A bag contains 9 pennies , 8 nickels, and 5 dimes. How many quarters should be added to the bag so the probability of drawing a dime is 1/6?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

A bag contains 9 pennies, 8 nickels and 5 dimes: 22 coins total

5/30 = 1/6

22 + 8 = 30

 8 quarters would give the needed 30 coin total

P(dime) = 5/30 = 1/6

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer 2

No quarters should be added to the bag so the probability of drawing a dime is 1/6

Let x be the number of quarters to be added to the bag.

The probability of drawing a dime can be found by dividing the number of dimes in the bag by the total number of coins in the bag after adding x quarters.

The total number of coins in the bag before adding any quarters is:

9 pennies + 8 nickels + 5 dimes = 22 coins

After adding x quarters, the total number of coins in the bag becomes:

9 pennies + 8 nickels + 5 dimes + x quarters = 22 + x coins

The probability of drawing a dime is given as 1/6.

So, we can set up the equation:

5 / (22 + x) = 1/6

30 = 5(22 + x)

30 = 110 + 5x

-80 = 5x

x = -16

Since x represents the number of quarters to be added, it cannot be negative. Therefore, it is not possible to add any quarters to the bag so that the probability of drawing a dime is 1/6.

Hence, the answer is zero quarters.

Choose 2 apples to eat from a bowl containing 6 apples, 8 oranges, and 4 bananas.

Answers

Answer:

240/990 = 8/33.

Step-by-step explanation:

Arbitrarily, the chances of this outcome, by picking an apple first, then an orange, then a banana, is:

5/11 × 4/10 × 2/9= 40/990

But we don't care about the order and in reality, there are six orders that would achieve our outcome:

Apple, orange, banana

Apple, banana, orange

Orange, Apple, banana

Orange, banana, Apple

Banana, Apple, orange

Banana, orange, Apple

The probability of each these outcomes is the same as computed above (Just exchanging numerators.) So the answer is 6×(40/990)

The answer is 8/33 since you do 6/20 times 6/20 which is 36/400 which simplifies to 8/33

Peter made a square pin for his pet guinea pig to roam in. One side was 18.2 cm. What is the area of the pin?
A. 331.24 cm
B. 321.24 cm
C. 74.8 cm
D. 72.8 cm

Answers

Hi!

Answer:

A) 331.24

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the area, you need to multiply LxW, (Length x Width) and in this case, since it's a square, the sides are equal. Each side is 18.2 cm, so all we have to do is multiply 18.2 by 18.2, and then we get 331.24, so your answer is option A.

I hope this helps! :)

It’s A since 18.2*18.2=331.24

1. The table below shows the total fat in grams and total calories for various fast food items. Does this

data suggest that there is an association between the fat grams and total calories in fast food

items? Support your answer.

Sandwich Total fat (g) Total Calories

Hamburger 9 260

Cheeseburger 13 320

Quarter Pounder 21 420

Crispy Chicken 25 500

Fish Fillet 28 560

Grilled Chicken 20 440

Grilled Chicken Light 5 300

Sample Answers: The food items with more fat tend to have more calories, so it seems

reasonable that there is a positive association. Larger values of total fat tend to go with larger

values of total calories.

2. A scatter plot can be used to visualize the association between fat and calories. Think about how

the variables are related, and how the variables fat and calories should be placed on the

coordinate axes. Label the axes on the graph below, and explain your choice of axes and

variables.

Answer: Since the amount of fat in fast food affects the

total calories, the variable fat is the independent

variable. This variable is best to plot along the horizontal

axis. The variable calories is the dependent variable

and is, therefore, best to plot along the vertical axis.

Teacher Tip: Discuss with the students why fat is the independent variable

and calories is the dependent variable in this situation. Ask them whether

the amount of fat depends on how many calories are in the food, or the

amount of calories depend on how much fat is in the food.
