Assume there are equal amount of a lot of red and other color balls in the urn for you to select r=red and o=other, all the possible outcome for selecting 3 in sequence is 1r2r3r, 1r2r3o,1r2o3r, 1o2r3r, 1r2o3o, 1o2r3o, 1o2o3r, 1o2o3o. In terms of expected value, 1 case for all 3 reds, 3 cases for 2 reds, 3 cases for 1 red, and 1 case for 0 red. Equal large amount of red and other means all 8 outcomes has equal possibilities so each is 1/8 and 3 reds will have possibility of 1/8, 2 reds will have 3/8, 1 red will have 3/8 and no red will have 1/8. However the question tells you the red and other don’t have equal amounts, 5/12 possibility for each pick for red and 7/12 possibility for other. So three reds becomes 5/12*5/12*5/12; 2 reds becomes 5/12*5/12*7/12 multiply by 3 (since 3 cases); 1 red is 5/12*7/12*7/12 multiply by 3 (since 3 cases); 0 red is 7/12*7/12*7/12. Out of every 10 picks, you will expect to pick all 3 reds with the chance less than once, 2 reds with the chance more than 3 times and 1 red with the chance more than 4 times and no red with the chance less than 2 times. (I forgot how to exactly represent expected value) and possibility distribution is estimated 3 reds around 7%, 2 reds around 30%, 1 red around 42% and no red around 20%.

How to factor <br> 49y^{2}-9x^{2}
lorasvet [3.4K]

Answer:

(7y + 3x)(7y - 3x)

Step-by-step explanation:

a² - b² = (a + b)(a - b)

49y² - 9x² = (7y)² - (3x)²                   {a = 7y ; b - 3x}

               = (7y + 3x)(7y - 3x)

(06.01) In the below system, solve for y in the first equation. x + 3y = 6 2x − y = 10 one thirdx + 2 negative one thirdx + 6 −x
NISA [10]

we have that

x + 3y = 6 -------> first equation

2x − y = 10


x + 3y = 6-----> substract x both sides

-x+x+3y=6-x

3y=6-x-----> divide by 3 both sides

y=(6-x) /3

y=2-(x/3)

y=-(x/3)+2

therefore


the answer is

negative one thirdx + 2
