- <u><em>Event A: 1/35</em></u>
- <u><em>Event B: 1/840</em></u>
<u><em></em></u>
Explanation:
<u>Event A</u>
For the event A, the order of the first 4 acts does not matter.
The number of different four acts taken from a set of seven acts, when the order does not matter, is calculated using the concept of combinations.
Thus, the number of ways that the first <em>four acts</em> can be scheduled is:


And<em> the number of ways that four acts is the singer, the juggler, the guitarist, and the violinist, in any order</em>, is 1: C(4,4).
Therefore the<em> probability of Event A</em> is:

Event B
Now the order matters. The difference between combinations and permutations is ordering. When the order matters you need to use permutations.
The number of ways in which <em>four acts </em>can be scheculed when the order matters is:


The number of ways <em>the comedian is first, the guitarist is second, the dancer is third, and the juggler is fourth</em> is 1: P(4,4)
Therefore, <em>the probability of Event B</em> is:

The chance that any given bulb is on is equal to 1/2. The chance that all twenty bulbs are on at the same time is
630 red marbles
420 yellow marbles
210 purple marbles
because 1260 x 1/2 = 630, 1260 x 1/3 = 420, 1260 x 1/6 = 210
Answer:
The probability that all will last at least 30,000 miles is 0.3164.
Step-by-step explanation:
Consider the provided information.
For a particular tire brand, the probability of wearing out before 30,000 miles is 0.25. Someone who buys a set of four of these tires,
That means the probability of not wearing out is 1-0.25 = 0.75
Now use the binomial distribution formula.

Substitute p = 0.25, q=0.75, r=4 and n=4



The probability that all will last at least 30,000 miles is 0.3164.
Answer:
1/64
Step-by-step explanation:
F(3) means to use 3 in place of x in the given equation.
f(x) = (1/4)^x
f(3) = (1/4)^3
Either use exponents rules:
= 1^3 / 4^3
= 1 / 64
or just use the meaning of exponents
= 1/4 × 1/4 × 1/4
= 1/64
