You roll a standard number cube once. Find P (0).

OpenStudy (anonymous):

A. 7/6 B. 1 C. 1/2 D. 0

OpenStudy (anonymous):

So, is P the probability of it landing on 0?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

If so, 0 is not on a standard die.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I think so but I am not sure

hartnn (hartnn):

do you find a 0 on a standard dice?

hartnn (hartnn):

number cube*

OpenStudy (anonymous):

no

OpenStudy (anonymous):

What are your chances of rolling 0 if it isn't on there?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

oh yay it is d 0

hartnn (hartnn):

\(\huge \color{green} \checkmark \)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

hartnn can you help me with a few more plz

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Sure

OpenStudy (anonymous):

From a barrel of colored marbles, you randomly select 7 blue, 5 yellow, 8 red, 4 green, and 6 purple marbles. 3. Find the experimental probability of randomly selecting a marble that is not yellow. Write your answer in simplest form

hartnn (hartnn):

sure, Can you ask new question in a new post? So that others can help you too if they want :)

hartnn (hartnn):

lets take that one in this post only :)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok

hartnn (hartnn):

how many total marbles are there?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

30

OpenStudy (anonymous):

How many aren't yellow?

hartnn (hartnn):

out of that 30, how many are yellow and how many are not?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

5 are yellow and 25 are not yellow

OpenStudy (anonymous):

So, the probability of picking a marble that isn't yellow is __ out of 30

OpenStudy (anonymous):

5/30

OpenStudy (anonymous):

No, that's the chance of picking a yellow.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

5 yellows out of 30

hartnn (hartnn):

Probability = favorable number of events/ total number of events For probability of not selecting a yellow, favourable event is picking some other marble =25 so that will be your numerator

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Read the question closely, it tells you that they need to know how many are NOT yellow.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

A. 1/30 B. 5/6 C. 2/15 D. 1/6

OpenStudy (anonymous):

we have to wright the answer in simplest form

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Ah, then you need to divide the numerator and denominator until they become the smallest and simplest.

hartnn (hartnn):

first get the probability numerator = 25, denominator = total = 30 25/30 now try to reduce this. 25 and 30 can be divided by which smallest natural number?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

5

hartnn (hartnn):

then divide both of them by 5 and tell me what you get?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

5/6

OpenStudy (anonymous):

There you go!

hartnn (hartnn):

\(\Huge \checkmark \)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so the answer is b 5/6

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Yup

OpenStudy (anonymous):

thanks soooooooooooooooo much

OpenStudy (anonymous):

No problem

hartnn (hartnn):

welcome sooooooooooooo much :D

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Find the experimental probability of randomly selecting a marble that is either green or purple. Write your answer in simplest form

hartnn (hartnn):

can you please close this question and ask that in a new post?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok wait

hartnn (hartnn):
