A box of chocolates contains five milk chocolates, five dark chocolates, and five white chocolates. You randomly select and eat three chocolates. The first piece is milk chocolate, the second is dark chocolate, and the third is white chocolate. Is it independent or dependen?

Answers

Answer 1

The first piece is milk chocolate, the second is dark chocolate, and the third is white chocolate independent and the probability is 25/546.

What is probability ?

Probability of something is the occurrence of a certain event out of the total events that can occur.

According to the given question

The total no. of chocolates in the box is

(5 + 5+ 5) = 15 chocolates.

The probability of eating a milk chocolate first a dark chocolate second and a white chocolate third is an independent event because occurrence of next event do not depend upon the previous event.

There are 5 milk chocolates.

So, probability of getting a milk chocolate first is

P(mc) = 5/15

= 1/3

Now the the chocolate can no be replaced because it is eaten

Probability of getting a dark chocolate second is

P(dc) = 5/14                          (as the total no. of chocolate is reduced by 1

                                                                    because it has been eaten)  

And the probability of getting a white chocolate in 3rd attempt is

P(wc) = 5/13

As the first piece is milk chocolate, the second is dark chocolate, and the third is white chocolate is an independent event their probability is

P(mc) ∩ P(dc) ∩ P(wc)

= P(mc) × P(dc) × P(wc)

= (1/3 × 5/14 × 5/13)

= 25/546.

Your friend has $80 when he goes to the fair. He spends $4 to enter the fair and $12 on food. Rides at the fair cost $1 25 per ride. Which function can be used to determine how much money he has left over after x rides?​

Answers

Answer:

80m - (12+4) = x

Step-by-step explanation:

Hope this helps! I mean its self explanatory

Answer:

$38.75

Step-by-step explanation:

We can add up the amount he spent before he started riding and we'll get $16. Subtract 16 from 80 which is 64. $64 dollars divided by $1.25 would be 51.2. We round down because he can't ride more then 50 rides. He would be able to ride 51 rides with the money he has. Let's say he rode 20 rides and then left the fair. We would subtract 20 from 51 and get 31. After that we would multiply 31 by 1.25 and get $38.75. So he would have $38.75 dollars after he left the fair.

What is an equation?

An equation is an expression that shows the relationship between two or more numbers and variables.

A mathematical equation is a statement with two equal sides and an equal sign in between. An equation is, for instance, 4 + 6 = 10. Both 4 + 6 and 10 can be seen on the left and right sides of the equal sign, respectively.

For age 'a', the special number was

 2a +4

Tammi's mother actually calculated it as;

 2(a +4) = 2a +8

Now a value that is (2a+8) -(2a+4) = 4 more than it was supposed to be.

The special number was supposed to be;

80 -4 = 76.

A holiday decoration involves blue and white lights.The ratio of blue lights to white lights is 3 to 2 . The box the decoration came in stated that the number of blue lights was 114 but didn't give the number of white lights or the total number of lights.

Answers

Answer:

a. 76 b. 190

Step-by-step explanation:

a. Number of white lights

Since the ratio of blue lights to white lights is 3 to 2 and the number of blue lights is 114, it follows that 3 : 2 = 114 : x where x is the number of white lights.

So, 3/2 = 114/x

cross-multiplying,

3x = 114 × 2

3x = 228

x = 228/3

x = 76

b. Total number of lights

So, the total number of lights is thus number of blue lights + number of white lights = 114 + 76 = 190

Hey there!

The answer to your question is z > -4

We can solve this like it is an equation, with one exception. When you divide or multiply by a negative number, in an inequality, you have to flip the inequality sign.

-2z - 3 < 5           add 3 to both sides

     -2z < 8          divide both sides by -2, and flip the inequality sign
