly beans reduced by 1 after the picking of the red jelly bean

The equation becomes:

P(R\ and\ B) = \frac{22}{150}\ *\frac{26}{150- 1}

P(R\ and\ B) = \frac{22}{150}\ *\frac{26}{149}

P(R\ and\ B) = \frac{22*26}{150*149}

P(R\ and\ B) = \frac{572}{22350}

P(R\ and\ B) = 0.02559284116

P(R\ and\ B) = 0.0256

Mrs. Habib has 46.25 feet of border for a bulletin board for her classroom. the board is 37.5 feet tall and 8.3 feet wide. how m
Luba_88 [7]

Answer:

Mrs. Habib will have 22.25 feet of border left after she puts border around the board.

Step-by-step explanation:

You must find the perimeter of the board and subtract it from the amount of border she has to find how much she will have left after she uses it. The formula for perimeter is P=2(l+w), where l= the length of the board, and w= the width of the board. You will add those together and multiply them by 2 because there are 4 sides to a rectangle. That means this equation will look like:

P=2(8.25+3.75)

Now you can just solve for the perimeter.

P=2(12)

P=24

The perimeter is 24 feet. That means it will take 24 feet of border to cover her board. In order to find out how much she'll have left over, just subtract 24 from the total amount of border she has.

46.25-24=22.25

Therefore Mrs. Habib will have 22.25 feet of border left over after she covers the bulletin board.
