A box has candies in it: are taffy, are peppermint, and are caramel. (Each candy falls into only one of these categories.) Brian wants to select two candies to eat for dessert. The first candy will be selected at random, and then the second candy will be selected at random from the remaining candies. What is the probability that the first candy selected is taffy and the second candy is caramel?
Do not round your intermediate computations. Round your final answer to three decimal places.

Answers

Answer 1

Probability that the first candy selected is taffy and the second candy is caramel is 0.144.

The data missing in the question is

A box has 18 candies in it: 3 are peppermint, 4 are caramel, and 11 are taffy.

What is Probability ?

Probability can be defined as the study of likelihood of an event to happen.

It has a range of 0 to 1.

Probability is the ratio of the expected outcomes / total coutcome.

Total outcomes = 18

The probability that the first candy is taffy is 11/18

Now as there is no replacement , the total outcomes can be 17

The probability that the second candy is caramel is 4/17

Probability that the first candy selected is taffy and the second candy is caramel =  (11/18)(4/17)

= 0.144

Therefore the Probability is 0.144

A moving company is hired to take 578 clay pots to a florist shop. The florist will pay the moving company a $200 fee, plus $4 for every pot that is delivered safely. The moving company must pay the florist $5 each for any pots that are lost or broken. If 6 pots are lost, 12 pots are broken, and the rest are delivered safely, how much should the moving company be paid?

Answers

Answer:

$596

Step-by-step explanation:

So, firstly, let's take all the essential info and put it in bullet points:

$200 moving fee$4 for every pot delivered safley$5 each per pot that is lost/broken

Next, what do we know about what's happened to the pots?

6 pots are lost12 pots are broken578 pots are supposed to be delivered

Now, we know that there is a moving fee that we will definitely have to pay, no matter what. Let's add that to the side-

200

Now we need to cover broken/lost pots. We can add up 6+12, because it is the exact cost for lost and broken pots. 6+12=18, and now we have to multiply that by 5. 18*5=90.

So, we can subtract that from the total payment.

200-18=182

Lastly, we need to add the total price for all the adequately delivered pots that arrived safely. There are 578 pots, and because 18 were damaged, we need to add that to 578:

578+18=596

So, the total amount you would be paying is $596.

Answers

Answer:

  1584

Step-by-step explanation:

The sum of this sequence can be found a number of ways. One way is to recast it as the series whose terms are groups of three terms of the given series.

__

series of partial sums

The partial sums, taken 3 terms at a time, are

  1+2-3 = 0

  4+5-6 = 3

  7+8-9 = 6

...

  97+98-99 = 96

So the original series is equivalent to ...

  0 +3 +6 +... +96 = 3×1 +3×2 +... +3×32 = 3×(1 +2 +... +32)

That is, the sum is 3 times the sum of the consecutive integers 1..32.

__

consecutive integers

The sum of integers 1..n is given by the equation ...

  s(n) = n(n+1)/2

__

series sum

Using this to find the sum of our series, we find it to be ...

  series sum = 3 × (32)(33)/2 = 1584

_____

Alternate solution

The given series is the sum of integers 1-99, with 6 times the sum of integers 1-33 subtracted. That is, ...

  1 + 2 - 3 + 4 + 5 - 6 = 1+2+3+4+5+6 -2(3 +6) = 1+2+3+4+5+6 -6(1+2)

Continuing on to ...97 +98 -99 gives the result s(99) -6s(33).

Computed that way, we find the sum to be ...

  (99)(100)/2 -6(33)(34)/2 = 4950 -3366 = 1584

Cheng likes a modern lawn sculpture made of four identical solid right pyramids with square bases. He decides to create an exact copy of the sculpture, so he needs to know what volume of sculpting material to purchase.

2 identical solid right pyramids with square bases are connected at the square base. Another 2 are connected in the same way and are stacked on top of the other 2 pyramids. The length of the base edge is 2 feet and the height of the whole structure is 6 feet.

He measures each edge of each base to be 2 feet. The height of the whole sculpture is 6 feet.

Answers

Volume is a three-dimensional scalar quantity. The amount of sculpting material needed is 8 ft³.

What is volume?

A volume is a scalar number that expresses the amount of three-dimensional space enclosed by a closed surface.

Since the pyramid is stacked one over the other, the total height of the sculpture is the sum of the four pyramid heights, therefore, the height of each pyramid is 1.5 ft.

The volume of the complete sculpture = 4(Volume of a single pyramid)

                                                                 = 4[(1/3) × (2 ft)² × 1.5 ft]

                                                                 = 4(2 ft³)

                                                                 = 8 ft³

Hence, the amount of sculpting material needed is 8 ft³.

he life of light bulbs is distributed normally. The variance of the lifetime is 625 and the mean lifetime of a bulb is 540 hours. Find the probability of a bulb lasting for at most 569 hours. Round your answer to four decimal places.

Answers

Using the normal distribution, it is found that there is a 0.877 = 87.7% probability of a bulb lasting for at most 569 hours.

Normal Probability Distribution

The z-score of a measure X of a normally distributed variable with mean [tex]\mu[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]\sigma[/tex] is given by:

[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]

The z-score measures how many standard deviations the measure is above or below the mean. Looking at the z-score table, the p-value associated with this z-score is found, which is the percentile of X.

The mean and the standard deviation are given, respectively, by:

[tex]\mu = 540, \sigma = \sqrt{625} = 25[/tex]

The probability of a bulb lasting for at most 569 hours is the p-value of Z when X = 569, hence:

[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]

[tex]Z = \frac{569 - 540}{25}[/tex]

Z = 1.16

Z = 1.16 has a p-value of 0.877.

0.877 = 87.7% probability of a bulb lasting for at most 569 hours.

Using the Central Limit Theorem, we have that:

a) Yes, it can be used, as np > 10 and n(1 - p) > 10.

b) There is a 0.0475 = 4.75% probability that the proportion in the random sample of 100 orders is the same as the proportion found in the audit sample or less.

Normal Probability Distribution

The z-score of a measure X of a normally distributed variable with mean [tex]\mu[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]\sigma[/tex] is given by:

[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]

The z-score measures how many standard deviations the measure is above or below the mean. Looking at the z-score table, the p-value associated with this z-score is found, which is the percentile of X.By the Central Limit Theorem, for a proportion p in a sample of size n, the sampling distribution of sample proportion is approximately normal with mean [tex]\mu = p[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]s = \sqrt{\frac{p(1 - p)}{n}}[/tex], as long as [tex]np \geq 10[/tex] and [tex]n(1 - p) \geq 10[/tex].

For the sample, we have that:

np = 85 > 10.n(1 - p) = 15 > 10.

Hence the normal approximation can be used.

As for part B, if we have p = 0.9 and n = 100, the mean and the standard error are given by:

[tex]\mu = p = 0.9[/tex].[tex]s = \sqrt{\frac{p(1 - p)}{n}} = \sqrt{\frac{0.9(0.1)}{100}} = 0.03[/tex]

The probability of a sample proportion of 85% of less is the p-value of Z when X = 0.85, hence:

[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]

By the Central Limit Theorem

[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{s}[/tex]

[tex]Z = \frac{0.85 - 0.9}{0.03}[/tex]

Z = -1.67

Z = -1.67 has a p-value of 0.0475.

There is a 0.0475 = 4.75% probability that the proportion in the random sample of 100 orders is the same as the proportion found in the audit sample or less.

46 and over                              0.47

Based on the frequency table for the bar graph, we can logically deduce that more 36 to 45-year-olds with a frequency of "0.45" listen to audiobooks than 26 to 35-year-olds with a frequency of "0.23."
