Answer:
0.5041 = 50.41% probability of getting 2 of the same colour
Step-by-step explanation:
A probability is the number of desired outcomes divided by the number of total outcomes.
What is the probability of getting 2 of the same colour?
Both blue or both red
Since they are replaced, we have, in each trial:
6 blue from a set of 6 + 5 = 11
5 red from a set of 6 + 5 = 11
Probability of both blue:
Each with 6/11 probability. So
Probability of both red:
Each with 5/11 probability. So
Total:
0.5041 = 50.41% probability of getting 2 of the same colour
Answer:
* Lucy spent £289.2 on tiles *
Step-by-step explanation:
We know that the tiles are present in a 13 to 2 ratio ( 13 : 2 ) so if there are 16 blue tiles that she buys, the number of red tiles bought should be represented the following -
=
... now this is only assuming that the 13 : 2 ratio is meant by white : blue tiles. Let's solve through cross - multiplication,
13 16 = 2
,
208 = 2,
= 104 white tiles
So if there are 104 white tiles, and 16 blue tiles, we can determine the total amount Lucy spent on tiles by associating the cost to the type of tile,
£2.80 16 = £44.8,
£2.35 104 = £244.4,
Total Amount Lucy Spent on Tiles = £44.8 + £244.4 = £289.2
