ns four shirts one each in the colors black, navy, red, gray. Melanie has to get dressed in the dark, so she grabs A pair of shorts and a T-shirt at random. What is the probability that she selects a green pair shorts and a gray T-shirt?
(First of all, Melanie, you should really get a lamp. And second why is it you own more shorts than shirts?)

Answer: 1/24

---------------------------------------------------------------------
---------------------------------------------------------------------

Work Shown:

A = selects green pair of shorts
B = selects gray t-shirt

P(A) = probability of selecting green shorts
P(A) = (number of green shorts)/(number of shorts total)
P(A) = 1/6
P(B) = probability of selecting gray t-shirt
P(B) = (number of gray t-shirts)/(number of t-shirts total)
P(B) = 1/4

P(A and B) = probability of selecting green shorts AND gray t-shirt
P(A and B) = P(A)*P(B) ... since A and B are independent events
P(A and B) = (1/6)*(1/4)
P(A and B) = (1*1)/(6*4)
P(A and B) = 1/24

Note: The fraction 1/24 is approximately equal to 0.041667

If the rate of decrease for the partial pressure of N2H4 in a closed reaction vessel is 76 torr/h , what is the rate of change f
fiasKO [112]

The reaction is missing and it's ;

N2H4 + H2 ---> 2NH3

It asks for the total pressure too.

Answer:

A) Rate of change for NH3 = 152 torr/h

B) The total pressure in the vessel will remain the same.

Step-by-step explanation:

N2H4 + H2 ---> 2NH3

1 mole of N2H4 yields 2 moles of NH3.

From the question, the rate given for N2H4 is 76 torr/h.

Thus, The rate of change for NH3 will be = 2 x 76 = 152 torr/h

Now, on the reaction side, 1 mole of N2H4 reacts with 1 mole of H2. So we have 2 moles on the left hand side.

While on the product side, 2 moles of NH3 are produced.

So the total pressure will remain the same because for every 2 moles on the reaction side, 2 moles are gotten on the product side.

. On average, a clothing store gets 120 customers per day. Assume the store is open 12 hours each day. a) What is the probabilit
GuDViN [60]

Answer: 0.04854

Step-by-step explanation:

This is calculated by using the poisson distribution formula calculator. We first have to calculate the average number of success for the given hour then further calculate the poisson Probability for the question.

Average number of customers in first four hours = (4/12) * 120 = 40.

Randomly expected number of customers in First four hours = 35

Hence we input This randomly expected number of customers and average number of customers in our poisson calculator.

P(x=35) = 0.04854
