Answer:

16 years

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that :

Earth's distance from sun = 93 million miles

Number of years to complete an orbit = 1 year

Average orbiting distance of new asteroid = 1488 million miles

Number of years to complete an orbit = x

93,000,000 Miles = 1

1488000000 miles = x

Cross multiply :

93000000x = 1488000000

x = 1488000000 / 93000000

x = 16 years

Period taken to orbit the sun = 16 years

V+8w=4v,for v<br><br> -m+5n=-2, for n
jok3333 [9.3K]

Answer:

  • v = 8w/3,
  • n = (m - 2)/5.

---------------------------

<h3>Given equations</h3>
  • v + 8w = 4v and - m + 5n = - 2

<h3>Solve the first equation for v</h3>
  • v + 8w = 4v
  • 4v - v = 8w
  • 3v = 8w
  • v = 8w/3

<h3>Solve the second equation for n</h3>
  • - m + 5n = - 2
  • 5n = m - 2
  • n = (m - 2)/5

Merrill is playing a simple game of dice. For every 6 rolled, Merrill will win $5. For any other number, he must pay $2. How muc
Schach [20]

Solution -

The probability of getting 6 from a single roll of a fair dice = \frac{1}{6}

The probability of getting any other number rather than 6 would be 1-\frac{1}{6} = \frac{5}{6}

So when the outcome is 6, then he wins $5 ,otherwise he has to pay $2

So

E(X) = Expectation value = (\frac{1}{6} )(5) - (\frac{5}{6} )(2)                                    ( ∵ $5 gain so +ve and $2 loss so -ve)

=\frac{-5}{6}

∴ So Merrill will lose \frac{5}{6} dollar

Miranda has a bag of marbles with 5 blue marbles, 1 white marbles, and 1 red marbles. Find the following probabilities of Mirand
kvasek [131]

Answer:

(a)\frac{5}{7},\frac{1}{6} (b)\frac{1}{7},\frac{1}{6} (c)\frac{5}{7},\frac{2}{3},\frac{3}{5}

Step-by-step explanation:

GIVEN: Miranda has a bag of marbles with 5 blue marbles, 1 white marbles, and

TO FIND: a) A Blue, then a red Preview

,b)A red, then a white Preview

,c) A Blue, then a Blue, then a Blue.

SOLUTION:

Total marbles in bag =7

(a)

Probability of drawing blue marble =\frac{\text{total blue marble}}{\text{total marbles}}

                                                          =\frac{5}{7}

As marble is not returned to bag,

Probability of drawing red marble  =\frac{\text{total red marble}}{\text{total marbles}}

                                                         =\frac{1}{6}

(b)

Probability of drawing red marble =\frac{\text{total red marble}}{\text{total marbles}}

                                                          =\frac{1}{7}

As marble is not returned to bag,

Probability of drawing white marble  =\frac{\text{total white marble}}{\text{total marbles}}

                                                         =\frac{1}{6}

(c)

Probability of drawing blue marble =\frac{\text{total blue marble}}{\text{total marbles}}

                                                          =\frac{5}{7}

As marble is not returned to bag,

Probability of drawing second blue marble  =\frac{\text{total blue marble}}{\text{total marbles}}

                                                                         =\frac{4}{6}=\frac{2}{3}

As marble is not returned to the bag

Probability of drawing third blue marble   =\frac{\text{total blue marble}}{\text{total marbles}}

                                                                    =\frac{3}{5}
