Answer:
a) 0.88
b) 0.35
c) 0.0144
d) 0.2084
e) 0.7916
Step-by-step explanation:
a) The probability of a peanut being brown is 12/100 = 0.12. Hence the probability of it not being brown is 1-0.12 = 0.88
b) 12% of peanuts are brown, 23% are blue. So 35% are either blue or brown. The probability of a peanut being blue or brown is, therefore 35/100 = 0.35.
c) 12% of peanuts are red, so the probability of a peanut being red is 12/100 = 0.12. In order to calculate the probability of 2 peanuts being both red, we can assume that the proportion doesnt change dramatically after removing one peanut (because the number of peanuts is absurdly high. We can assume that we are replenishing the peanuts). To calculate the probability of 2 peanuts being both red, we need to power 0.12 by 2, hence the probability is 0.12² = 0.0144.
d) Again, we will assume that the probability doesnt change, because we replenish. The probability of a peanut being blue is 0.23. The probability of it not being blue is 0.77, so the probability of 6 peanuts not being blue is obtained from powering 0.77 by 6, hence it is 0.77⁶ = 0.2084
e) The event 'at least one peanut is blue' is te complementary event of 'none peanuts are blue', so the probability of this event is 1- 0.2084 = 0.7916
Answer:
1/4 of the credit
Step-by-step explanation:
The problem statement tells you n=5. Putting that into the expression for lost credit, you get ...
1/(5-1) = 1/4
of the credit is lost for a question with 1 wrong answer.
You will lose 1/4 of the credit.

Answer: The answer is (b) a ≤ 3 + 2j; j ≥ 14, a ≤ 35.
Step-by-step explanation: Given that Anna is no more than 3 years older than 2 times Jamie’s age. Jamie is at least 14 and Anna is at most 35. We are to select the correct combination of inequalities among the given options.
Also, 'a' and 'j' are the possible ages of Anna and Jamie respectively. Therefore, according to the given information, we can write
Thus, the correct option is (b) a ≤ 3 + 2j; j ≥ 14, a ≤ 35.
