<h3>Answer:</h3>

2/15

<h3>Explanation:</h3>

There are 8C2 = 28 ways to choose 2 dimes from the 8 dimes in Annie's purse. There are 21C2 = 210 ways to choose 2 coins from the 21 coins in Annie's purse.

Of the 210 ways to choose 2 coins, 28 of the choices will result in 2 dimes being chosen. The probability of choosing 2 dimes is 28/210 = 2/15.

_____

<em>Comment on nCk</em>

The number of ways to choose k objects from n, when order does not matter, is ...

... n!/(k!(n -k)!)

For the computations above, we have ...

... 8C2 = 8·7/(2·1) = 28

... 21C2 = 21·20/(2·1) = 210

Translate the following from words to an algebraic expression or equation, denoting the unknown by n.
IrinaK [193]

The translation from words to an algebraic expression, denoting the unknown by n is 0.15(n + 10,000)

<h3>Algebraic expression</h3><h3 />

let

unknown number = n

  • a number exceeds 10,000

= n + 1000

  • 15% of the amount by which a number exceeds 10,000

= 15%(n + 10000)

= 15/100(n + 10,000)

= 0.15(n + 10,000)

A jar is filled with 74 different colored marbles, 10 of which are red, 38 of which are blue, and 26 of which are green. A playe
Alex_Xolod [135]

Solution :

Colored marble            Prize

     Red ----  10               20

    Blue --- 38                 10

   Green --- 26               5

P(red)  =  10/74  =  5/37

P(blue)  =  38/74  =  19/37

P( green)  = 26/74  =  13/37

Therefore,

 X      →     Red          Blue      Green

P(X)           5/37        19/37      13/37

The expected values are :

$20 \times \frac{5}{37} - 10 \times \frac{19}{37} - 5 \times \frac{13}{37}

= -4.189

Thus it is not profitable to play the game.
