One urn contains one blue ball (labeled B1) and three red balls (labeled R1, R2, and R3). A second urn contains two red balls (R

4 and R5) and two blue balls (B2 and B3). An experiment is performed in which one of the two urns is chosen at random and then two balls are randomly chosen from it, one after the other without replacement. a. Construct the possibility tree showing all possible outcomes of this experiment. b. What is the total number of outcomes of this experiment

Answer:

(a) See attachment for tree diagram

(b) 24 possible outcomes

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Urn\ 1 = \{B_1, R_1, R_2, R_3\}

Urn\ 2 = \{R_4, R_5, B_2, B_3\}

Solving (a): A possibility tree

If urn 1 is selected, the following selection exists:

B_1 \to [R_1, R_2, R_3]; R_1 \to [B_1, R_2, R_3]; R_2 \to [B_1, R_1, R_3]; R_3 \to [B_1, R_1, R_2]

If urn 2 is selected, the following selection exists:

B_2 \to [B_3, R_4, R_5]; B_3 \to [B_2, R_4, R_5]; R_4 \to [B_2, B_3, R_5]; R_5 \to [B_2, B_3, R_4]

<em>See attachment for possibility tree</em>

Solving (b): The total number of outcome

<u>For urn 1</u>

There are 4 balls in urn 1

n = \{B_1,R_1,R_2,R_3\}

Each of the balls has 3 subsets. i.e.

B_1 \to [R_1, R_2, R_3]; R_1 \to [B_1, R_2, R_3]; R_2 \to [B_1, R_1, R_3]; R_3 \to [B_1, R_1, R_2]

So, the selection is:

Urn\ 1 = 4 * 3

Urn\ 1 = 12

<u>For urn 2</u>

There are 4 balls in urn 2

n = \{B_2,B_3,R_4,R_5\}

Each of the balls has 3 subsets. i.e.

B_2 \to [B_3, R_4, R_5]; B_3 \to [B_2, R_4, R_5]; R_4 \to [B_2, B_3, R_5]; R_5 \to [B_2, B_3, R_4]

So, the selection is:

Urn\ 2 = 4 * 3

Urn\ 2 = 12

Total number of outcomes is:

Total = Urn\ 1 + Urn\ 2

Total = 12 + 12

Total = 24

Frankie and Maria paid to get into the carnival, and they had to pay a certain amount per game. Frankie played 5 games and spent
Natali [406]

Answer:

It cost $8 per person to get into the carnival

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the entry cost be y

Let Cost of 1 game be x

Cost of 5 games = 5x

Cost of 12 games = 12x

Frankie played 5 games and spent $15.50 altogether.

So, 5x+y=15.50 --- A

Maria played 12 games and spent $26 altogether.

So, 12x+y=26 -- B

Plot the lines

5x+y=15.50 --- Black color

12x+y=26  --- Red color

Intersection point provides the solution

(x,y)=(1.5,8)

So, it cost $8 per person to get into the carnival

Write an explicit formula for an,<br> the nth<br> term of the sequence 31, 37,43, ....
Alchen [17]

Answer:

The formula for the nth term of this sequence is: 31 + (n-1)X6

Step-by-step explanation:

This is an arithmetic sequence (ie. each term is the last term with a fixed value added to it).

T1 =31

T2 = 37 = T1 + 6 = 31 + 6

T3 = 43 = T2 + 6 = 31 + 6 + 6 = 31 + 6X2

…

In general, the nth term is 31 + 6(n-1)
