I believe what the problem means is that the height of the child, if he/she grows in height, the mesurements are equal to 1 ft, 2 ft, 3 ft, 4 ft, etc only. and no decimals or fractions in between. it is also said that a human stops growing at the age of 20 naturally, hence with this increment, a child can grow incredibly very tall.
Answer:
1/10x * 1/10x
Step-by-step explanation:
Writing a term with negative exponents is the same as putting it in a fraction.
10x^-1 = 1/10x
so the expression would be
1/10x * 1/10x
14/99
Select 1 marble; the chance that it is white is 4/12. Select a 2nd marble; the chance that it is white is 3/11. Select a 3rd; the chance it is white is 2/10. Select a 4th; the chance it is red is 8/9. Select a 5th; the chance it is red is 7/8. The chance of getting this specific set of 5 marbles in this order is (4/12)×(3/11)×(2/10)×(8/9)×(7/8)=(2×7)/(11×10×9).
This specific set could occur in the permutation of 5 things taken 5 at a time where 3 are identical (white), and the other 2 are also identical (red). The formula for this is 5!/(3!2!)=10.
Combining the chance of getting white, white, white, red, red with the number of ways 3 white and 2 red could have been distributed in the draw of 5 marbles gives the answer:
{(2×7)/(11×10×9)}×10=14/99
A similar process will show that the chance of getting 5 red marbles is 7/99; 4 white and 1 red is 1/99; 2 white and 3 red is 42/99; and 1 white and 4 red is 35/99.
Answer:
$12.5
Step-by-step explanation:
Since prize is split equally.
So, money received by each person
= 75/6
= $12.5
