You flip a coin that is not fair, the prbability of heads on each flip is 0.7. if the coin shows heads, you draw a marble from urn h with 1 blue and 4 red marbles. if the coin shows tails, you draw a marble from urn t with 3 blue and 1 red marble. Find the following probabilities:

a. The probability of choosing a red marble.
b. The probability of choosing a blue marble, given that the coin showed heads.
c. The probability that the coin showed tails, given that the marble was red.

Answers

Answer 1

Solution :

P(H) = 0.7  ;  P(T) = 0.3

If heads, then Urn H,  1 blue and 4 red marbles.

If tails, then Urn T ,  3 blue and 1 red marbles.

a).

P ( choosing a Red marble )

= P (H) x P( Red from Urn H) + P (T) x P( Red from Urn T)

[tex]$=0.7 \times \frac{4}{5} + 0.3 \times \frac{1}{4}$[/tex]

= 0.56 + 0.075

= 0.635

b).  If P (B, if coin showed heads)

If heads, then marble is picked from Urn H.

Therefore,

P (Blue) [tex]$=\frac{1}{5}$[/tex]

             = 0.2

c). P (Tails, if marble was red)

[tex]$=P (T/R) = \frac{P(R/T)}{P(R)} \ P(T)$[/tex]

Where P (R/T) = P ( red, if coin showed tails)

                        [tex]$=\frac{1}{4}$[/tex]

                        = 0.25 (As Urn T is chosen)

P (R) =  P (Red) = 0.635 (from part (a) )

P (T) = P (Tails) = 0.3

∴ [tex]$P(T/R) = \frac{0.25 \times 0.3}{0.635}$[/tex]

                = 0.118

Bob purchased 2 hot dogs and 1 hamburger for S10. Later that day, Bob had to purchase more food and
Bot 1 hot dog and 3 hamburgers for S15. What were the prices of the hamburger and hot dogs?

Answers

Answer:

Hotdog: $3.00

Hamburger: $4.00

Step-by-step explanation:

For the first time that Bob buys food, we can make an equation to find how much a single hotdog and a single hamburger costs, where:

x = cost of a hotdog

y = cost of a hamburger

He bought 2 hotdogs and 1 hamburger for $10, so the equation for his first time buying food is:

2x + y = 10

For the second time buying food, he bought 1 hotdog and 3 hamburgers for $15, so his equation would be:

x + 3y = 15

To find the value for x and y we need to solve this system of equations using the two equations we just came up with. We can do this multiple ways, but I'll be demonstrating the substitution method.

Using the second equation, we can solve for x by simply subtracting 3y from both sides:

x = 15 - 3y

We can then insert this value of x into the first equation so that way we are only dealing with one variable to solve - y:

2(15-3y) + y = 10

Distribute out the 2 into the paratheses, combine like terms, and then solve for y:

30 - 6y + y = 10

30 - 5y = 10

-5y = -20

y = 4

This means the cost for one hamburger is $4. But we still need to find the price of one hotdog, so we can insert this value of y into the equation we came up with earlier for x, and then solve for x:

x = 15 - 3y

x = 15 - 3(4)

x = 15 - 12

x = 3

So the price of one hotdog is $3 and the price of one hamburger is $4. Hope this helps.

When Damian runs the 400 meter dash, his finishing times are normally distributed
with a mean of 60 seconds and a standard deviation of 1 second. Using the empirical
rule, determine the interval of times that represents the middle 99.7% of his finishing
times in the 400 meter race.

Answers

The middle 99.7% is within 60 seconds to 63 seconds.

The empirical rule states that for a normal distribution, 68% are within one standard deviation from the mean, 95% are within two standard deviations from the mean and 99.7% are within three standard deviations from the mean.

Given that:

mean (μ) = 60 seconds, standard deviation (σ) = 1 second

99.7% are within three standard deviations = μ ± 3σ = 60 ± 3(1) = (57, 63)

The middle 99.7% is within 60 seconds to 63 seconds.

The linear equation for this scenario is L = -20t + 140. Layla owes her friend $140 and pays the friend $20 per week.

What is an equation?

An equation consists of numbers and variables linked together by mathematical operations to form an expression.

A linear equation is in the form:

y = mx + b

Where m is the rate of change and b is the initial value

Let L represent the amount Layla owes her friend after t weeks.

Using the point from the graph (0, 140) and (7, 0):

L - 140 = [(0 - 140)/(7 - 0)](t - 0)

L - 140 = -20t

L = -20t + 140

A Car’s rectangular gas tank has dimensions 30 cm by 25 cm by 42 cm.
(a) Calculate the capacity in liters, of the tank.
(b) If gasoline cost $154 per liter, what is the cost of filling the tank?

Answers

Answer:

$4851

Step-by-step explanation:

rectangular prism volume = length x width x height

1 litre = 1000 cm³

cost = $per litre x litres

v = l x w x h

30cm x 25cm x 42cm = 31500cm³

litres = cm³ / 1000

31500cm³ / 1000 = 31.5 litres

31.5 x $154 = $4851

If you live 1.5 miles from school and you walk at a rate of 3mph, when should you leave home in order to arrive at school by 9:00?

Answers

Answer is  8:30

Work Shown:

time = distance/speed

time = (1.5 miles)/(3 mph)

time = (1.5/3) hours

time = 0.5 hours

time = 30 minutes

It takes 30 minutes to walk to school, so you should leave a half hour before 9:00. Subtracting 30 minutes from 9:00 gets you to 8:30. If anything, you should start a little bit before 8:30 just in case something might slow you down for one reason or another.

From a hot-air balloon, Grayson measures a 29^{\circ} ∘ angle of depression to a landmark that’s 1004 feet away, measuring horizontally. What’s the balloon’s vertical distance above the ground? Round your answer to the nearest hundredth of a foot if necessary.

Answers

The balloon’s vertical distance above the ground is 556 feet

The set up will form a right triangle.

Given the following parameters

Angle of depression = 29 degreesHorizontal distance = 1004 feet

To get the height above the ground, we will use the SOH CAH TOA identity as shown;

Opposite = h

Adjacent = 1004 feet

Tan theta = h/1004

Tan 29 = h/1004

h = 1004 tan 29

h = 1004(0.5543)

h = 556.52 feet

Hence the balloon’s vertical distance above the ground is 556 feet
