Answer:

Part A: impossible

Part B: Either equal or blue

Part C: 9 green and 2 blue were added

Step-by-step explanation:

Part A:

The only colors included in this problem are red, blue, and green. There is no black colored pencil, therefore, it is impossible to get one from the box.

Part B:

I'm not sure what you're asking in this question, but I will give you the two choices. If it is before the additional 11 colored pencils are added to the box, the chance of drawing a red and the chance of drawing a blue will be equal, because both of them have 11 of each color. If it is after the additional 11 colored pencils are added to the box, then the chance of drawing a blue colored pencil will be greater than the chance of drawing a red colored pencil. After the 11 colored pencils are added, there are 13 blue and 11 red. The blue is greater.

Part C:

The least number of green colored pencils added has to be 9, because the chance of drawing a green pencil is now greater than the chance of drawing a red pencil. If we add 8 more green pencils, the likelihood would be the same. Therefore, the number of green colored pencils added has to be at least 9. If we have the last 2 colored pencils be blue, then there would be 11 red, 13 blue, and 12 green. This fits all the conditions, therefore, adding 9 green colored pencils and 2 blue colored pencils is the answer.

I hope this helps and please mark me as brainliest!

Which expression is equivalent to the one below?

Citrus2011 [14]

Answer:

B. $5*\frac{1}{7}$

Step-by-step explanation:

5÷7 is also $\frac{5}{7}$ --that divided sign is what the fractional bar represents in a fraction.

now multiply $5*\frac{1}{7}=\frac{5}{1}*\frac{1}{7}=\frac{5*1}{1*7}=\frac{5}{7}$

both are the same result, so your answer is Choice B.

What is the likelihood that a fair coin will land heads or tails?

Marina CMI [18]

Answer:

I believe it is 0.5

Step-by-step explanation:

If you flip a normal coin (called a “fair” coin in probability parlance), you normally have no way to predict whether it will come up heads or tails. Both outcomes are equally likely. There is one bit of uncertainty; the probability of a head, written p(h), is 0.5 and the probability of a tail (p(t)) is 0.5. The sum of the probabilities of all the possible outcomes adds up to 1.0, the number of bits of uncertainty we had about the outcome before the flip. Since exactly one of the four outcomes has to happen, the sum of the probabilities for the four possibilities has to be 1.0. To relate this to information theory, this is like saying there is one bit of uncertainty about which of the four outcomes will happen before each pair of coin flips. And since each combination is equally likely, the probability of each outcome is 1/4 = 0.25. Assuming the coin is fair (has the same probability of heads and tails), the chance of guessing correctly is 50%, so you'd expect half the guesses to be correct and half to be wrong. So, if we ask the subject to guess heads or tails for each of 100 coin flips, we'd expect about 50 of the guesses to be correct. Suppose a new subject walks into the lab and manages to guess heads or tails correctly for 60 out of 100 tosses. Evidence of precognition, or perhaps the subject's possessing a telekinetic power which causes the coin to land with the guessed face up? Well,…no. In all likelihood, we've observed nothing more than good luck. The probability of 60 correct guesses out of 100 is about 2.8%, which means that if we do a large number of experiments flipping 100 coins, about every 35 experiments we can expect a score of 60 or better, purely due to chance.

Malachy, Sushil and Fiona share some sweets in the ratio 7:1:1. Malachy gets 90 more sweets than Fiona. How many sweets does Sus

VashaNatasha [74]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Fiona (F) = Sushi (S)

Malachy (M) = 7 Fiona (F)

M = F + 90

F + 90 = 7F

6F = 90

F (Fiona) = 15

S (Sushi) = 15

check: Malachy (M) = 15 * 7 = 105

M-F = 105 - 15 = 90
