Given:

Book club A charges $20 for membership and $2 per book rental.

Book club B charges $10 for membership and $3 per book rental.

To find:

The number of books for which the cost be the same at both book clubs.

Solution:

Let x be the number of books.

Book club A charges $20 for membership and $2 per book rental. So, the total cost is

$C_1=20+2x$ ...(i)

Book club B charges $10 for membership and $3 per book rental. So, the total cost is

$C_2=10+3x$ ...(ii)

Equating (i) and (ii), we get

$10+3x=20+2x$

$3x-2x=20-10$

$x=10$

The total cost is

$C_1=20+2(10)$

$C_1=20+20$

$C_1=40$

Therefore, the total cost at both book clubs are same for 10 rental books and that cost is $40.

Answer:

$P(green)+P(yellow)=\frac{3}{8}+\frac{1}{8}$

$P(green)+P(yellow)=\frac{1}{4}+\frac{1}{4}$

$P(green)+P(yellow)=\frac{3}{7}+\frac{1}{14}$

Step-by-step explanation:

The given probabilities are:

$P(red)=\frac{2}{7}$

$P(blue)=\frac{3}{14}$

Their sum is $P(red)+P(blue)=\frac{2}{7}+\frac{3}{14}$

The probabilities that will complete the model should add up to $\frac{1}{2}$ so that the sum of all probabilities is 1.

$P(green)+P(yellow)=\frac{2}{7}+\frac{2}{7}\ne\frac{1}{2}$

$P(green)+P(yellow)=\frac{3}{8}+\frac{1}{8}=\frac{1}{2}$

$P(green)+P(yellow)=\frac{1}{4}+\frac{1}{4}=\frac{1}{2}$

$P(green)+P(yellow)=\frac{5}{21}+\frac{11}{21}\ne\frac{1}{2}$

$P(green)+P(yellow)=\frac{3}{7}+\frac{1}{14}=\frac{1}{2}$

Jerome is going to draw a marble from the bag shown below, replace it, and then draw another marble. What is the probability tha

alexira [117]

Marbles in a bag: 3 green, 4 yellow, 5 blue, 8 pink.

Event A - get a green or yellow marble
Event B - get a pink marble

Events A and B are independent because we draw a marble from a bag with 20 marbles in both cases.
$P(A)= \frac{3+4}{3+4+5+8}= \frac{7}{20} 
\\P(B)= \frac{8}{3+4+5+8}= \frac{8}{20} = \frac{2}{5}$

Probability of combined events is
$P(A) \times P(B)=\frac{7}{20} \times \frac{2}{5} =\frac{7}{50}$
