Answer:

p = 6/11.

Step-by-step explanation:

So we have a bag that contains 6 red marbles and 6 green marbles.

Then the total number of marbles that are in that bag is:

6 + 6  = 12

There are 12 marbles in the bag, and we assume that all marbles have the same probability of being randomly drawn.

Now we draw two marbles, we want to find the probability that one is red and the other is green.

The first marble that we draw does not matter, as we just want the second marble to be of the other color.

So, suppose we draw a green one in the first attempt.

Then in the second draw, we need to get a red one.

The probability of drawing a red one will be equal to the quotient between the red marbles in the bag (6) and the total number of marbles in the bag (12 - 1 = 11, because one green marble was drawn already)

Then the probability is:

p = 6/11.

Notice that would be the exact same case if the first marble was red.

Then we can conclude that the probability of getting two marbles of different colors is:

p = 6/11.

The total cost, in dollars, to order x units of a certain product is modeled by C(x)=5x²+320 . According to the model, for what
lora16 [44]

Answer:

The minimum cost per unit is obtained for an order of 8 units.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the total cost is modeled by;

C(x)=5x²+320

Then;

1 unit costs; C(x)=5(1)²+320 = 325

cost per unit 325/1 = 325

8 units costs; C(x)=5(8)²+320 = 640

cost per unit = 640/8 = 80

80 units costs; C(x)=5(80)²+320 = 32320

Cost per unit = 32320/80 = 404

The minimum cost per unit is obtained for an order of 8 units.
