An urn contains three red balls and four blue balls. Draw two balls at random from the urn, without replacement. Compute the expected number of red balls in your sample. (Round your answer to four decimal places.)

Answers

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

in total we have 3+4 = 7 balls.

when we draw the first ball, the probability to draw a red ball is 3/7, and a blue ball 4/7.

when we draw the second ball, we have now only 6 balls in total.

the probabilty to draw a red back now depends also on the result of the first draw.

if the first ball was already red, then we have only a chance now of 2 out of 6.

if the first ball was blue, then we have now a chance of 3 out of 6.

so, the probably to draw at least 1 red ball in 2 draws is the probability of drawing one on the first draw plus the probability of drawing one on the second :

1 - probability to see 2 blue balls

1 - 4/7 × 3/6 = 1 - 12/42 = 30/42 = 0.714285714...

the expected number of red balls in 2 draws is

1 red in first red in first red in second

but not second and second but not first

1×(3/7 × 4/6) + 2×(3/7 × 2/6) + 1×(4/7 × 3/6) = 12/42 + 12/42 + 12/42 = 36/42 = 6/7 = 0.857142857 ≈ 0.8571

Answer:

  60 nickels

Step-by-step explanation:

When a ratio between coins is given, I like to consider the problem in terms of groups of coins. Here, each group would consist of 1 nickel and 0.20 quarters. The value of that group is

  5¢ +0.20×25¢ = 10¢

Then the number of groups is ...

  (total value)/(value of 1 group) = number of groups

  600¢/10¢ = 60

Since each group has 1 nickel, there are 60 nickels.

__

Check

60 nickels + 12 quarters = $3.00 +3.00 = $6.00

_____

Additional comment

If you want to see this with equations and variables, you can do this.

Let n and q represent the numbers of nickels and quarters, respectively. The given relations are ...

  0.05n +0.25q = 6.00

  q = 0.20n

Substituting for q in the first equation gives ...

  0.05n +(0.25)(0.20n) = 6.00

Simplifying gives ...

  0.10n = 6.00

  n = 6.00/0.10 = 60

3 + 12 + 48 + 192 + ...

The equation had only one solution and the solution to the given equation is 1

Equations are expressions separated by an equality sign

Given the equation expressed as;

if v = 6i + 3j, what is ||-10v||

Answers

The values of ||-10v|| is 51.96 units

Complex numbers are square roots of negative numbers. They are expressions that consist of both the real and imaginary axis.

The general form of a complex number is expressed as z = x + iy

Given the complex number v = 6i + 3j,

10v is expressed as 10(6i + 3j)

10(6i + 3j) = 60i + 30j

Take the modulus of the complex number:

[tex]|10v|=\sqrt{60^2+30^2}\\|10v|= \sqrt{1800+900}\\|10v|= \sqrt{2700} \\|10v|=51.96units[/tex]

The number of potholes in any given 1 mile stretch of freeway pavement in Pennsylvania has a bell-shaped distribution. This distribution has a mean of 47 and a standard deviation of 7. Using the empirical rule, what is the approximate percentage of 1-mile long roadways with potholes numbering between 40 and 68?

Answers

Answer:   83.85%

This value is approximate.

==========================================================

Explanation:

Let's compute the z score for x = 40

z = (x-mu)/sigma

z = (40-47)/7

z = -1

We're exactly one standard deviation below the mean.

Repeat these steps for x = 68

z = (x-mu)/sigma

z = (68-47)/7

z = 3

This score is exactly three standard deviations above the mean.

Now refer to the Empirical Rule chart below. We'll add up the percentages that are between z = -1 and z = 3. This consists of the two pink regions (each 34%), the right blue region (13.5%) and the right green region (2.35%). These percentages are approximate.

34+34+13.5+2.35 = 83.85

Answer:

x = 3

Step-by-step explanation:

a triangle has 180 degrees in all

a square for an angle is 90 degrees

we can add them all together and get 180

90 + 45 + 8x + 21 = 180

combine like terms

156 + 8x = 180

subtract 156 to each side

8x = 24

then find x

x = 3

Answer:

x=3

Step-by-step explanation:

So the sum of angles of triangle is always 180 degrees.

We already have 45 and 90 but 8x+21 is unknown.

We can solve this by making an equation which is

45 + 90 + (8x+21) = 180.

If we solve this it will be

8x+21+135=180

8x+156 (-156) =180 (-156)

8x (/8) = 24 (/8)

x=3

x + y = 7, so x = 7 - y

14 - 2y + 3y = 18

14 + y = 18

y = 4
