Answer:

A, B, E

Step-by-step explanation:

Permutations are involved when order matters, as in lane assignment, passwords, and seating charts.

When the end result is a "group of 10 students", "3 employees", or "4 cashiers", clearly order does not matter. One student, employee, or cashier is as good as another in these cases.

Angle A is shown below.<br>What is the measure of LA, in degrees?

Vesna [10]

The measure of angle A is 55°.

Solution:

Let us take B be the adjacent angle of 145°.

<em>Sum of the adjacent angles in a straight line = 180°</em>

⇒ m∠B + 145° = 180°

Subtract 145° from both sides.

⇒ m∠B + 145° - 145° = 180° - 145°

⇒ m∠B = 35°

The adjacent angle of 145° is 35°.

In the image, angle B and angle A equal to 90°.

⇒ m∠B + m∠A = 90°

⇒ 35° + m∠A = 90°

Subtract 35° from both sides.

⇒ m∠A = 55°

The measure of angle A is 55°.

According to government data, 75% of employed women have never been married. Rounding to 4 decimal places, if 15 employed women

blagie [28]

Answer:

We are given that According to government data, 75% of employed women have never been married.

So, Probability of success = 0.75

So, Probability of failure = 1-0.75 = 0.25

If 15 employed women are randomly selected:

a. What is the probability that exactly 2 of them have never been married?

We will use binomial

Formula : $P(X=r) =^nC_r p^r q^{n-r}$

At x = 2

$P(X=r) =^{15}C_2 (0.75)^2 (0.25^{15-2}$

$P(X=2) =\frac{15!}{2!(15-2)!} (0.75)^2 (0.25^{13}$

$P(X=2) =8.8009 \times 10^{-7}$

b. That at most 2 of them have never been married?

At most two means at x = 0 ,1 , 2

So, $P(X=r) =^{15}C_0 (0.75)^0 (0.25^{15-0}+^{15}C_1 (0.75)^1 (0.25^{15-1}+^{15}C_2 (0.75)^2 (0.25^{15-2}$

$P(X=r) =(0.75)^0 (0.25^{15-0}+15 (0.75)^1 (0.25^{15-1}+\frac{15!}{2!(15-2)!} (0.75)^2 (0.25^{15-2})$

$P(X=r) =9.9439 \times 10^{-6}$

c. That at least 13 of them have been married?

P(x=13)+P(x=14)+P(x=15)

$={15}C_{13}(0.75)^{13} (0.25^{15-13})+{15}C_{14} (0.75)^{14}(0.25^{15-14}+{15}C_{15} (0.75)^{15} (0.25^{15-15})$

$=\frac{15!}{13!(15-13)!}(0.75)^{13} (0.25^{15-13})+\frac{15!}{14!(15-14)!} (0.75)^{14}(0.25^{15-14}+{15}C_{15} (0.75)^{15} (0.25^{15-15})$

$=0.2360$
