Answer:
c. 0.3974
Step-by-step explanation:
Given;
number of white balls, W = 17
number of red balls, R = 18
Total number of balls, T = 35
The number of ways the event will occur is given by
= P(2 whites) and P(2 reds)
= P(2whites) x P(2 reds)
= 17C2 x 18C2
= 136 x 153
= 20,808
The total number of possible outcome
= 35C4
= 52,360
The probability = 20,808 / 52,360
= 0.3974
The correct option is "C"
So, the first thing you want to find out is how many seconds each person adds to the wait time. Find out how many seconds are in 20 minutes.. 20*60=120. 120/150=0.8 seconds. Each person adds 0.8 seconds to the wait time. Now, multiply that by 240.. 240*0.8=192 seconds. Lastly, find out how many minutes 192 seconds is... 192/60=32 minutes.
I hope I did that right! And if I did, I hope that helped!
It isn't easy really but you can always divide the number out. For example 50% of 200 is 100 by dividing 200 by 2 or 25% of 100 is 25 by dividing 100 by 4 since 25% is equivalent to 1/4
Answer: I believe the answer would be 1/9 ?
