Answer:
a) 0.75
b) 0.0625
c) 0.1875
d) 0.375
Step-by-step explanation:
Let's start by first finding the probability a teacher orders 6 boxes. Since it is a four sided dice, the probability of getting a 1 is going to be 0.25.
Similarly, for any other number on the dice, the teacher orders 2 boxes. We can think of this as NOT rolling a 1. Using our previous answer, this comes out to be: 1 - 0.25 = 0.75
It should be remembered in the following answers that teachers ordering 6 or 2 boxes are not influenced by the results of other teachers. These are statistically independent events.
a) As given above, this probability is 0.75
b) The probability that both teachers order 6 boxes will be their individual probabilities multiplied. This comes out to be: 0.25 x 0.25 = 0.0625
c) Like in part (b), this is both of their probabilities multiplied:
0.25 x 0.75 = 0.1875
d) This is nearly the same as part (c), but with a little twist. The order matters. There are two scenarios:
- First teacher gets 6 boxes, and the second gets 2.
- First teacher gets 2 boxes, and the second gets 2.
Both of these events have a probability of 0.1875, as shown in (c). To get the total probability of this event happening, we must add these together:
0.1875 + 0.1875 = 0.375
Answer:
1. false
2. false
3. true
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
245 tiles
Step-by-step explanation:
1 meter = 100 cm
Area of bathroom = 3.5m x 2.8m = 350x280 = 9800 cm²
Area of each tile = 20cm x 20cm = 400 cm²
Total number of tiles required = 9800/400 = 245
<u>Note</u>
Strictly speaking we have to find out how many tiles can be fitted in the length and breadth of the bathroom. Since the bathroom is 350 cm wide, we can fit 350/20cm = 17.5 tiles. However, there is no concept of 1/2 tile so the question has an ambiguity. along the width, we can fit 280/10 = 14 tiles
17.5 x 14 = 245 but if the question is reworded to how many tiles do we need to purchase to floor the bathroom it would be 18 x 14 = 252
