The offices of​ president, vice​ president, secretary, and treasurer for an environmental club will be filled from a pool of 15 candidates. Eight of the candidates are members of the debate team.
​(a) What is the probability that all of the offices are filled by members of the debate​ team?
​(b) What is the probability that none of the offices are filled by members of the debate​ team?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The probability that all of the offices are filled by members of the debate​ team is 0.0512 and the probability that none of the offices are filled by members of the debate​ team is 0.0256

Step-by-step explanation:

The offices of​ president, vice​ president, secretary, and treasurer for an environmental club will be filled from a pool of 15 candidates.

So, Number of candidates required = 4

Total number of candidates = 15

Number of candidates which are members of the debate team. = 8

So, Number of candidates which are not the members of the debate team = 15-8 =7

The probability that all of the offices are filled by members of the debate​ team = [tex]\frac{^8C_4}{^{15}C_4}=\frac{\frac{8!}{4!\left(8-4\right)!}}{\frac{15!}{4!\left(15-4\right)!}}=0.0512[/tex]

The probability that none of the offices are filled by members of the debate​ team=[tex]\frac{^7C_4}{^{15}C_4}=\frac{\frac{7!}{4!\left(7-4\right)!}}{\frac{15!}{4!\left(15-4\right)!}}=0.0256[/tex]

Hence The probability that all of the offices are filled by members of the debate​ team is 0.0512 and the probability that none of the offices are filled by members of the debate​ team is 0.0256

Algebraically find the roots of the quadratic equation: w2 + 8w+ 15 = 0
(HINT: You may factor or use the quadratic formula)

Answers

Answer:

w = - 5, w = - 3

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

w² + 8w + 15 = 0

Consider the factors of the constant term (+ 15) which sum to give the coefficient of the w- term (+ 8)

The factors are + 5 and + 3 , since

5 × 3 = 15 and 5 + 3 = 8 , thus

(w + 5)(w + 3) = 0 ← in factored form

Equate each factor to zero and solve for w

w + 5 = 0 ⇒ w = - 5

w + 3 = 0 ⇒ w = - 3

- Mrs. Ward found 80-ounce packages of hamburger on sale. If she needs to make

2 of each size hamburger, how many packages of meat will she need to buy?

Answers

The question is incomplete! Complete question along with answer and step by step explanation is provided below.

Question:

The Whispering Lakes  Neighborhood Association is  having a hamburger cookout.  Each family can choose whether  to order the hamburgers or  bring their own. Use the  information in the table to solve  the number stories. Use  drawings, tables, or equations  to show what you did.

Mrs. Ward found 80-ounce packages of hamburger on sale. If she needs to make  2 of each size hamburger, how many packages of meat will she need to buy?

Answer:

The number of meat packages is

100/80 = 1.25 = 5/4

Assuming that the number of packages cannot be in fraction, then she would need at least 2 packages of meat.

Number of meat packages = 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Please refer to the attached table where we are given size of hamburgers and the weight of corresponding hamburger patty in pounds.

small = 1/8 lb

medium = 1/4 lb

large = 1/2 lb

jumbo = 3/4 lb

king of burgers = 1 1/2 lb = 3/2 lb

To make 1 of each hamburger we need

Total weight of patty = 1/8 + 1/4 + 1/2 + 3/4 + 3/2

Total weight of patty = 25/8 = 3.125 lb

But she needs to make  2 of each size hamburger so,

Total weight of patty = (25/8)×2 = 25/4 = 6.25 lb

Mrs. Ward found 80-ounce packages of hamburger on sale

first we have to convert pounds into ounces

We know that 1 pound has 16 ounces

6.25×16 = 100 ounces

So the number of meat packages required is

100/80 = 1.25 = 5/4

Assuming that the number of packages cannot be in fraction, then she would need at least 2 packages of meat.

Number of meat packages = 2

What is the diameter of earth? Round your answer to the nearest tenth. Use 3.14 for π.

