A bag contains n white tiles and five black tiles. The tiles are all equal in shape and sizes. A tile is drawn at random and is replaced. A second tile is then drawn.
Find
a) the probability that the first tile is white
b) the probability that both the first and second tiles are white

Answers

Answer 1

We know that our bag has n white tiles and 5 black tiles.

So, the total number of tiles in the bag is n + 5.

We know that a tile is drawn at random and is replaced, then a second tile is drawn.

a) We want to find the probability that the first tile is white.

Because all the tiles have the same probability of being randomly drawn, the probability of drawing a white tile is just the quotient between the number of white tiles and the total number of tiles in the bag.

[tex]P = n/(n + 5)[/tex]

And for the second draw, we do not have any restrictions, so the probability is the above one.

[tex]P = n/(n + 5)[/tex]

b) Now we want both tiles to be white.

For the first one we already know the probability, which is:

[tex]P = n/(n + 5)[/tex]

And because the tile is replaced, the probability of drawing a white tile again is exactly the same:

[tex]Q =n/(n + 5)[/tex]

The joint probability (the probability of both of these outcomes to happen together) is the product of the individual probabilities.

Probability = [tex]P*Q = (n/(n + 5))^2[/tex]

The following box plot shows the number of years during which 24 schools have participated in an interschool swimming meet:
A box and whisker plot is drawn using a number line from 0 to 10 with primary markings and labels at 0, 5, 10. In between two primary markings are 4 secondary markings. The box extends from 1 to 6 on the number line. There is a vertical line at 3.5. The whiskers end at 0 and 8. Above the plot is written Duration of Participation. Below the plot is written Years.

At least how many schools have participated for 1 year or less?

6 schools
8 schools
12 schools
14 schools

Answers

Answer:

6 schools

Step-by-step explanation:

The answer is 6 schools.

In a box and whisker plot, every piece of whisker or box represents 25% of the whole number of schools.

The schools participated 1 year or less are represented by the left part of the whisker. Which stands for 25%.

To make an equation we need to set 100% = 24 and solve for 25% :

[tex] \frac{25}{100} = \frac{x}{24} [/tex]

Problem 2:
If the boundary lines of two half planes are parallel, then they have no solution area. True or False?

Please answer as quick as possible and please answer as
Example:
True, because . . . .

Thanks again!!

Answers

Step-by-step explanation:

First, a half plane can be defined as one side of a line, e.g. x < y-3.

1: True. A solution to two half planes is where the two half planes intersect. If they never intersect, then there literally cannot be a solution.

2: False. Take, for example, y=x and y=x+1. These two lines are parallel because in the equation y=mx+b, m represents the slope, and in these two lines, x is multiplied by 1, so both lines have the same slope and are therefore parallel. Then, take two boundary planes -- y > x and y>x+1. If we graph this out (see picture), the planes clearly intersect when y>x+1. The solution is where the planes intersect, so there is a solution area

The size of the angles of a quadrilateral are in the ratio
1:2:3:3. Calculate the size of each angle.

Answers

Answer:

40°, 80°, 120°, 120°

Step-by-step explanation:

sum the parts of the ratio, 1 + 2 + 3 + 3 = 9 parts

The sum of the interior angles of a quadrilateral is 360°

Divide this by 9 to find the value of one part of the ratio.

360° ÷ 9 = 40° ← value of 1 part of the ratio

Then

2 parts = 2 × 40° = 80°

3 parts = 3 × 40° = 120°

The 4 angles are 40°, 80°, 120°, 120°

Find the length of the third side. If necessary, round to the nearest tenth. 5 10 ​

Answers

Answer:

[tex]\boxed {\boxed {\sf 8.7}}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

We are asked to find the length of the third side in a triangle, given the other 2 sides.

Since this is a right triangle (note the small square in the corner of the triangle representing a 90 degree /right angle), we can use the Pythagorean Theorem.

[tex]a^2 + b^2 =c^2[/tex]

In this theorem, a and b are the legs of the triangle and c is the hypotenuse.

We know that the unknown side (we can say it is a) and the side measuring 5 are the legs because they form the right angle. The side measuring 10 is the hypotenuse because it is opposite the right angle.

b= 5 c= 10

Substitute the values into the formula.

