7. A crate of soft drinks contains 9 bottles of coke, 6 bottles of pepsi and 4 bottles of limca. Ademola picks one bottle of sof

Mekhanik [1.2K]

The probability that the events (a) they both picked Limca = 0.04, (b) Ademola only picked Pepsi = 0.32, (c) They both picked the same brand = 0.33 (d) They picked different brand=0.67.

<h3>What is probability?</h3>

Probability is the fraction of the required outcome event divided by the number of possible outcomes of events.

Total possible outcome of the event of picking drinks contained in the crate = 19

Hence, we can compute the following as follows;

(a) The probability they both picked Limca = (4/19)×(3/18)

Limca = 12/342

Limca = 0.04

(b) The probability Ademola only picked pepsi = 6/19

pepsi = 0.32

(c) The probability they both picked the same brand = (9/19)×(8/18)+(6/19)×(5/18)+(4/19)×(3/18)

=(72+29+12)/342

= 114/342

= 0.33

(d) The probability they picked different brand = (9/19)×(6/18)+(9/19)×(4/18)+(6/19)×(9/18)+(6/19)×(4/18)+(4/19)×(9/18)+(4/19)×(6/18)

The probability they picked different brand = (54+36+54+24+36+24)/342

The probability they picked different brand = 228/332

The probability they picked different brand = 0.67

Therefore, the probability for events (a) is 0.04, (b) is 0.32, (c) is 0.33 and (d) is 0.67.

Which number produces an irrational number when multiplied by 1/3

MArishka [77]

We can simply observe that.

0.777... is rational, because it is a number with infinite but repeating decimal part.
1/3 is rational, because it's the division between two integers
$-\sqrt{16}=-4$ , so this is rational as well.

Since the product of two rational numbers is always rational, we have that

$0.\bar{7}\cdot \dfrac{1}{3},\quad \dfrac{1}{3}\cdot \dfrac{1}{3},\quad -4\cdot \dfrac{1}{3}$

are all rationals, since they are the product of two rationals.

On the other hand, we have

$\sqrt{27}=\sqrt{9\cdot 3}=3\sqrt{3}$

and thus

$3\sqrt{3}\cdot \dfrac{1}{3}=\sqrt{3}$

which is irrational.
