Answer:

1/12 of the pins are blue

Step-by-step explanation:

¼ yellow & ⅔ red

First you have to find a common denominator.

4×3 =12 & 3×4 =12 so the common denominator is 12.

Now × the numerator on the fraction with the same number that you x the denominator and you will get 3/12 and 8/12.

3/12 +8/12 = 11/12

12/12 - 11/12 = 1/12

Therefor 1/12 of the pins are blue

Answer: 1/12

Step-by-step explanation:

First make all the fractions have the same denominator. To do that, multiply the fractions by a number that will get them the same denominator. In this case, multiply 1/4 by 3, and 2/3 by 4.

1/4 x 3/3 = 3/12

2/3 x 4/4 = 8/12

then you have 3/12 + 8/12 = 11/12

so, blue is 1/12

The probability that aperson living in a certaincity owns a dog is estimated to be 0.3. Find the probabilitythat the tenth perso
allochka39001 [22]

The probability that the tenth person randomly interviewed in that city is the fifth one to own a dog = 0.051

Given,

Consider the interview of a person is a trial.

Lets consider it success if a person  owns a dog and consequently , a person without a dog will be a failure.'

Let the random variable X represent the number of persons to be interviewed to get 5 dog owner: in other words, to get 5 successors.

Probability of a success in each trial is p = 0.3. Therefore probability of a failure in each trial is q = 1 - p = 0.7 .

Because trials are independent. X has a negative binomial distribution with parameters k = 5, p = 0.3

P(X =x ) = b(x: k, p) = [(x-1)(k-1)] p^kq^r^-^k

where, x = k , k + 1 , k + 2......(1)

Now, Lets find the probability that the tenth person randomly interviewed in that city is the fifth one to own a dog

Using equation (1), we get:

P(X = 10) = b(10: 5, 0.3)

                = [(10-1) (5 - 1)](0.3)^5(0.7)^1^0^-^5

               = [(9)(4)] (0.3)^5(0.7)^1^0^-^5

               = 0.05146

Hence, The probability that the tenth person randomly interviewed in that city is the fifth one to own a dog = 0.051
