Senior-secondary mathematics task 5: A bag contains 3 red and 4 blue balls. One ball is drawn at random. What is P(red)?
Choose an option to check your answer.
There are 3 favourable outcomes out of 7 equally likely outcomes, so P(red)=3/7.

There are 3 favourable outcomes out of 7 equally likely outcomes, so P(red)=3/7.
The coordinate differences are 3 and 4, so the distance is √(3²+4²)=5.
f′(x)=6x²+6x. Substituting x=2 gives 36.
An antiderivative is 2/2 x²+2x. At x=3, the value is 15.0.
Subtract 4 from both sides and divide by 3: x = (10-4)/3 = 2.
By Vieta’s formula, the sum of the roots equals the coefficient 8.

Use a² + b² = (a + b)² - 2ab.
Thus, 144 - 70 = 74.

The increase is 210 - 120 = 90 units.
The percentage increase is 90/120 × 100 = 75%.
