Answer:

a) 0.0023

b) 0.007

c) 0.993

Step-by-step explanation:

The total number of marbles are;

5 + 10 = 15

Probability of red = 5/15

Probability of white = 8/15

Probability of 4 being red means, 4 will be white too;

Thus, the probability without replacement will be;

5/15 * 4/14 * 3/13 * 2/12 * 10/11 * 9/10 * 8/9 * 7/8 =

0.002331002331 which is approximately 0.0023

b. All white

Here, we have all the marbles selected being white

Thus the probability without replacement will be;

10/15 * 9/14 * 8/13 * 7/12 * 6/11 * 5/10 * 4/9 * 3/8

= 0.006993006993 which is approximately 0.007

c. At least one will be red

Mathematically, that will be;

1 - p(no red)

p(no red) = p(all white)

P(all white) = 0.007

hence P(no red) = 0.007

P(at least one red) = 1 - 0.007 = 0.993

The measure of angle 1 is 65 degrees. What are the measures of the other seven angles? (Enter the
Anika [276]

Answer:

See solution below

Step-by-step explanation:

According to the diagram shown

m<1 = m<5 = 5=65 degrees (corresponding angle)

m<5 = m<4 - 65 degrees (alternate interior angle)

m<9 = m<8 = 65degrees (corresponding angle)

m<5 = m<8 = 65dgrees (vertically opposite angles)

m<6+m<8 = 180

m<6 + 65 = 180

m<6 = 180 - 65

m<6 = 115degrees

m<2 = m<6 = 115degrees (corresponding angles)

m<6 = m<7 = 115degrees (vertically opposite angles)

m<3 = m<7 = 115degrees(corresponding angle)

Evaluate (3.5×10^13)-(1.4×10^12)/3×10^9
maw [93]

Answer:

11,200

Step-by-step explanation:

At first we use "BODMAS" rule.

Given,

(3.5×10^13)-(1.4×10^12)/3×10^9

So, we will break the brackets at first. With the help of excel, we can get the desired result. The following images will show you the step-by-step result.

Use "Number" instead of "general" in the excel sheet. You can use calculator too.
