Answer:

1/4 or 0.25

Step-by-step explanation:

The total possibilities of any 7 digit number using 0-9 is :

9×10×10×10×10×10×10=9000000

To work out the total possibilities in this question :

We look at the conditions :

The first digit can only be 5 numbers :

1 , 3 , 5 , 7 , 9

Now we subtract 5 from 9 :

9-5 = 4

Since no repeats for 2 , 3 , 4, 5, 6:

9 , 8 , 7 , 6 , 5,  

5 possibilities for the last digit :

Total possibilities for this code :

4 × 9 × 8 × 7 × 6 × 5 × 5 = 302400

If it begins with 5 that is only 1 possibility for the first digit

1 × 9 × 8 × 7 × 6 × 5 × 5 = 75600

Now we make a fraction :

75600÷302400

Dividing top and bottom by 75600 gives you 1/4 or 0.25

Hope this helped and have a good day

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Comment

The first digit and the last digit are both odd. That tells you that so far what you have is one of 5 digits for the first digit and and one of 4 for the last digit. 4 because you can't repeat the first digit.

5, , , , , ,4

2 digits are gone 8 remain.

5* 8 * 7* 6* 5* 4* 4 = 134400

Part 2

Only one number can go at the beginning, and that is a 5. Everything else remains the same.

1 * 8 * 7 * 6 *5 * 4 * 4 = 26880

P(picking a number beginning with a 5 is  25880 /13440) = 0.2

Answer:

0.055 = 5.5% probability that exactly 5 employees were over 50.

Step-by-step explanation:

The employees are removed from the sample without replacement, which means that the hypergeometric distribution is used to solve this question.

Hypergeometric distribution:

The probability of x successes is given by the following formula:

P(X = x) = h(x,N,n,k) = \frac{C_{k,x}*C_{N-k,n-x}}{C_{N,n}}

In which:

x is the number of successes.

N is the size of the population.

n is the size of the sample.

k is the total number of desired outcomes.

Combinations formula:

C_{n,x} is the number of different combinations of x objects from a set of n elements, given by the following formula.

C_{n,x} = \frac{n!}{x!(n-x)!}

In this question:

7 + 18 = 25 employees, which means that N = 25

7 over 50, which means that k = 7

10 dismissed, which means that n = 10

What is the probability that exactly 5 employees were over 50?

This is P(X = 5). So

P(X = x) = h(x,N,n,k) = \frac{C_{k,x}*C_{N-k,n-x}}{C_{N,n}}

P(X = 5) = h(5,25,10,7) = \frac{C_{7,5}*C_{18,5}}{C_{25,10}} = 0.055

0.055 = 5.5% probability that exactly 5 employees were over 50.

 What is the radius of a cone with diameter​ d? An ice cream cone is filled exactly level with the top of the cone. The cone has
alekssr [168]

Answer:

radius is 2.5

volume of ice cream is 58.9 cm cubed

Step-by-step explanation:

to calculate the volume of a cone   v=pi x r^2 x (h/3)

v=volume

r=radius

h=height

^ means powers and roots

depth in cones is the same as height

v=3.14 x 2.5^2 x (9/3)

order of operations

v=3.14 x 2.5^2 x 3

v=3.14 x 6.25 x 3

v=19.625 x 3

v=58.875

round

v=58.9

Natalie went to the shoe store and bought two pairs of sneakers. One pair was $35.60, and the other was $49.95. If she has $100.
Contact [7]

First you need to add the prices to get 85.55. Then 100 - 85.55 is 14.45.




She will have $14.45 leftover
