There are 10 10 balls total of which 2 2 balls are purple. ​Leslie picks a ball at random, puts it back and picks a second ball at random. ​Find the probability of first picking a purple ball and then again a purple ball on the second draw.

1/25

Step-by-step explanation:

Number of balls = 10

Number of purple balls = 2

Since it's probability with replacement,

Probability of picking a purple ball the first time = 2/10 = 1/5

Probability of picking a purple ball the second time = 2/10 = 1/5

Therefore, the probability of picking a purple ball both times will be:

= 1/5 × 1/5

= 1/25

-3

step-by-step explanation:

a drawing really does here:

so i draw the horizontal line y=2 and the vertical line x=-2 at this intersection i put b (this is where my right angle is going to be).   so point b is at (-2,2).   point a is 5 units long and is also on y=2 so this point has to be (3,2) or (-7,2) -doesn't matter i will go with (3,2).

now we know c is at (-2,y) we don't know the y yet bet we know that c is on x=-2.

we have the area of the triangle is .5bh=12.5

we know the base length is 5 (ab)

we have the height is (2-y) if you look at your

plug in

.5(5)(2-y)=12.5

solve for y to get the y-coordinate for c

2.5(2-y)=12.5

divide both sides by 2.5 giving:

2-y=5

now subtract 2 on both sides

-y=3

y=-3

step-by-step explanation:

to find if any function is an inverse of the other, put the first equation in as x in the next one. then simplify and solve. if at the end you get the statement y = x, then it is an inverse. if you get anything else, it is not.
