The probability that the first two votes drawn are both for candidate a is given by:
3C2/5C2 = 3/10
Having drawn two votes for candidate a on the first two draws, there are 2 votes for candidate b and one vote for candidate a remaining. The probability that a vote for candidate b will be drawn on the third draw is:
2/3.
After the first three draws, there reains one vote for candidate a and one vote for candidate b. The probability that a vote for candidate a will be drawn on the fourth draw is:
1/2.
The probability of the ordering aabab is therefore given by:
\frac{3}{10}\times\frac{2}{3}\times\frac{1}{2}=\frac{6}{60}
The answer is: 0.1.

What is the answer to this and how do I do this problem?
DaniilM [7]

Answer:

  B) 25.1 units

Step-by-step explanation:

The perimeter is the sum of the lengths of the sides of the triangle. The length of the side BC that is vertical can be found by finding the difference of y-coordinates:

  BC = 5 -(-2) = 7

The lengths of the other two sides can be found using the given distance formula. Fill in the coordinate values and do the arithmetic.

  AB = √((4-(-4))^2 +(5-(-1))^2) = √(8^2 +6^2) = √(64+36)

  AB = √100 = 10

__

  AC = √((4-(-4))^2 +(-2-(-1))^2) = √(8^2 +(-1)^2) = √(64 +1)

  AC = √65 ≈ 8.06

__

So, the perimeter is ...

  P = AB +BC +AC

  P = 10 + 7 + 8.06 = 25.06 ≈ 25.1 . . . . matches choice B

Graph the parabola 3x^2+6x-24
brilliants [131]
We have the following function:
 F (x) = 3x ^ 2 + 6x-24
 We observe that it is a quadratic equation.
 The graph is therefore a parabola.
 Its cut points are:
 (-4, 0)
 (2, 0)
 Answer:
 
See attached image to see graph of the function
