Complete question:
Consider a class of 20 students consisting of 5 sophomores, 8 juniors, and 7 seniors. A math instructor assigns a group project in each of the scenarios below, the instructor selects 5 consecutive students from this class, keeping track (in order) of the level of the student that he gets.
1a. How many possible outcomes are in the sample space S? (An outcome is a 5- tuple of students.)
Let A2 denote the event that exactly 2 of the selected students are sophomore, A5 denote the event that exactly 5 of the selected students are the juniors, and A4 denote the event that exactly 4 of the selected students are seniors.
1b. Find the probabilities of each of these three events. A2, A5, A4
1c. Do the events A2, A5, A4 constitute a partition of the sample space?
Answer:
Given:
n = 20
a) The possible outcome in the sample space,S, =
ⁿCₓ = ²⁰C₅
= 15504
b) probabilities of A2, A5, A4
P(A2) = ⁵C₂ / ²⁰C₂
P(A5) = ⁸C₅ / ²⁰C₅
P(A4) = ⁷C₄ / ²⁰C₄
c) No,the events A2, A5, A4, do not comstitute a partition of the sample space. i.e P(A2)+P(A5)+P(A4) ≠ 1
Answer:
The coordinates of B are (10,2)
Step-by-step explanation:
Hi there!
We know that BC has a midpoint M, with the coordinates (6,6), and the endpoint C, with coordinates (2, 10)
We want to find the coordinates of point B
The midpoint formula is , where
and
are points. In this case, the point C has the values of
, and B has the values of
We know that coordinates of M equal
In other words,
Let's plug 2 for and 10 for
So:
Multiply both sides by 2
Subtract 2 from both sides in the first equation to find the value of :
Now, for the second equation, subtract 10 from both sides to find the value of
Now substitute these values for
So the coordinates of point B are (10, 2)
Hope this helps!
