Answer:

  8 gallons

Step-by-step explanation:

The $2 difference in the price of a car wash is made up by the gas purchase at the rate of $0.25 per gallon. So, it takes ...

  $2/($0.25/gal) = 8 gal

to make the costs the same.

The customer must purchase 8 gallons for the total cost to be the same at both gas stations.

___

  3.50g +8 = 3.25g +10 . . . . costs at each station for g gallons of gas + wash

  0.25g = 2 . . . . . . . . . subtract 3.25g+8 from both sides

  g = 2/.25 = 8 . . . . . . the way we did it above

Answer:

The probability is 0.3576

Step-by-step explanation:

The probability for the ball to fall into the green ball in one roll is 2/1919+2 = 2/40 = 1/20. The probability for the ball to roll into other color is, therefore, 19/20.

For 25 rolls, the probability for the ball to never fall into the green color is obteined by powering 19/20 25 times, hence it is 19/20^25 = 0.2773

To obtain the probability of the ball to fall once into the green color, we need to multiply 1/20 by 19/20 powered 24 times, and then multiply by 25 (this corresponds on the total possible positions for the green roll). The result is 1/20* (19/20)^24 *25 = 0.3649

The exercise is asking us the probability for the ball to fall into the green color at least twice. We can calculate it by substracting from 1 the probability of the complementary event: the event in which the ball falls only once or 0 times. That probability is obtained from summing the disjoint events: the probability for the ball falling once and the probability of the ball never falling. We alredy computed those probabilities.

As a result. The probability that the ball falls into the green slot at least twice is 1- 0.2773-0.3629 = 0.3576
