Answer:
A. Aditi 2 1/2 cups, Kavitha 3 3/4 cups, and Rahul 4 1/8 cups
Step-by-step explanation:
2*2=4 5-4=1 2 1/2
3*4=12 15-12=3 3 3/4
4*8-32 33-32=1 4 1/8
Answer:
X has an infinite number of solutions
or
0 = 0
Step-by-step explanation:
<em>Hey there!</em>
Given,
523x = 523x
Simplify
523x = 523x
-523x to both sides
0 = 0
<u>So x has an infinite number of solutions.</u>
<em>Hope this helps :)</em>
Answer:
0.40
Step-by-step explanation:
to find out the probability that at least one of a pair of fair dice lands of 5, given that the sum of the dice is 8
Let A = sum of dice is 8
B = one lands in 5
P(B/A) = P(AB)/P(A) by conditional probability
P(AB) = sum is 8 and one is 5
So (5,3) or (3,5)
P(A) = sum is 8.
i.e. (2,6) (2,6) (3,5) (5,3) (4,4)
Required probability
= n(AB)/n(A)
=
Let's call the stamps A, B, and C. They can each be used only once. I assume all 3 must be used in each possible arrangement.
There are two ways to solve this. We can list each possible arrangement of stamps, or we can plug in the numbers to a formula.
Let's find all possible arrangements first. We can easily start spouting out possible arrangements of the 3 stamps, but to make sure we find them all, let's go in alphabetical order. First, let's look at the arrangements that start with A:
ABC
ACB
There are no other ways to arrange 3 stamps with the first stamp being A. Let's look at the ways to arrange them starting with B:
BAC
BCA
Try finding the arrangements that start with C:
C_ _
C_ _
Or we can try a little formula; y×(y-1)×(y-2)×(y-3)...until the (y-x) = 1 where y=the number of items.
In this case there are 3 stamps, so y=3, and the formula looks like this: 3×(3-1)×(3-2).
Confused? Let me explain why it works.
There are 3 possibilities for the first stamp: A, B, or C.
There are 2 possibilities for the second space: The two stamps that are not in the first space.
There is 1 possibility for the third space: the stamp not used in the first or second space.
So the number of possibilities, in this case, is 3×2×1.
We can see that the number of ways that 3 stamps can be attached is the same regardless of method used.
