Answer:
The probability that they are both male is 0.424 (3 d.p.)
Step-by-step explanation:
The first step is to find the probability of the first selection being male. This is calculated as number of male mice divided by total number of mice in the litter
Prob (1st male) = 8 ÷ 12 = 0.667
Next is to find the probability of the second selection also being male. Note that the question states that the first mice was selected without replacement. This means the first mouse taken results in a reduction in both the number of male mice and total number of mice in the litter.
Prob (2nd male) = (8 - 1) ÷ (12 - 1) = 7/11 = 0.636
Therefore,
Prob (1st male & 2nd male) = 0.667 × 0.636 = 0.424
Let number of yellow marbles = x
Let number of red marbles = y
Let number of blue marbles = z
Given that Finley has 152 yellow, red, and blue marbles in a bag.
So we get equation:
x+y+z=152...(i)
"He has seven more red marbles than yellow marbles" means:
y=x+7...(ii)
"three times as many blue marbles as yellow marbles." means:
z=3x...(iii)
Now we just need to solve those equations to find the answer.
Plug (ii) and (iii) into (i)
x+(x+7)+(3x)=152
x+x+7+3x=152
Which looks similar to choice (B)
5x+7=152
5x=145
x=29
Hence final answer is choice B.
Required equation is
x+x+7+3x=152
Number of yellow marbles = 29
The better deal is the Full Warranty, by approximately 174 dollars. To solve the cost of the full warranty, simply multiply 30 percent times the cost of the washer/dryer.30 x 1,179 = 353.70. You do not need to add anything to this because the warranty covers the extra costs. To solve for the cost of the limited warranty, multiply 14 percent times the cost of the washer/dryer, plus the cost of the new parts and the repair center costs (the warranty only covers the labor repair costs): (.14 x 1,179) + 211 + 152 --> 165.06 + 211 + 152 = 528.06. The full warranty is clearly cheaper. To figure out by how much, simply subtract the full warranty from the limited warranty: 528.06 - 353.70 = 174.36. To round to the nearest number, take off the decimal: 174. So that means your answer is D hope this helps.
