If X is the number of hats . . . reading backwards . . .

Thursday = Wednesday + Tuesday

17 = 1/2 X + 5

Solving:

17 - 5 = 1/2 X

12 = 1/2 X

24 = X

So she had 24 on Monday.

The probability of an event - picking teams. About (a) 10 kids are randomly grouped into an A team with five kids and a B team w

LuckyWell [14K]

Answer: The required probability is $\dfrac{4}{9}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

Number of kids = 10

Number of kids in Team A = 5

Number of kids in Team B = 5

There are three kids in the group, Alex and his two best friends Jose and Carl.

So, number of favourable outcome is given by

$2(\dfrac{8!}{3!\times 5!})$

Total number of outcomes is given by

$\dfrac{10!}{5!\times 5!}$

So, the probability that Alex ends up on the same team with at least one of his two best friends is given by

$\dfrac{2(\dfrac{8!}{5!\times 3!)}}{\dfrac{10!}{5!\times 5!}}\\\\=2\times \dfrac{8!}{3!}\times \dfrac{5!}{10!}\\\\=\dfrac{4}{9}$

Hence, the required probability is $\dfrac{4}{9}$
