Answer:

0.43478

Step-by-step explanation:

From the information given:

The \  required  \ probability = P(1st ball = red) \times P(2nd ball = red) + P(1st ball = red) \times P(2nd ball = white)  + P(2nd ball = red) \times P(1st ball = white) + P(1st ball = white) \times P(2nd ball = white)

= \dfrac{6}{6+8+10}\times  \dfrac{5}{5+8+10} +  \dfrac{6}{6+8+10} \times  \dfrac{10}{5+8+10} +  \dfrac{10}{6+8+10} \times  \dfrac{6}{5+8+10} \times  \dfrac{10}{6+8+10} \times  \dfrac{9}{5+8+9}

=(\dfrac{6}{24}\times \dfrac{5}{23})+ (\dfrac{6}{24}\times \dfrac{10}{23}) +( \dfrac{10}{24}\times \dfrac{6}{23} ) + (\dfrac{10}{24}\times \dfrac{9}{23})

= 0.05434782609 + 0.1086956522  + 0.1086956522  + 0.1630434783

= 0.4347826088

≅ 0.43478

You deposit $5000 in an account earning 7.5% simple interest. How long will it take for the balance of the account to be $6500?
salantis [7]
Hi there! So, the simple interest is 7.5% annually. Let’s multiply by initial amount by the interest rate. 5,000 * 7.5% is 375. You earn $375 in interest annually. The difference of 6,500 and 5,000 is 1,500. Let’s divide by 375 to see how many times it goes into 1,500. 1,500/375 is 4. It will take 4 years for the balance of the account to be $6,500.
