Calculate Total marbles:

Total marbles = Blue + Red + Green

Total marbles = 3 + 4 + 5

Total marbles = 12

Probability of a green = 5/12

Probability of not green = 1 - 5/12 = 7/12

To get exactly one green in two draws, we either get a green, not green, or a not green, green

First Draw Green, Second Draw Not Green

1st draw: Probability of a green = 5/12

2nd draw: Probability of not green = 7/11 <-- 11 since we did not replace the first marble

To get the probability of the event, since each draw is independent, we multiply both probabilities

Probability of the event is (5/12) * (7/11) = 35/132

First Draw Not Green, Second Draw Not Green

1st draw: Probability of not a green = 7/12

2nd draw: Probability of not green = 5/11 <-- 11 since we did not replace the first marble

To get the probability of the event, since each draw is independent, we multiply both probabilities

Probability of the event is (7/12) * (5/11) = 35/132

To get the probability of exactly one green, we add both of the events:

First Draw Green, Second Draw Not Green + First Draw Not Green, Second Draw Not Green

35/132 + 35/132 = 70/132

SO THE ANSWER IS 35/66

The radius of a cylindrical water tank is 6.5 ft, and its height is 19 ft. What is the volume of the tank?
creativ13 [48]

Answer:

The volume of the cylinder is 2520.64ft³

Step-by-step explanation:

To calculate the volume of a cylinder we have to use the following formula:

v = volume

h = height = 19ft

π = 3.14

r = radius = 6.5ft

v = (π * r²) * h

we replace with the known values

v = (3.14 * (6.5ft )²) * 19ft

v = (3.14 * 42.25ft²) * 19ft

v = 132.665ft² * 19ft

v = 2520.64ft³

The volume of the cylinder is 2520.64ft³

Use a calculator to find an approximate solution to the equation. Round any intermediate work and steps to three decimal places.
Mariana [72]
Given;
6Ln (x + 2.8) = 9.6 

We will transpose 6 in the Ln, so that we will leave Ln alone.
Ln (x + 2.8) = 9.6/6 = 1.6 

we divide the 9.6 to 6 and we get 1.6

x + 2.8 = e^1.6 
e^ for the substitution of Ln

x = e^1.6 - 2.8 
insert the e^(1.6) in the calculator and you will get 4.95303242439511 and subtract 2.8 and you will get the answer.

x = 2.153 
2.153 is the final answer in this question.