[tex]a^2 + (5)^2 = (10)^2[/tex]

Solve the exponents.

(5)²= 5*5 = 25 (10)²= 10*10= 100

[tex]a^2 + 25=100[/tex]

We are solving for a, so we must isolate the variable. 25 is being added to a. The inverse operation of addition is subtraction, so we subtract 25 from both sides.

[tex]a^2 +25-25=100-25[/tex]

[tex]a^2=100-25[/tex]

[tex]a^2 = 75[/tex]

a is being squared. The inverse of a square is the square root, so we take the square root of both sides.

[tex]\sqrt {a^2}= \sqrt{75}[/tex]

[tex]a= \sqrt{75}[/tex]

[tex]a= 8.660254038[/tex]

Round to the nearest tenth. The 6 in the hundredth place tells us to round the 6 up to a 7 in the tenth place.

[tex]a \approx 8.7[/tex]

The length of the third side is approximately 8.7

Perpendicular=P=5Hypontenuse=H=10Base=B=?

Using Pythagorean theorem

[tex]\boxed{\sf B^2=H^2-P^2}[/tex]

Putting values

[tex]\\ \sf \longmapsto B^2=10^2-5^2[/tex]

[tex]\\ \sf \longmapsto B^2=100-25[/tex]

[tex]\\ \sf \longmapsto B^2=75[/tex]

[tex]\\ \sf \longmapsto B=\sqrt{75}[/tex]

[tex]\\ \sf \longmapsto B=\sqrt{25\times 3}[/tex]

[tex]\\ \sf \longmapsto B=5\sqrt{3}[/tex]

A bag of marbles contains 11 blue marbles, 4 green marbles, and 5 purple marbles. What is the probability of drawing a green marble, removing it, and then drawing a purple marble?

Answers

Answer:

1/19

Step-by-step explanation:

11 blue marbles, 4 green marbles, and 5 purple marbles = 20 marbles

P( green) = green / total = 4/20 = 1/5

Now keep the green

11 blue marbles, 3 green marbles, and 5 purple marbles = 19 marbles

P(purple) = purple/ total = 5/19

P(green, keep,purple) = 1/5 * 5/19 = 1/19

Rectangular pyramid volume: 120 ft³

Total volume of the composite figure: 120+840 = 960 ft³

Answer:

Rectangular Pyramid volume = 84 ft^3
Rectangular Prism volume = 840 ft^3
Total volume = 924 ft^3

Step-by-step explanation:

Rectangular pyramid volume = 1/3 bh
Rectangular pyramid volume = 1/3 (84)(3)
Rectangular pyramid volume = 1/3 252
Rectangular pyramid volume = 84

Rectangular prism volume = l • w • h
Rectangular prism volume = 12 • 10 • 7
Rectangular prism volume = 840

840 + 84 = the total volume of the composite

v is the midpoint of RU and T is the midpoint of SU If RS=w and TV=w–23, what is the value of w?

Answers

Answer:

w = 46

Step-by-step explanation:

V is the midpoint of RU, so VU = 1/2 RUT is the midpoint of SU, so UT = 1/2 SU

And we have:

RS = w, or RU + SU = w

Also we have:

TV = w - 23,

or substitute as above given:

VU + UT = w - 231/2 RU + 1/2 SU = w - 231/2 (RU + SU) = w - 231/2 w = w - 23w - 1/2 w = 231/2 w = 23w = 23*2w = 46

Hope this helps. Please mark as brainliest

The correct answer is 210

They can do this in ¹⁰C₄ ways. Because there is no order to be followed while selecting, we use the combinations formula

What is combination?

ⁿCₓ = n!/x!(n-x)! , where n is the number of people, and x is the sample

Substituting n = 10, x = 4, we get

​¹⁰C₄ = 10!/4!(10-4)!

¹⁰C₄ = 10!/4!6!

¹⁰C₄ = 10*9*8*7*6/4!6!

¹⁰C₄ = 10*9*8*7/4*3*2*1

¹⁰C₄ = 210

So, the group of 4 members can be sent in 210 ways.
