Answer:
A. [tex]\frac{4}{10}[/tex]
B. [tex]\frac{3}{4}[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
Given - Box A contains 3 red and 2 blue marbles while Box B contains 2
red and 8 blue marbles. A fair coin is tossed. If the coin turns up
heads, a marble is chosen from Box A; if it turns up tails, a marble
is chosen from Box B.
To find - A. Find the probability that a red marble is chosen.
B. Referring to above information, suppose that the person who
tosses the coin does not reveal whether it has turned up
heads or tails (so that the box from which a marble was
chosen is not revealed) but does reveal that a red marble was
chosen. What is the probability that Box A was chosen (i.e.,
the coin turned up heads)?
Proof -
As given ,
Box A : 3 red marbles and 2 blue marbles.
Box B : 2 red marbles and 8 blue marbles.
a.)
As we have to find the probability that a red marble is chosen.
A red marble is chosen in two different ways - either it can be from Box A or Box be .
If Box A is chosen , then Probability of red ball is [tex]\frac{3}{5}[/tex]
If Box B is chosen , Then Probability of Red ball is [tex]\frac{2}{10} = \frac{1}{5}[/tex]
Now,
Probability of Box A is Chosen = [tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex]
Probability of Box B is chosen = [tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex]
∴ we get
Probability that a Red marble is chosen = [tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex]×[tex]\frac{3}{5}[/tex] + [tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex]×[tex]\frac{1}{5}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{3}{10} + \frac{1}{10} = \frac{4}{10}[/tex] = 0.4
b.)
Now,
Probability that Box A is chosen given that Red marble is chosen is
P(Box A | Red marble ) = [tex]\frac{(\frac{3}{5})(\frac{1}{2}) }{(\frac{3}{5})(\frac{1}{2}) + (\frac{1}{5})(\frac{1}{2})} = \frac{\frac{3}{10} }{\frac{3}{10} + \frac{1}{10} } = \frac{\frac{3}{10} }{\frac{4}{10}}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{3}{4}[/tex]
A biologist is growing a population of bacteria for a study. The number of millions of bacteria in the population is modeled by a function, f(x), where x is the number of days since yesterday. The table shows values of f(x) for different values of x.

The function f(x) can be represented by the equation f(x)=ax+b. Enter the value for a and b in the equation f(x)=ax+b.
Answer:
y = 2x
Step-by-step explanation:
Complete a table of values for –2 < x < 2. Connect the points on the graph with a smooth curve.
Y=-1|x-2|+1 how to solve
Answer:
if x ≥ 2, then y = x - 1
if x < 2, then y = -x + 3
Step-by-step explanation:
y = 1* |x - 2| + 1
y = |x-2| + 1
*** The rule on absolute value: |a| =a, if a ≥ 0; |a| = -a, if a < 0
If x-2 ≥ 0, then |x-2| = x-2, so y = (x - 2) + 1 = x - 1; y = x - 1
So if x ≥ 2, then y = x - 1
If x-2 < 0, then |x-2| = -(x-2) = -x + 2, so y = {-x + 2} + 1 = -x + 3; y = -x + 3
So if x < 2, then y = -x + 3

