Bag contains 15 marbles numbered from 1 to 15. two marbles are selected from the bag at the same time. let event e = the two numbers do not differ by 10 how many outcomes are in the complement of e? a) 5 b) 10 c) 25 d) 200

The numbers DO differ by 10 if they are

- 1 and 11
- 2 and 12
- 3 and 13
- 4 and 14
- 5 and 15

Each outcome technically has two ways of occurring, but since we're taking two marbles at a time, that would be the same as saying, for instance, that drawing 1 and 11 is the same as drawing 11 and 1. We only count such an event once.

So the answer is (a) 5.

i think there was a typo. you wrote pat brings 3 quarts of ice-cream to the party. each serving of ice-cream is 1 6 quart. how many total servings of ice-cream does pat bring to the party? i think the bold is supposed to be 1/6. so 1 quart of ice cream = 6 servings. 6 * 3 = 18.

the answer is 18.
