Answer:

2/3

Step-by-step explanation:

We solve with combination formula

C(n, r) = nCr = n!/r!( n - r)!

The selection will happen between four women and six men

Total number of people = Total number of possibly outcomes = Four women + six men

= 10 people

This can happen in two ways

a) 2 women

b) 1 man and 1 woman

The probability that at least one woman is selected =

4C2 ×(6C1 + 4C1)÷ 2 ways / 10C2

[6 × (6+ 4)] ÷ 2 / 45

= (6 × 10) ÷ 2/45

= 30/45

= 2/3

bryan has some 3 cent stamps and some 4 cent stamps. what is the least number of stamps he can combine so the value of the stamp
SashulF [63]

Answer:

The least number of stamps required is 9

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number of 3 cent stamps be x and 4 cent stamps be y

We have

3x+4y=33

The minimum number is obtained when more  4 cent stamps are used

Here y cannot be greater than 8 since \frac{33}{4}

Substitute y=8

3x+4\times 8=33\\\\3x=1\\\\x=\frac{1}{3}

Not possible since x is not a fraction

Substitute y=7

3x+4\times 7=33\\\\3x=5\\\\x=\frac{5}{3}

Not possible since x is not a fraction

Substitute y=6

3x+4\times 6=33\\\\3x=9\\\\x=\frac{9}{3}\\\\=3

Possible

Hence minimum number of stamps is

=x+y\\\\=3+6\\\\=9

Evaluate the expression 3(7 + 4)2 − 14 ÷ 7. 50 361 363 586
Kipish [7]
It appears that none of your option choices are correct,, are you sure you copied them right ? I will show you how to solve this and how I got my answer.
The first step for solving this is to add the numbers in the parenthesis.
3 × 11 × 2 - 14 ÷ 7
Divide -14 by 7.
3 × 11 × 2 - 2
Divide the first 3 numbers together.
66 - 2
Subtract the numbers together to get your final answer.
64
