Two flower seeds are randomly selected from a package that contains 8 seeds for red flowers and 9 seeds for white flowers. (Give your answer correct to three decimal places.)
(a) What is the probability that both seeds will result in red flowers?

Incorrect: Your answer is incorrect.


(b) What is the probability that one of each color is selected?


(c) What is the probability that both seeds are for white flowers?

Answers

Answer 1

Using the hypergeometric distribution, it is found that the probabilities are given as follows:

a) 0.2059 = 20.59%.

b) 0.5294 = 52.94%.

c) 0.2647 = 26.47%.

What is the hypergeometric distribution formula?

The formula is:

[tex]P(X = x) = h(x,N,n,k) = \frac{C_{k,x}C_{N-k,n-x}}{C_{N,n}}[/tex]

[tex]C_{n,x} = \frac{n!}{x!(n-x)!}[/tex]

The parameters are:

x is the number of successes.N is the size of the population.n is the size of the sample.k is the total number of desired outcomes.

In this problem, the parameters are as follows: N = 17, k = 8, n = 2.

Item a:

This probbility is P(X = 2), hence:

[tex]P(X = x) = h(x,N,n,k) = \frac{C_{k,x}C_{N-k,n-x}}{C_{N,n}}[/tex]

[tex]P(X = 2) = h(2,17,2,2) = \frac{C_{8,2}C_{9,0}}{C_{17,2}} = 0.2059[/tex]

Item b:

This probbility is P(X = 1), hence:

[tex]P(X = x) = h(x,N,n,k) = \frac{C_{k,x}C_{N-k,n-x}}{C_{N,n}}[/tex]

[tex]P(X = 1) = h(1,17,2,2) = \frac{C_{8,1}C_{9,1}}{C_{17,2}} = 0.5294[/tex]

Item c:

This probbility is P(X = 0), hence:

[tex]P(X = x) = h(x,N,n,k) = \frac{C_{k,x}C_{N-k,n-x}}{C_{N,n}}[/tex]

[tex]P(X = 0) = h(0,17,2,2) = \frac{C_{8,0}C_{9,2}}{C_{17,2}} = 0.2647[/tex]

Which two numbers have a mean of 10 and a range of 4?

Answers

Answer:

I belive the correct answers are 8 and 12

Step-by-step explanation:

What is the value of x?

Answers

Answer:

12

Step-by-step explanation:

(10x - 20) + (6x + 8) = 180

16x - 12 = 180

16x = 192

x= 12

Hi there!

This is an example of supplementary angles, angles that sum up to 180° (they form a straight line).

Summing these two angles up equals 180°, so:

180° = (10x - 20)° + (6x + 8)°

We can drop the ° sign for ease of solving.

180 = 10x - 20 + 6x + 8

Combine like terms:

180 = (10x + 6x) - (20 + 8)

180 = 16x - 12

Add 12 to both sides:

192 = 16x

Divide both sides by 16:

192/16 = 16x/16

x = 12°

Determine the Value of x for the diagram shown.

A) 30
B) 45
C) 60
D) 80

Answers

X = 60
180 - 120 = 60 so that gives you the angle next to 120 then since it’s an isosceles triangle the next 2 angles are going to be the same because of the 2 dash’s so you do 180 - 60 = 120
120 divided by 2 equals 60

What is a right-angle triangle?

An isosceles triangle, which consists of a pair of sides as well as sides with angles identically, is additionally recognized as a right triangle. Two 45° angles and a 90° angle make up a right isosceles triangle. The triangle's three sides add up to 180 degrees in total.

The information that is provided is with respect to the right triangle:

Side 1 is given as = 9

Side 1 is given as = 12

Applying the Pythagoras theorem:

[tex]H^{2} = S1^{2} + S2^{2} \\= 9^{2} + 12^{2} \\\\= 81 + 144\\=225\\h = \sqrt{225} \\h = 15[/tex]

The phone company offers Rachel 12c per minute for her long distance calls. A discount company called Rachel and offered her long service for 1/2c per minute, but will charge a R46 monthly fee. How many minutes per month must Rachel talk on the phone to make the discount a better deal?

Answers

Step-by-step explanation:

x = number of minutes

the cost function (in c) of the phone company is

cp(x) = 12x

and the cost function of the discount company is

cd(x) = x/2 + 4600 (R46)

we now need to calculate for what x this becomes the same cost :

12x = x/2 + 4600

24x = x + 9200

23x = 9200

x = 400 minutes

she would have to talk for at least 400 minutes long distance per month to make it an even or then better deal.

with 400 minutes being the break-even point.

so, to make it a better deal (not just equal), she has to talk for at least 401 minutes per month.
