Answer:

1/24 chance

Step-by-step explanation:

To begin you would need to find the probability of picking a green sock which would be 3/9; and you could simplify this to 1/3.

After that you need to find the probability of picking a purple sock out of the 8 left, which would provide you with 1/8. To find the probability of both you would multiply 1/8 by 1/3 to find the combined probability which would leave you with 1/24.

The mean amount of water in 5 containers is 620 ml the total amount of water in 4 q of the containers is 2750 what is the amount

EleoNora [17]

The correct answer is:

350 ml.

Explanation:

Let x be the amount in the fifth container.

The mean is found by adding all of the amounts together and dividing by the number of containers (in this problem, 5). We know that the total from the other 4 containers is 2750; add this to x, our unknown number. Then we divide by 5 to arrive at our answer of 620.

Algebraically,
 $\frac{2750+x}{5}=620$ 

To solve, multiply both sides by 5:
 $\frac{2750+x}{5}\times 5=620\times 5
\\
\\2750+x=3100$ 

Subtract 2750 from both sides:
2750+x-2750=3100-2750
x=350.

There are 350 ml in the fifth container.
