A company orders supplies from M distributors and wishes to place n orders (n < M). Assume that the company places the orders
harkovskaia [24]

Answer:

a) 0.06048 b) 0.001344 c) 0.000294

Step-by-step explanation:

number of distributors = 10;

number of orders = 7

a)

There are 10 distributors for each order, so the no. of ways the 7 orders could be placed are = 10⁷ =10000000

no. of ways that orders goes to different distributors = ¹⁰C₇*7! = 604800

Probability = 604800/10000000 = 0.06048

b)

number of ways distributor 1 gets exactly 2 and distributor 2 gets exactly 3 orders = ⁷C₂*⁵C₃*8² = 13440

probability = 13440/10000000 = 0.001344

c)

number of ways distributor 1, 2,3 get exactly 2,3 and 1 order(s) = ⁷C₂*⁵C₃*²C₁*7¹ = 2940

probability = 2940/10000000 = 0.000294

Zepler [3.9K]
The nature of the roots of a quadratic equation may be readily determined through the use of its discriminant,
                                         D = sqrt (b² - 4ac)
We can tell if the quadratic equation does not have a real root it the radicand is negative. Therefore, the answer is letter A.
