According to Masterfoods, the company that manufactures M&M's, 12% of peanut M&M's are brown, 15% are yellow, 12% are red, 23% are blue, 23% are orange and 15% are green. You randomly select peanut M&M's from an extra-large bag looking for a green candy.

The questions asked are

If you randomly select 4 peanuts

1. Compute the probability that exactly three of the four M&M’s are brown

2. Compute the probability that two or three of the four M&M’s are brown.

3. Compute the probability that at most three of the four M&M’s are brown.

4. Compute the probability that at least three of the four M&M’s are brown.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the following information

Brown=12%. P(B)=0.12

Yellow=15%. P(Y)=0.15

Red=12%. P(R), =0.12

Blue=23%. P(B) =0.23

Orange, =23%. P(O) =0.23

Green=15%. P(G)=0.15

Question 1.

They are independent events

If there are exactly three brown and the last is not brown

P(B n B n B n B')

P(B)×P(B)×P(B)×P(B')

0.12×0.12×0.12×(1-P(B))

0.001728×(1-0.12)

0.001728×0.88

0.00152.

0.152%

2. If two or three are brown

I.e we are going to two brown and two none brown or three brown and one not brown. (P(B)×P(B)×P(B')×P(B'))+ (P(B)×P(B)×P(B'))

(0.12×0.12×0.88×0.88)+(0.12×0.12×0.12×0.88)

0.0112+0.00152

0.0127

1.27%

3. At most three brown out of four then we are going to have

', BBB'B', BB'B'B', B'B'B'B'

These are the cases of at most three brown.

P(B)×P(B)×P(B)×P(B') + P(B)×P(B)×P(B')×P(B') + P(B)×P(B')×P(B')×PB')+ P(B')×P(B')×P(B')×P(B')=

0.12×0.12×0.12×0.88+ 0.12×0.12×0.88×0.88+ 0.12×0.88×0.88×0.88+ 0.88×0.88×0.88×0.88=0.694

0.694

69.4%

4. At least 3 brown out of four selection

I.e ',

These are the two options

P(B)×P(B)×P(B)×P(B') + P(B)×P(B)×P(B)×P(B)=

0.12×0.12×0.12×0.88 + 0.12×0.12×0.12×0.12

0.001728

0.173%

the equation cos(35) =a/25 can be used to find the length of bc what is the length of bc? round to the nearest tenth

step-by-step explanation:

"it's not the heat, it's the humidity".   that's a partly valid phrase you may have heard in the summer, but it's actually both.   the heat index, also known as the apparent temperature, is what the temperature feels like to the human body when relative humidity is combined with the air temperature.   this has important considerations for the human body's comfort.   when the body gets too hot, it begins to perspire or sweat to cool itself off.   if the perspiration is not able to evaporate, the body cannot regulate its temperature.   evaporation is a cooling process.   when perspiration is evaporated off the body, it effectively reduces the body's temperature.   when the atmospheric moisture content (i.e. relative humidity) is high, the rate of perspiration from the body decreases.   in other words, the human body feels warmer in humid conditions.   the opposite is true when the relative humidity decreases because the rate of perspiration increases.   the body actually feels cooler in arid conditions.   there is direct relationship between the air temperature and relative humidity and the heat index, meaning as the air temperature and relative humidity increase (decrease), the heat index increases (decreases).
