Answer:
a) There is a 66.7% chance that you were given box 1
b) There is a 80% chance that you were given box 1
Step-by-step explanation:
To find this, we need to note that there is a 1/10 chance of getting a defective bulb with box 1 and a 1/20 chance in box 2.
a) To find the answer to this, find the probability of getting a defective bulb for each box. Since there is only one bulb pulled in this example, we just use the base numbers given.
Box 1 = 1/10
Box 2 = 1/2
From this we can see that Box 1 is twice as likely that you get a defective bulb. As a result, the percentage chance would be 2/3 or 66.7%
b) For this answer, we need to square each of the probabilities in order to get the probability of getting a defective one twice.
Box 1 = 1/10^2 = 1/100
Box 2 = 1/20^2 = 1/400
As a result, Box 1 is four times more likely. This means that it would be a 4/5 chance and have a probability of 80%
Answer:
1/45
Step-by-step explanation:
There are 10 marbles
P ( yellow) = yellow marbles / total = 2/10 = 1/5
We do not replace the marble
There are 9 marbles, 1 of which is yellow
P ( yellow) = yellow marbles / total = 1/9
P ( yellow, no replacement, yellow) = 1/5 * 1/9 = 1/45
2/3 = 8/12. So the answer is 4/12
Answer:
C. Mason goes on vacation with her family for 4 days. Each morning, she bikes 6 kilometers to the donut shop and then 3 more kilometers to the swimming hole. She rides home from the swimming hole in her mom's car. How many kilometers does Mason bike on vacation?
Step-by-step explanation:
For A., the equation would be 4 + 6 - 3
For B., the equation would be 3 x (6 + 4)
So our only option is C.
For C., the equation would be 4 x (6 + 3)
