There are 3 bags each containing 100 marbles. Bag 1 has 75 red and 25 blue marbles. Bag 2 has 60 red and 40 blue marbles. Bag 3
jekas [21]

Answer:

0.4 ; 0.6125

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the following :

Bag 1 : 75 red ; 25 blue

Bag 2: 60 red ; 40 blue

Bag 3: 45 red ; 55 blue

Probability = (required outcome / Total possible outcomes)

A) since the probability of choosing each bag is equal :

BAG A:

P(choosing bag A) = 1 / total number of bags = 1/3 ; P(choosing blue marble) = number of blue marbles / total number of marbles = 25/100

HENCE, choosing a blue marble from bag A : = (1/3 × 75/100) = 25/300

BAG B:

P(choosing bag B) = 1/3 ;

P(choosing blue marble) = number of blue marbles / total number of marbles = 40/100

HENCE, choosing a blue marble from bag A : = (1/3 × 40/100) = 40/300

BAG C:

P(choosing bag C) = 1/3

P(choosing blue marble) = number of blue marbles / total number of marbles = 55/100

HENCE, choosing a blue marble from bag A : = (1/3 × 55/100) = 55/300

= (25/300) × (40/300) × (55/300) = (25 + 40 + 55)/300 = 120/300 = 0.4

2) What is the probability that the marble is blue when the first bag is chosen with probability 0.5 and other bags with equal probability each?

BAG A:

P(choosing bag A) = 0.5 ; P(choosing blue marble) = number of blue marbles / total number of marbles = 25/100

HENCE, choosing a blue marble from bag A : = (0.5 × 75/100) = (0.5 * 0.75) = 0.375

BAG B:

P(choosing bag B) = (1-0.5) / 2 = 0.25 ;

P(choosing blue marble) = number of blue marbles / total number of marbles = 40/100

HENCE, choosing a blue marble from bag A : = (0.25 × 40/100) = (0.25 × 0.4) = 0.1

BAG C:

P(choosing bag C) = (1 - (0.5+0.25)) = 0.25

P(choosing blue marble) = number of blue marbles / total number of marbles = 55/100

HENCE, choosing a blue marble from bag A : = (0.25 × 55/100) = 0.25 × 0.55 = 0.1375

= 0.1375 + 0.1 + 0.375 = 0.6125

A test has 50 questions. each right answer is worth 2 points; each wrong answer deducts 0.5 points; blank answers are not counte
mestny [16]

ANSWER: There are 2 blank answers

 

EXPLANATION

 

Let

The number of right answers be ‘r’

The number of wrong answers be ‘w’

The number of blank answers be ‘b’

 

r + w + b = 50

This means r + w ≤ 50

 

Then we know,

Right answers = 2 marks

Wrong answers = -0.5 mark

Blank Answers = 0 marks

 

2r – 0.5w = 88.5

2r = 88.5 + 0.5w                               … (Equation I)                   

 

Since the score as .5, we know that there is at least one wrong answer, and the number of wrong answers is an odd number.

 

Since the score is 88.5, and each right answer gives 2 marks

There are at more than 44 (i.e. 88/2) right answers

 

Since r + w ≤ 50, and possible values of w are odd numbers

If r = 45, Possible values of w are 1, 3, and 5

If r = 46, Possible values of w are 1, 3

If r = 47, Possible values of w are 1, 3

If r = 48, The only possible value of w is 1

If r = 49,The only possible value of w is 1

 

 

Since 2r = 88.5 + 0.5w  (Equation I)

We test for possible values:

 

If r = 45

2r = 88.5 + 0.5w  

2(45) = 88.5 + 0.5w  

90 = 88.5 + 0.5w

0.5w = 90 – 88.5

0.5w = 1.5

w = 3

 

So,

If there are 45 right answers

There are 3 wrong answers

r + w + b = 50

45 + 3 + b = 50

48 + b = 50

b = 50 – 48

b = 2

Then, there are 2 blank answers.

 

If r = 46

2r = 88.5 + 0.5w

2(46) = 88.5 + 0.5w

92 = 88.5 + 0.5w

0.5w = 92 – 88.5

0.5w = 3.5

w = 7

 

So,

If there are 46 right answers

There are 7 wrong answers

We know that r + w ≤ 50

46 + 7 = 53

So 46 and higher numbers are not possible solutions.

 

The only possible solution is:

There are 45 right answers

There are 3 wrong answers
