Answer:

P = 3/11

Step-by-step explanation:

There are:

6 red marbles

4 blue marbles

2 yellow marbles.

So there are a total of 12 marbles in the bag, such that each one has the same probability of being randomly picked.

We want to find the probability that the first pick is not yellow (so it can be either blue or red), and the second pick is a blue marble.

Now there are two cases.

The first marble is red and the second blue

the first marble is blue and the second blue

We need to find the probability in each case.

The probability that the first marble is red is equal to the quotient between the number of red marbles (6) and the total number of marbles (12)

p = 6/12

Now, for the second draw, we need a blue marble, the probability in this case is the quotient between the number of blue marbles (4) and the total number of marbles in the bag (now there are 11, because one is already taken)

q = 4/11

The joint probability is equal to the product of the individual probabilities, then:

P₁ = p*q = (6/12)*(4/11) = 2/11

And for the other case, we draw two blue marbles:

For the first draw, the probability is:

p = 4/12

And for the second draw, now there are 3 blue marbles and 11 total marbles, then the probability is:

q = 3/11

The joint probability is:

P₂ = (4/12)*(3/11) = 1/11

The total probability is then:

P = P₁ + P₂ = 2/11 + 1/11 = 3/11

Square root of 648.7209 by division method
SpyIntel [72]

Answer:

25.47

Step-by-step explanation:

This root can be rewritten as:

\sqrt{\frac{6487209}{10000} }

\sqrt{\frac{6487209}{100^{2}} }

\frac{1}{100}\cdot \sqrt{6487209}

Since 6487209 is a multple of 3, the expression can be rearranged as follows:

\frac{1}{100}\cdot \sqrt{3\times 2162403}

2162403 is also a multiple of 3, then:

\frac{1}{100}\cdot \sqrt{3^{2}\times 720801}

\frac{3}{100}\cdot \sqrt{720801}

720801 is a multiple of 3, then:

\frac{3}{100}\cdot \sqrt{3\times 240267}

240267 is a multiple of 3, then:

\frac{3}{100}\times \sqrt{3^{2}\times 80089}

\frac{9}{100}\cdot \sqrt{80089}

80089 is a multiple of 283, then:

\frac{9}{100}\cdot \sqrt{283^{2}}

\frac{9\times 283}{100}

\frac{2547}{100}