Enter your answer in the box below.
____miles





Answers

Answer:

Diameter of the earth is 7930.25 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the diameter of the earth, we will follow the steps below:

first write the formula of the circumference

c = 2πr ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------(1)

where r is the radius  and c is the circumference

from the diagram below, circumference is given to be 24901 miles

π = 3.14

substitute the value of c and π  into equation (1) and solve for r

c = 2πr

24901 = 2 × 3.14× r

24901 = 6.28 r

Divide both-side pf the equation by 6.28

24901/6.28 = 6.28 r/6.28

3965.1274≈ r to the nearest tenth

r≈ 3965.1274 miles

But diameter = 2r

diameter = 2 × 3965.1274

diameter ≈ 7930.25  to the nearest tenth

Diameter of the earth is 7930.25 miles

Answer:

7930.3miles

Step-by-step explanation:

The earth is spherical in shape. The formula for calculating the circumference of a sphere is πd where d is thee diameter of the earth.

C = πd

Given C = 24, 901miles and π = 3.14, on substituting,

24, 901 = 3.14d

d = 24,901/3.14

d = 7930.255

d ≈ 7930.3miles to the nearest tenth

A box contains 24 transistors, 4 of which are defective. If 4 are sold at random, find the following probabilities. [4×5 marks] A box contains 24 transistors, 4 of which are defective. If 4 are sold at random, find the following probabilities.
a) Exactly 2 are defectives.
b) None is defective.
c) All are defective.
d) At least 1 is defective.

Answers

Answer:

a) 10.73%

b) 45.60%

c) 0.0094%

d) 54.4%

Step-by-step explanation:

The probability of one transistor being defective is equal the number of defective transistors over the total number of transistors

a)

The probability of the first one being defective is 4/24, and then the probability of the second one being defective is 3/23, because we have one less defective transistor. The probability of the third one being not defective is 20/22, and the fourth one not being defective is 19/21. We also multiply the final probability by a combination of 4 choose 2, because the defective transistors can be any 2 of the group of 4:

C(4,2) = 4! / (2! * 2!) = 6

P = 6 * (4/24) * (3/23) * (20/22) * (19/21) = 0.1073 = 10.73%

b)

Similar to the letter a), we have:

First one not defective: P = 20/24

Second one not defective: P = 19/23

Third one not defective: P = 18/22

Fourth one not defective: P = 17/21

P = (20/24) * (19/23) * (18/22) * (17/21) = 0.4560 = 45.60%

c)

First one defective: P = 4/24

Second one defective: P = 3/23

Third one defective: P = 2/22

Fourth one defective: P = 1/21

P = (4/24) * (3/23) * (2/22) * (1/21) = 0.000094 = 0.0094%

d)

If we want at least 1 defective, we just need to subtract 100% from the case where all 4 are not defective:

P = 1 - 0.4560 = 0.5440 = 54.4%

In this exercise we have to use the knowledge of probability to calculate each of the requested probabilities, so we can say that:

a) [tex]10.73\%[/tex]

b) [tex]45.60\%[/tex]

c) [tex]0.0094\%[/tex]

d) [tex]54.4\%[/tex]

 

a)The probability of the first one being defective is 4/24, and then the probability of the second one being defective is 3/23, because we have one less defective transistor. So the combination will be:

[tex]C(4,2) = 4! / (2! * 2!) = 6\\P = 6 * (4/24) * (3/23) * (20/22) * (19/21) = 0.1073 = 10.73%[/tex]

b)So find the not defective, we have:

First one: P = 20/24 Second one: P = 19/23 Third one: P = 18/22 Fourth one: P = 17/21

[tex]P = (20/24) * (19/23) * (18/22) * (17/21) = 0.4560 = 45.60%[/tex]

c)So find the defective, we have:

First one: P = 4/24 Second one: P = 3/23 Third one: P = 2/22 Fourth one: P = 1/21

[tex]P = (4/24) * (3/23) * (2/22) * (1/21) = 0.000094 = 0.0094%[/tex]

d)We just need to subtract 100% from the case where all 4 are not defective:

[tex]P = 1 - 0.4560 = 0.5440 = 54.4%[/tex]
