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%

In a class of 50 students,35 like horror movies, 30 ike war movie and 5 like.Find the numbers of students who like both.set math
Arte-miy333 [17]

Answer:

18 like both.

Step-by-step explanation:

If there are 50 students and 3 like neither math or physics, then 47 of them either like one or both of the subjects. Adding up the 30 and 35, we get that 65 of the students like the two subjects collectively. Well that’s not right. We have overcounted the 65–47=18 students who like both subjects. Thus, 35–18=17 students only like physics.

Check: We have 3 students who like neither, 18 who like both, 17 who like just physics, and 30–18=12 who just like math. Adding them up, we have 18+17+12+3=50 students all togtether

If the vertex of a parabola is (0, 3), what is the axis of symmetry
GREYUIT [131]

Answer:

The equation of the axis of symmetry for this parabola is x = 0.

Step-by-step explanation:

For parabola's, it's axis of symmetry always goes through the vertex of the parabola. In other words, the axis of symmetry is vertical line that goes through the x-coordinate of the vertex.

Now, the vertex is given as (0,3) which is at x = 0, y = 3.

Thus, the vertical line that goes through the x-coordinate of the vertex will be x = 0

Thus, the equation of the axis of symmetry for this parabola is x = 0.
