- 50 numbers in Lotto Max

- to win the first price, you must get 7 numbers right

 

1/50, 1/49, 1/48, 1/47, 1/46, 1/45, 1/44

(find the product of these fractions and you know that the chance of winning is very slim.

You will have a better chance to hit by lightning than to win the Lotto Max

 

 

- tell your parents or grandparents not to waste money to play the Lotto. The chance of winning is very small

 

Next lesson: Ontario Licence Plates

- how many Ontario Licence plates are there in this province?

 

Old plates till about 2018 (6 slots, white background with blue letters/numbers)

 

____, ____, ____,                     ____, ____, ____, 

Numbers only                          Letters only

(0 to 9, can repeat)                  (A to Z, can repeat)

 

e.g. 123 ABC     or 007 AAP (reusing 0 and A)             or 656 BBB 

 

To calculate how many old Ontario plates there are,

 

_10_, _10_, _10_,                    _26_, _26_, _26_,

 

(0,1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9) – ten numbers can fit in the first slot

There are 26 letters in the English alphabet

A license plate with blue and white text

Description automatically generated with low confidence

Total old plates: 10 x 10 x 10 x 26 x 26 x 26 = about 17.5 million

 

 

In 2018, Ontario ran out of licence plates (for cars, trucks, vans, SUV)

 

Think of five ways to deal with this problem

Ontario eliminating licence plate renewal fees and stickers - South Muskoka  Doppler

1)    Add an extra slot (put one more letter)

26 x 26 x 26 x 26 x 10 x 10 x 10 = 456.7 mil

 

2)    Ontario's New License Plates Have A Problem: You Can't Read Them : NPRPersonal plates, CAR4U or KWOK8

(8 in Chinese means wealth or money

Can be all letters

4 – in Chinese mean ‘die’

Kwok’s brother has a licence plate of 164

- extra $250 per year

 

3) Change the background colour to blue, white text

What is the significance of Ontario's red license plates? - Quora4) Background colour can be red 

(diplomats – officals working for another country)

 

5) Mix the letters and numbers

(each slot has a total combination of 26 + 10 = 36)

 

e.g. A3B5 C6F

Red Heart Free Stock Photo - Public Domain Pictures

6) Add symbols to the plates, e.g. I U

 

Some symbols cannot be used ! (look a lot like the letter I), #, ?, $ (S)

 

Your job is to find how many licence plates in Yukon, NWT, PEI, California

 Homework this weekend

a.     What is the probability of picking an “A” card and then an “10” card from a deck? 

(Black Jack)

-there is a condition, A first, then 10. We multiply the probability

 

A – 10

 

4 Aces/52 cards, 4/51 (51 cards left after one card is taken out)

 

4/52 x 4/51 = (4x4)/(52x51) = 16/2652 or 0.006 or 0.6%

 

 

b.    What is the probability of picking three “7” cards in a row from a deck?

7-7-7 (after a card is taken out, it will not be put back to the deck)

 

4/52 (four “7” cards in a deck), 3/51, 2/50 (only two “7” are left, with 50 cards)

 

4/52 x 3/51 x 2/50 = (4x3x2)/(52x51x50) = 24/132600 = 0.0001 or 0.01% (almost impossible)

 

4/52 to get one “7” card

 

c.     What is the probability of picking two red cards in a row from a deck?

26/52 (26 red cards) x 25/51 (25 red left, in a deck of 51 cards)

26/52 x 25/51 = (26 x 25)/(52 x 51) = 650/2653 = 0.24 or 24%

 

 

 

Let’s practice

 

g) When a card is removed from a deck, it will not be put back

 

What is the probability of getting three black cards in a row?

First black card 26/52

Second black card 25/51 (25 black cards left)

Third black card 24/50 (24 black cards left)

 

26/52 x 25/51 x 24/50 = (26x25x24)/(52 x 51 x 50) = 15600/132600 = 11%

 

 

h) When a card is removed from a deck, it will not be put back

 

What is the probability of getting a King, a Queen and a Jack in a row

 

King 4/52

Queen 4/51

Jack 4/50

 

4/52 x 4/51 x 4/50 = (4x4x4)/(52x51x50) = 64/132600

 

 

i) When a card is removed from a deck, it will not be put back

 

What is the probability of getting 7-7-7-7?

