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

If 1 mile equals 5280 feet and an escalator moves at a rate of 2 feet per second. At what rate does the escalator move in miles
Sever21 [200]
Ratio=2 ft/s
ratio=2 ft/s * (1 mile / 5280 ft)*(3600 s / 1 h)=1.36363636.. miles/h≈1.36 miles/h.


Answer: 1.36 miles/h

First thing First. You must find have a common denominator. If you want to find it then you do this

3: 3 6 9 12 15 18 21
7: 7 14 21 28

Once you found a number they have in common (21) You do this next

3/7 * 3/3 = 9/21
2/3 * 7/7 = 14/21

Now the next thing you do is subtract your numerators but not the denominators

14-9=5

5/12

you cant simplified so your done! Hope this helps!!!!  <span />
