12 yellow balls and 14 red balls are placed in an urn. two balls are then drawn in succession without replacement. what is the probability that the first ball drawn is a red ball if the second ball drawn is yellow?

Probability that the first ball drawn is a red ball if the second ball drawn is yellow = 7/13

Number of yellow balls, N(Y) = 12

Number of red balls, N(R) = 14

Total number of balls, N(Total) = 12 + 14

N(Total) = 26

Probability of picking a yellow a ball

Pr(Y) = N(Y) / N(Total)

Pr(Y) = 12/26 = 6/13

Probability of picking a red ball

Pr(R) = N(R) / N(Total)

Pr(R) = 14/26 = 7/13

Probability of the two balls are red and yellow

Pr(RnY) = 6/13 x 7/13

Pr(RnY) = 42/169

Probability that the first ball drawn is a red ball if the second ball drawn is yellow

Pr(R|Y) = Pr(RnY)/P(Y)

Pr(R|Y) = 42/169 ÷ 6/13

Pr(R|Y) = 42/169 x 13/6

Pr(R|Y) = 7/13

Probability that the first ball drawn is a red ball if the second ball drawn is yellow = 7/13

12 + 14 = 26 balls total

 probability of picking a red one first = 14/26 reduces to 7/13

 then a yellow ball second would be 12/25

 probability of both happening = 7/13 x 12/25 = 84/325

walter needs to make at least 5 more cookies but no more than 40. 5 ≤ x ≤ 40

step-by-step explanation:

20 ≤ x + 15 ≤ 55

subtract 15 from all parts

20-15 ≤ x + 15-15 ≤ 55-15

5 ≤ x ≤ 40

this means how many more cookies he has to make

walter needs to make at least 5 more cookies, but no more than 40 cookies; 5 ≤ x ≤ 40

first, we define the variables:

x: number of years after 1950

f (x): amount of vinyl sold.

then, with the variables defined, we have:

68594 vinyl records were sold in 1958 > f (8) = 68594

91299 vinyl records were sold in 1961 > f (11) = 91299

38720 vinyl records were sold in 1952 > f (2) = 38720

161743 vinyl records were sold in 1967 > f (17) = 161743
