Answer:

  • 33 white, 3 blue, 14 red

Step-by-step explanation:

  • White = w, Blue = b, Red = r

<u>Given:</u>

  • w = 11b
  • r < w
  • b < r
  • w + b + r = 50

<u>The last equation can be written as:</u>

  • 11b + b + r = 50
  • 12b + r = 50

<u>Possible values of b are 1, 2, 3, 4</u>

  • Since b < r, we exclude b = 4

<u>If b = 1</u>

  • w = 11,
  • r = 50 - 12 = 38 but number of red should be less than white, excluded as r < w is not met

<u>If b = 2</u>

  • w = 22,
  • r = 50 - 24 = 26, still same condition as above, excluded as r < w is not met

<u>If b = 3</u>

  • w = 33,
  • r = 50 - 36 = 14, this is the only correct option to consider

IF P(A)=1/3, P(B)=2/5, and P(AuB)=3/5, what is P(A^B)?
Bumek [7]

The probability of the union of two events is the sum of their probability, minus the probability of their interserction:

P(A \cup B) = P(A) + P(B) - P(A \cap B)

If we plug the known values into this formula, we have

\dfrac{3}{5} = \dfrac{1}{3} + \dfrac{2}{5} - P(A\cap B)

From which we can deduce

P(A\cap B) = \dfrac{1}{3} + \dfrac{2}{5} - \dfrac{3}{5} = \dfrac{2}{15}

So, the probability of A \setminus B is a bit less than P(A), we have to take away all events that belong to B as well:

P(A \setminus B) = P(A) - P(A\cap B) = \dfrac{1}{3} - \dfrac{2}{15} = \dfrac{1}{5}
