Answer: 259/260 or 0.99615 (depending on which answer format your teacher wants)
There are 10 numbers in the set {0, 1, 2, ..., 9}. There are 26 letters in the set {A, B, C, ..., Z}. Multiply those values: 10*26 = 260. So there are 260 ways to pick a number followed by a letter. One example is 7P.
There is only one way Matthew can get the correct answer, and there are 260 - 1 = 259 ways to get the wrong answer. We divide 259 over 260 to get the probability of getting the incorrect answer, which is 259/260.
If you need this fraction in decimal form, then use a calculator to find that 259/260 = 0.99615 approximately
Answer: A= 1,-5 b=5,-3
Step-by-step explanation: i dont have one
If nCk represents the number of ways k parts can be chosen from a pool of n, the probability of interest is the complement of the probability of selecting all good parts.
1 - (167C3)/(170C3) = 42,085/804,440 ≈ 0.0523
_____
nCk = n!/(k!(n-k)!)
Answer:
Answer is D or a
Step-by-step explanation:
We can assume that B leaves Los Angeles not at noon but at 2pm Eastern Time, so 5 hours later than A leaves New York.
In 5 hours A covers 5*40=200 miles. So, A and B together should cover 3,000-200=2,800 miles.
Combined rate = 40 + 60 = 100 miles per hour.
To cover 2,800 miles they'll need 2,800/100=28 hours.
2pm Eastern Time on Monday + 28 hours = 6pm Eastern Time on Tuesday.
Answer: 6:00pm on Tuesday
