Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Here is the complete question.

Dominique, Marco, Roberto , and John work for a publishing company. The company wants to send two employees to a statistics conference. To be fair, the company decides that the two individuals who get to attend will have their names drawn from a hat. This is like obtaining a simple random sample of size 2. (a) Determine the sample space of the experiment. That is, list all possible simple random samples of size n = 2. (b) What is the probability that Dominique and Marco attend the conference? (c) What is the probability that John attends the conference?  ​(d) What is the probability that John stays​ home?

Since there are four employees to select the two to send from. then for us to get the sample space for the experiment we need to merge all possible two employees and represent them as set.

Let D = Dominique, M = Marco, R = Roberto and J = John

a) The sample space for the experiment is the total number of possible outcomes that we can have. It is as given below

S = 4C2 = 4!/(4-2)!2! (Selecting 2 out of 4 employees)

Total sample space = 4!/2!2!

Total sample space = 4*3*2!/2!2

Total sample space = 12/2 = 6

The sample space are S = {DM, DR, DJ, MR, MJ, RJ}

b) Probability is the ratio of number of event to the sample space.

P = n(E)/n(S)

Given n(S) = 6

n(E) is the event of Dominique and Marco attending the conference.

E = {DM}

n(E) = 1

P(D and M) = 1/6

Hence  the probability that Dominique and Marco attend the conference is 1/6

c) For John to attend the conference, the event outcome will be given as;

E = {DJ, MJ, RJ}

n(E) = 3

n(S) = 6

Probability for John to attend the conference is 3/6 = 1/2

d) Probability that John stays at home = 1 - Prob (John attends the conference)

Probability that John stays at home = 1 - 1/2

Probability that John stays at home = 1/2

The voltage in an electrical circuit is multiplied by itself each time it is reduced. The voltage is 27/125 of a volt and it has
alexgriva [62]

I belive this is the answer

x³ = 27/125; and

x = 3/5.

explanation:

Reducing the voltage 3 times would result in multiplying the unknown voltage, x, by itself 3 times; this gives us

x³.

The current voltage is 27/125; this gives us the equation

x³ = 27/125.

To solve this, take the cubed root of both sides:

∛(x³) = ∛(27/125)

x = (∛27)/(∛125)

x = (∛(3*3*3))/(∛(5*5*5))

x = 3/5

Select the correct<br> function<br> that represents<br> this data.
lidiya [134]

Answer:

f(x) = -5x - 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Plug in the first set of values into each possible equation. Whichever equation yields the correct ouputs (y-values) for ALL input (x-values) is the correct answer. For the function f(x) = -5x - 2,  f(-2) = 8, f(-1) = 3 and so on... So f(x) = -5x - 2 is the correct answer!

Hope this helps!
