Answer:
A
Step-by-step explanation:
We have the expression:
And we want to find its sign given that a>0 and b<0.
Notice that the expression is already negative since we have -4.
a>0 means that a is positive. Therefore, we can ignore it since it won’t do anything.
b<0 means that b is negative. Therefore, we will have two negatives being multiplied together. Hence, this will make a positive.
Therefore, the sign of our expression will be positive.
We can see this with an example. Let a=1 (1>0) and let b=-1 (-1<0). Then:
So, the sign is positive.
Hence, the answer is A.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
There are
2 yellow
3 magenta
5 blue
marbles in the bag.
So total of 2 + 3 + 5 = 10 marbles
We have to multiply the probability of yellow on first pick by the probability of yellow on second pick (WITHOUT REPLACEMENT).
We denote P(Y1) as probability of yellow on first draw &
P(Y2) as probability of yellow on second draw
Thus,
P(Y1) = 2/10 = 1/5 [since 2 yellow and 10 total marbles]
Now,
P(Y2) = 1/9 [since now 1 yellow is taken out and NOT replaced, so we have 1 yellow remaining and total 9 marbles]
Now, we multiply:
P(Y1) * P(Y2) = 1/5 * 1/9 = 1/45
The probability is
