    nope, can't do it. i know it uses a rule to switch them all around and get rid of the log but i can't remember it. Does it go something like: (3x - 4) = 2^5 ?

    Okay: i) P(RG) = P(R) x P(G) = 34/100 X 65/100 = 221/1000 or 22.1% ii) P( at least 3 RG) = 1 - (P(none) + P(1RG) + P(2RG) = 1 - ((0.779)^5 + 5(22.1/100x77.9/100^4) + 10((22.1/100)^2 x (77.9/100)^3)) = 0.075320058 or 7.5% I'm pretty sure thats right, check it for me.

    Booyah! :) okay next question: A ball is dropped from a height of 2 metres onto a hard floor and bounces. After each bounce, the maximum height reached by the ball is 75% of the previous maximum height. Thus, after it first hits the floor, it reaches a height of 1.5 metres before falling...

    Geeze you get around boxhunter91 hahah every thread I read you've posted on hahah. Okay to your question: a) P(RRR) = P(R) x P(R) X P(R) = 1/3 X 99/299 X 98/298 = 1617/44551 = about 3.6% b) P(Not red) = 1 - P(RRR) = 42934/44551 = about 96.4% c) P(RBG) = P(RBG) + P(BGR) + (RGB) + P(BRG) +...

    Okay time for a new question: If a sector har an arc length of 3pi and a radius of 4units, a) what is the angle (exact) and b) calculate the area of the sector.
