Answer:

The probability that all are male of choosing '3' students

P(E) = 0.067 = 6.71%

Step-by-step explanation:

Let 'M' be the event of selecting males n(M) = 12

Number of ways of choosing 3 students From all males and females

n(M) = 28C_{3} = \frac{28!}{(28-3)!3!} =\frac{28 X 27 X 26}{3 X 2 X 1 } = 3,276

Number of ways of choosing 3 students From all males

n(M) = 12C_{3} = \frac{12!}{(12-3)!3!} =\frac{12 X 11 X 10}{3 X 2 X 1 } =220

The probability that all are male of choosing '3' students

P(E) = \frac{n(M)}{n(S)} = \frac{12 C_{3} }{28 C_{3} }

P(E) =  \frac{12 C_{3} }{28 C_{3} } = \frac{220}{3276}

P(E) = 0.067 = 6.71%

<u><em>Final answer</em></u>:-

The probability that all are male of choosing '3' students

P(E) = 0.067 = 6.71%

Suppose that E and F are two events and that P(E)=0.3 and P(F|E)=0.5. What is P(E and F)?
Sergio [31]

E and F are two events and that P(E)=0.3 and P(F|E)=0.5. Thus, P(E and F)=0.15


Bayes' theorem is transforming preceding probabilities into succeeding probabilities. It is based on the principle of conditional probability. Conditional probability is the possibility that an event will occur because it is dependent on another event.

P(F|E)=P(E and F)÷P(E)

It is given that P(E)=0.3,P(F|E)=0.5

Using Bayes' formula,

P(F|E)=P(E and F)÷P(E)

Rearranging the formula,

⇒P(E and F)=P(F|E)×P(E)

Substituting the given values in the formula, we get

⇒P(E and F)=0.5×0.3

⇒P(E and F)=0.15

∴The correct answer is 0.15.

If, E and F are two events and that P(E)=0.3 and P(F|E)=0.5. Thus, P(E and F)=0.15.

Tomas and Tasha were hiking at a speed of 3.5 mph. On their way back, they were tired and their speed was 2 mph. How long was th
Anna35 [415]

 To get the length of the route use the expression for speed,

Distance = Speed × Time

Length of the route is 7 miles.

It's given in the question,

 Speed of Tomas and Tasha initially = 3.5 mph

Therefore, distance travelled by both with the speed of 2 mph one way will be,

 Distance = 3.5t [Here, t = time ]

Speed of both while coming back = 2 mph

And the time taken = t + (1 hour 30 minutes)

                                 = (t + 1.5) hours

Therefore, distance travelled while coming back = Speed × Time

                                                                                  = 2(t + 1.5)

Since, length of the route is same both ways,

3.5t = 2(t + 1.5)

3.5t = 2t + 3

3.5t - 2t = 3

1.5t = 3

t = 2 hours

Now substitute the value of t in the expression to get the distance of the route,

Distance = 3.5t

               = 3.5 × 2

               = 7 miles

 Therefore, route was 7 miles long.
