C.1/6

Step-by-step explanation:

Initially the box has four $1 and six $5 bills. The probability of selecting a $5 bill in the first trial would be given as;

(number of $5 bills) / (total number of bills)

= (6)/(4+6) = 3/5

If in the first attempt we actually pick a $5 bill, the number of $5 bills will reduce by one to 5. Now, the probability of picking a $5 bill in the second attempt will be given as;

(new number of $5 bills) / (new total number of bills)

= (5)/(4+5) = 5/9

The new number of $5 bills will now be; 6 - 2 = 4 since we have already picked 2 without replacing them.

Now, the probability of picking a $5 bill in the third attempt will be given as;

(new number of $5 bills) / (new total number of bills)

= (4)/(4+4) = 1/2

Since the three attempts are independent, the probability of picking all three $5 bills is;

3/5 * 5/9 * 1/2 = 1/6

Answer from: Quest

the system of inequity is

$y\leq -x+4$

$3y> x$

step-by-step explanation:

from the given graph it is noticed that we have two related lines. one is solid and another is dashed.

if a line passing through two points, then the equation of line is

$y-y_1=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}(x-x_1)$

the solid line passing through the points (0,4) and (4,0).

$y-4=\frac{0-4}{4-0}(x-0)$

$y=-x+4$

the related equation of solid line is $y=-x+4$ .

similarly, find the related equation of dashed line. the dashed liune passing through the points (0,0) and (3,1).

$y-0=\frac{0-1}{3-0}(x-0)$

$3y=x$

the related equation of dashed line is $3y=x$

from the given graph it is noticed that the point (0,1) lies on the shaded region, therefore the point (0,1) must be satisfied by the related equations.

check the related equations by the point (0,1).

$1=-0+4$

$1=4$

this statement is true if the sign of inequality is < instead of equality. since it is an solid line therefore the sign of inequality will be $\leq$ . the required inequality is

$y\leq -x+4$

similarly, check the second related equation.

$3(1)=0$

it is a dashed line, so this statement is true if the sign of inequality is > . the required inequality is

$3y> x$

15 points write a system of inequalities to represent the shaded portion of the graph