5x^2-4x=6 help!!! Thank you in advance !
Answer:
x = 2 ± √34/5
Step-by-step explanation:
Move terms to the left side.
5x^2 - 4x = 6
5x^2 - 4x -6 = 0
Identify a, b, and c before plugging them into the quadratic formula.
a = 5
b = -4
c = -6
x = -(-4) ± √(-4)^2 - 4 * 5(-6)/2 * 5
Then simplify.
what is the following sum
Answer:
2nd option is the correct answer
[tex] 12{b}^{2} \bigg(\sqrt[3]{2a} \bigg)[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
[tex]3 {b}^{2} \bigg( \sqrt[3]{54a} \bigg) + 3 \bigg( \sqrt[3]{2a {b}^{6} } \bigg) \\ \\ = 3 {b}^{2} \bigg( \sqrt[3]{27 \times 2a} \bigg) + 3 \bigg( \sqrt[3]{2a {( {b}^{2} )}^{3} } \bigg) \\ \\ = 3 {b}^{2} \bigg( \sqrt[3]{ {3}^{3} \times 2a} \bigg) + 3 \bigg({\sqrt[3]{{( {b}^{2} )}^{3}2a} } \bigg) \\ \\ = 3 {b}^{2} \times 3 \sqrt[ 3]{2a} + 3 {b}^{2} \sqrt[3]{2a} \\ \\ = 9 {b}^{2} \sqrt[ 3]{2a} + 3 {b}^{2} \sqrt[3]{2a} \\ \\ = 12{b}^{2} \bigg(\sqrt[3]{2a} \bigg)[/tex]
Answer:
second option: 12b²(∛2a)
Step-by-step explanation:
you can break [tex]\sqrt[3]{54a}[/tex] into [tex]\sqrt[3]{3^3(2a)}[/tex] which equals 3[tex]\sqrt[3]{2a}[/tex]
you can break [tex]\sqrt[3]{2ab^6}[/tex] into [tex]\sqrt[3]{2ab^3b^3}[/tex] which equals b²[tex]\sqrt[3]{2a}[/tex]
now we can simplify: (3b² · 3[tex]\sqrt[3]{2a}[/tex]) + 3b²[tex]\sqrt[3]{2a}[/tex] = 9b²[tex]\sqrt[3]{2a}[/tex] + 3b²[tex]\sqrt[3]{2a}[/tex]
this equals 12b²[tex]\sqrt[3]{2a}[/tex]

You have different lengths of material to use for a craft project:
0.93m 1.24m 0.62m 3.41m 1.5m 1.4m
Convert each length to centimetres, and then add them together to correctly calculate the total length.
Answer:
[tex]Lengths: 93cm, 124cm, 62cm, 341cm, 150cm, 140cm[/tex]
[tex]Total := 910cm[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
[tex]Lengths: 0.93m, 1.24m, 0.62m, 3.41m, 1.5m, 1.4m[/tex]
Required
Convert to length and calculate the total
To calculate to centimeters, we simply multiply each length to 100.
So, we have:
[tex]Lengths: 0.93m, 1.24m, 0.62m, 3.41m, 1.5m, 1.4m) * 100[/tex]
[tex]Lengths: 93cm, 124cm, 62cm, 341cm, 150cm, 140cm[/tex]
The total is:
[tex]Total := 93cm+ 124cm+ 62cm+ 341cm+ 150cm+ 140cm[/tex]
[tex]Total := 910cm[/tex]
find the hcf 8x(x - 2) -2(x - 2)
We can see both terms have a (x-2) in them.
We can also see that 8 and 2 are both even so there is a 2 in common.
This means that the gcd or hcf or whatever you call it is 2(x-2)
**Just mentioning most of the time we call it the GCD(greatest common divisor) or the GCF(greatest common factor) and almost never uses hcf :)

Step-by-step explanation:
in a major study by the statistics classes at Washington High School, city parking spaces were examined for compliance with the requirement to put money in the parking meters. Overall, the students found that 76% of metered parking places had meters that had NOT expired, and 24% had meters that were expired. If the traffic officer in charge of ticketing cars with expired meters checks meters at random, what is the probability he will find an expired meter BEFORE the 3rd one
Answer:
0.4224 = 42.24% probability he will find an expired meter BEFORE the 3rd one
Step-by-step explanation:
For each car, there is a 24% probability that it had expired parking meters.
What is the probability he will find an expired meter BEFORE the 3rd one?
Three possible outcomes:
Two expired(each with 24% probability)
First expired(24% probability) and second not(76% probability)
First not(76% probability) and second expired(24% probability). So
[tex]p = 0.24^2 + 2*0.24*0.76 = 0.4224[/tex]
0.4224 = 42.24% probability he will find an expired meter BEFORE the 3rd one

If 2/3z = 6, then z=
Answer:
z=9
Step-by-step explanation:
we are given: 2/3z=6
we need to find what z is by itself
6 is 2/3rds of what the value of z is.
to find z, we need to multiply both sides by 3/2 (the reciprocal of 2/3z, to make the coefficient of 1)
3/2*2/3z=6*3/2
z=9
hope this helps :)
z = 9
Step-by-step explanation:
2/3 . z = 6
2z/3 = 6
Multiple all terms by the same value to eliminate fraction denominator,
3 x 2z/3 = 3 x 6
2z = 18 ( 3,3 got cancelled)
Divide both sides of the equation by the same term,
2z/2 = 18/2
On Simplify,
z = 9.
*(2,2 gets cancelled and 18/2 = 9)
