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

Please help! can you explain it to me?
Semenov [28]

Answer:

It is increasing before x = -2 and from x = 0 to x = 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Option 1 - you can see the line going down starting at -2 and that means the line is decreasing but the choice says "It is increasing before x = 0". This contradicts the actual graph.

Option 2 - The line isn't increasing before x= -1, it's actually decreasing as seen in the graph.

Option 3 - The line doesn't even touch the point before x = -3 so this choice makes no sense.

Option 4 - Since all the other choices were eliminated this is the only choice standing. Looking at the line it is increasing before x = -2.

How do you find surface area of a triangular prism ?​
Vitek1552 [10]

Answer:

See below.

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the surface area, find the area of the square base and add it to the area of each triangle face. Find the area of the base by multiplying base length by base length. Find the area of each triangle face by multiplying 1/2 * b*h.

Example:

For a base which is 12 by 12. The area is 12 x 12 = 144.

For the triangle face, the area is 1/2 * 12 * 15 = 90. Since there are 4 faces, the total area is 4 * 90 = 360.

Together the surface area is 360 + 144 = 504.

What is the value of sin(−θ) ?
Neko [114]

Answer:

A

Step-by-step explanation:

The cosine of a right triangle is the adjacent over the hypotenuse. If the cosine is -3/5 then it must be a right triangle with sides 3, 4, & 5 since this is a Pythagorean triple. This means the sin will be -4/5. We know its negative because the tangent is positive so this is the 3rd quadrant where both Sine and Cosine are negative.
