A bag of skittles contains 7 purple, 4 red, 6 yellow, and 5 green skittles. Randomly I will grab a skittle, eat it and then grab

another to eat. What is the probability that I will get a purple and then red?

Answer:

The probability will be $\frac{1}{2}$ , since there are a total of 11 purple and red Skittles and an overall total of 22 Skittles in the bag.

What is the perimeter of triangle ABC ? 11 units 14 units 16 units 20 units Coordinate graph showing triangle A B C. Triangle A

professor190 [17]

Answer:

The perimeter is equal to $16\ units$

Step-by-step explanation:

we have that

$A(-1,1),B(2,5),C(5,1)$

The perimeter of triangle ABC is equal to

$P=AB+BC+AC$

the formula to calculate the distance between two points is equal to

$d=\sqrt{(y2-y1)^{2}+(x2-x1)^{2}}$

step 1

Find the distance AB

$A(-1,1),B(2,5)$

$AB=\sqrt{(5-1)^{2}+(2+1)^{2}}$

$AB=\sqrt{(4)^{2}+(3)^{2}}$

$AB=\sqrt{25}$

$AB=5\ units$

step 2

Find the distance BC

$B(2,5),C(5,1)$

$BC=\sqrt{(1-5)^{2}+(5-2)^{2}}$

$BC=\sqrt{(-4)^{2}+(3)^{2}}$

$BC=\sqrt{25}$

$BC=5\ units$

step 3

Find the distance AC

$A(-1,1),C(5,1)$

$AC=\sqrt{(1-1)^{2}+(5+1)^{2}}$

$AC=\sqrt{(0)^{2}+(6)^{2}}$

$AC=\sqrt{36}$

$AC=6\ units$

step 4

Find the perimeter

$P=5+5+6=16\ units$

I uhh need the question.. lol

Step-by-step explanation:

cat is 31%

dog is 42%

hamster is 19%

fish is 8%

62+84+38+16=200

62/200=0.31

84/200=0.42

38/200=0.19

Answer:

0.096

Step-by-step explanation:

The bag contains 10 white , 12 blue, 13 red , 7 yellow and 8 green balls.

All the events of drawing a ball will be independent

so selecting one ball white and one red will be

using the multiplication rule of probability we get

P= P(blue)* P(white) + P(white)*P(blue)

as its said to get one blue and one white but does not specify to get which ball at which place

P= $\frac{12}{50}*\frac{10}{50} + \frac{10}{50}*\frac{12}{50}$

P= $\frac{240}{2500}$ = 0.096