 

4/52 x 3/51 x 2/50 x 1/49 = (4x3x2x1)/(52x51x50x49) = 24/6497400 (impossible

 

 

Real life examples:

 

How to win the Lotto 649?

There are 49 numbers. To win the first price, must pick those six numbers correctly

 

_____, ______, _____, ______,_____, ______,

1/49      1/48,   1/47    1/46    1/45    1/44

 

Chance of winning the 649 is 

(1/49)x(1/48)x(1/47)x(1/46)x(1/45)x(1/44)

1/(49x48x47x46x45x44) = impossible, very small number

 

 

Figure the rules in Lotto Max, and determine the chance of winning the first price

Advantages of living walls and gardens on the roofs

- cool inside of buildings (concrete can heat up quickly during the summer months)

- more fresh air; need very little soil

- re-circulate water; may grow some fruits or vegetables on roof (tomatoes, pepper, beans)


Disadvantages

- bugs and unwanted insects

- odour of the soil; what may happen 

- may not work in the cold winter months or during rainy seasons

Probability in playing cards

 

a.     What is the probability of picking a red card from a deck? 26/52 or 0.50 or 50%

b.    What is the probability of picking a diamond from a deck? 13/52 or 0.25 or 25%

c.     What is the probability of picking a King from a deck? (4 kings) 4/52, 8%

d.    What is the probability of picking a black diamond card from a deck? 

0% - all diamonds are black

e.     What is the probability of picking an “8” card and then a “6” card from a deck?

Picking an “8” card = 4/52 = 0.077

Picking an “6” card = 4/52 = 0.077

 

These two conditions must occur together. Then we multiply the two probability together

0.077 x 0.077 = 0.0059 or 0.59% chance that this will happen

These letters (11) are cut out and placed inside a bag.

 

What is the probability of picking a vowel card?

Vowels = A, E, I, O, U

 

There are 11 letters, and 4 vowels. Probably to pick a vowel card is 4/11 or 0.36 or 36%

 

 

What is the probability of picking a consonant card?

Consonants = B, C, D, F, G, H, J, K, L, M, N, P, Q, R, S, T, V, W, X, (Y), Z

 

There are 7 consonants in the word “MATHEMATICS”. 

7/11 chance of picking a consonant card 0.64 or 64%

 

If you draw 888 times from the bag, how many times will you see a vowel card?

0.36 x 888 = 320 vowel cards will be drawn

- Step 1: How many tallies are there all together?  1+5+7+2 = 15

- Step 2: Calculate the probability for HHH, 1 ¸ 15 (tally in HHH divided by total tallies)

1/15 = 0.06 (take two places after the decimal 

 

In your experiment, 70 total attempts, Delnaz gets 5 HHH

The probability for HHH is 5/70 = 0.07

April 19, 2022 Interactions (p.106 to 110)

 

How do living organisms interact with each other?

 

1)    Competition

Competing Species Help Each Other At Timese.g. In a pond (small body of water) has enough food for a small number of fish

If there are too many fish, not enough food

- weak one will not survive

Competition Chapter 13- big fish eat the small fish; Kwok eats the big fish

- some fish will swim elsewhere

- common in the spring (most fish lay eggs, and hatch in the spring) 

 

 

Biological interaction - Wikipedia

- plants also compete with each other: for nutrients in soil, sunlight, water

- too many plants: smaller, shorter and thin

- those that are grown under the shade (not enough Sun – smaller, thin, weak)

 

2)    Predation – predators and prey (victim, be killed)

Predator Prey Relationship: Definition & Examples | Biology Dictionarye.g. in an area with too many predators (e.g. wolves) – not enough food (rabbits, deer). Either the wolves starve and die slowly or find another area with food

Carly's I-Search Blog: Graph/chart/map and citation

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

3)    Mutualism – both organisms benefit from each other

- e.g. honey bees and flowers (bees pollinated the flowers so that the plants bear fruits)

- bacteria and plants in the legume family (bacteria provide nitrogen to the plants for them to grow better)
