Answer:
look down there
Step-by-step explanation:
First ball:
Probability of drawing a white ball is 5/8
Probability of drawing a black ball is 3/8
Second ball:
This depends on the first ball drawn, lets say you drew a white ball initially, 4 white balls are left out of 7 balls in total. The probability of a white ball in the second pick is 4/7.
Total probability of drawing two white balls is 5/8*4/7 (since they are independent events).
If you picked a black ball initially, picking another black ball would have a probability of 2/7, on similar grounds , total prob for 2 blacks would be 3/8*2/7.
The probability that you pick 2 balls of same color is (5/14 + 3/28) = 13/28. (Since they are mutually exclusive events)
that is not a function, because there are two outputs for three. two inputs can have one output, but one input cant have two outputs.
Set each expression from the parentheses equal to 0 separately like so:
Equation 1: x - 4 = 0
Equation 2: -5x + 1 = 0
Now for each equation solve for x!
Equation 1:
x +(- 4 + 4) = 0 + 4
x = 4
Equation 2:
-5x +( 1-1) = 0 - 1
-5x/ -5 = -1 / -5
x = 1/5
Check:
(4 - 4)(-5*4 + 1)
(0) (-20 + 1)
(0) (-19)
0 = 0 -------------------------> correct!
(1/5 - 4)(-5 * 1/5 + 1)
(-19/5)(-1 + 1)
(-19/5)(0)
0 = 0 -------------------------> correct!
smaller x = 1/5
larger x = 4
Hope this helped!
