Q:

A box contains 2 blue balls, 3 green balls and 4 yellow balls. In how many ways can 3 balls be drawn from the box, if at least one green ball is to be included in the draw?

A) 48 B) 24
C) 64 D) 32
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: C) 64

Explanation:

Total number of balls = 2 + 3 + 4 = 9

Total number of ways 3 balls can be drawn from 9 = 9C3

No green ball is drawn = 9 - 3 = 6 = 6C3

Required number of ways if atleast one green ball is to be included = Total number of ways - No green ball is drawn

= 9C3 - 6C3

= 9x8x7/3x2  -  6x5x4/3x2

= 84 - 20

= 64 ways.

A) 237.55 B) 337
C) 443 D) 334
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: A) 237.55

Explanation:

Cash price = $3695

Deposit =1/3 of $3695 = $1231.67

Loan amount = $3695.00 − $1231.67 = $2463.33

Total cost of loan = $25.97 × 104= $2700.88

 

Interest charged = total amount − loan
I = A − P
= 2700.88 − 2463.33
= 237.55
