Answer:

2/7

Step-by-step explanation:

6 large fish and 8 small fish (half of the them are red = 4)

total fish 6 + 8 = 14 fishes

probability that one fish is one small and red fish is

there are 4 small and red fish

= 4c1 / 14c1

= (4! / (1! (4 - 1)! )  /  (14! / (1! (14-1)! )

= 4/14

= 2/7

alisha [4.7K]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

You can split the coins into 3 groups, each of them has 3 coins. Weigh group 1 vs group 2, if one is lighter, that group has the fake coin. If both groups weigh the same, then group 3 has the fake coin.

Continue to split the group that has the fake coin into 3 groups, each group has 1 coin. Now apply the same procedure and we can identify the fake coin.

Total of scale usage is 2

b) if you have 3^n coins then you can apply the same approach and find the fake coin with just n steps. By splitting up to 3 groups each step, after each step you should be able to narrow down your suspected coin by 3 times.

Step 1: you narrow down to group of \frac{3^n}{3} = 3^{n-1} coins

Step 2: you narrow down to group of \frac{3^{n-1}}{3} = 3^{n-2} coins

Step 3: you narrow down to group of \frac{3^{n-2}}{3} = 3^{n-3} coins

...

Step n: Step 1: you narrow down to group of 3^{n-n} = 3^0 = 1coin

Elan Coil [88]

Answer:

Therefore, the probability is P=0.74.

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that Jose estimates that if he leaves his car parked outside his office all day on a weekday, the chance that he will get a parking ticket is 26%.  

Therefore the probability that he will get a parking ticket is P1=0.26.

We calculate the probability that he will not get a parking ticket.

We get:

P=1-P1

P=1-0.26

P=0.74

Therefore, the probability is P=0.74.

Solve y + -7 = 13 ?
ratelena [41]
Well first off if you have a negative sign in front of the seven, DO NOT have a plus sign because it will be confusing. So y-7=13? , You add 7 to 13 and = 20, so y= 20
