Answer:

0.2239

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that you have two hats. In one hat are balls numbered 1 through 15. In the other hat are balls numbered 16 through 25. I first choose a hat, then from that hat, I choose 3 balls, without replacing the balls between selections.

Either I or II hat can be selected.

Prob of selecting any one hat = 0.5

After selecting I hat, selecting 3 balls can be done in 15C3 ways and from II hat it can be done in 10C3 ways.

total no of ways of selecting 3 balls = (10+15)C3 = 2300

Probability required =\frac{0.5*15C3+0.5*10C3}{2300} \\=\frac{455+60}{2300} \\=0.2239

Answer:

3450 ways

Step-by-step explanation:

Different ways of picking 3 balls from the 1st hat:

1st ball: 15 choices (because there are 15 balls)

2nd ball: 14 choices (because one ball is taken away)

3rd ball: 13 choices (because two ball is taken away)

15*14*13=2730 different possible orders of picking 3 balls from the 1st hat

Different ways of picking 3 balls from the 2nd hat:

1st ball: 10 possibilities (because there are 10 balls)

2nd ball: 9 possibilities

3rd ball: 8 possibilities

10*9*8=720 different possible orders of picking 3 balls from the 2nd hat

720+2730=3450

Sam is packing gift boxes with fruit. For each apple he packs 3 plums and 5 oranges. If he puts 3 apples in a box, how many plum
Musya8 [376]
You can make an equation.

Let x=oranges
p=plums
n=apples

n= 3p + 5x

So basically we know 1 Apple means Sam will pack 3 plums and 5 oranges

To get 3n which means 3 apples we have to multiply the whole equation by 3


(n= 3p + 5x) x3


3n=9p+15x

So Sam will also put 9 plums and 15 oranges if he puts 3 apples in the box

11) The Cost of maintaing a
dezoksy [38]

Answer:

a). Cost of 44 pupils = $14265

b). Least number of pupils = 31

Step-by-step explanation:

The given question is incomplete; here is the complete question.

The cost of maintaining a school is partly constant and partly varies as the number of pupils. With 50 pupils, the cost is $15,705.00 and with 40 pupils, it is $13,305.00.

(a) Find the cost when there are 44 pupils.

(b) If the fee per pupil is $360.00, what is the least number of pupils for which the school can run without a loss?

Let the equation representing the total cost of maintaining a school is,

C = ax + b

Where C = Total cost of maintaining a school

a = Fee per pupil

b = Fixed running cost

x = number of pupils

a). Cost of 50 pupils = $15705

    Equation will be,

    15705 = 50a + b -------(1)

    Cost of 40 pupils = $13305

    Equation will be,

    13305 = 40a + b --------(2)

    By subtracting equation (2) from equation (1),

    15705 - 13305 = (50a + b) - (40a + b)

    2400 = 10a

    a = 240

    From equation (1),

    b = 3705

    Equation representing the total cost will be,

    C = 240x + 3705

    If x = 44

    C = 240(44) + 3705

    C = $14265

b). If the fee per pupil 'a' = $360

    Let the number of pupils = p

    Total fee of 'p' pupils = $360p

    Total cost to run the school will be = 3705 + 240p

    For the school not to be in the loss,

    360p ≥ 3705 + 240p

    360p - 240p ≥ 3705

    120p ≥ 3705

    p ≥ \frac{3705}{120}

    p ≥ 30.875

    Therefore, to run the school without loss, number pupils should be at least 31.

You work delivering food for a local farmer. You sell onions from the farm at these prices: 2 for $1.04, 4 for $2.52, 8 for $4.3
kenny6666 [7]

Answer:

D.  9%

Step-by-step explanation:

1.04 / 2 = 0.52

2.52 / 4 = 0.63    best 1

4.32 / 8 = 0.54

9.12 / 16 = 0.57    best 2

if base on the best deal 1 - 0.63

(0.63 - 0.57) / 0.63 = 0.0952  (≈ 0.09 i.e 9%)

The graph represents the function where electricity usage in kilowatts per hour of a clock radio varies directly with the number
geniusboy [140]

Answer:

Reasonable estimation for constant of variation is 0.25 kWh per day.    

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following information in the question:

  • The graph represents the function where electricity usage.
  • Electricity usage in kilowatts per hour of a clock radio varies directly with the number of days.
  • The x-axis shows the number of days and usage in kilo-watt per hour is showed on the y-axis.
  • Some coordinates of the graph are: (0,0), (2,0.5) and (6,1.5)

Formula for constant of variation:

\displaystyle\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}

Putting the values from the coordinates (2,0.5) and (6,1.5), we get:

\displaystyle\frac{1.5-0.5}{6-2} = \frac{1}{4} = 0.25\text{ kilowatt-hours per day}

Hence, reasonable estimation for constant of variation is 0.25 kWh per day.
