Answer:

The probability that all three people on the subcommittee are men

= 20%

Step-by-step explanation:

Number of members in the committee = 15

= 8 men + 7 women

The probability of selecting a man in the committee

= 8/15

= 53%

The probability of selecting three men from eight men

= 3/8

= 37.5%

The probability that all three people on the subcommittee are men

= probability of selecting a man multiplied by the probability of selecting three men from eight men

= 53% x 37.5%

= 19.875%

= 20% approx.

This is the same as:

The probability of selecting 3 men from the 15 member-committee

= 3/15

= 20%

A scale drawing of a building shows 1 inch = 8 feet. How many feet are represented by 3 ¾ inches on the drawing?
Gennadij [26K]

Answer:

30 feet is represented by 3 3/4 inches on the drawing

Step-by-step explanation:

We have the relation as;

1 inch = 8 feet

Thus;

3 3/4 inches = x feet

x = 3 3/4 * 8

x = 15/4 * 8

x = 30 feet
