Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

There are 9C3 total ways of picking 3 people from 9 where order does not matter.

To pick 3 boys from 6, you must do 6C3

When you do both of these you divide the smaller by the larger.

9C3 = 84

6C3 = 20

So the probability that you want is

20/84 = 0.238

If you are uncertain where the 84 comes from, it is calculated like this

9*8*7*6! The 6!s cancel out and you are left with

=======

6! * (9 -6)!

9C3 = 9*8*7/3!

9C3 = 3 * 4 * 7 = 84

6C3 is done exactly the same way.

A soccer field has a perimeter of 326 metres. Its area is 6370 square metres. What are the dimensions of the field?

Burka [1]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

chiều dài:x,x>0

chiều rộ:y

$\left \{ {({x+y)*2=326} \atop {xy=6370}} \right.$

$\left \{ {{x+y=163} \atop {xy=6370}} \right.$

$\left \{ {{y=163-x} \atop {xy=6370}} \right.$

$\left \{ {{y=163-x} \atop {x*(163-x)=6370}} \right.$

$\left \{ {{y=163-x} \atop {163x-x^{2} =6370}} \right. \\$

$\left \{ {{y=163-x} \atop {x_{1} =98; x_{2} =65}} \right.$

$\left \{ {{y=65} \atop {x=98}} \right.$

This question is confusing to me so I really would like a clear explanation thank you

Wewaii [24]

So the first hour it travels from 1-6 miles, the second hour it travels at least two miles. And the question is "draw the range of miles the boat could of traveled in the second hour". Well first of all the third hour is completely useless so forget about that. Now, the first hour says it traveled from 1-6 miles, we don't know how many miles it traveled for sure but it could of traveled up to 6. So in the second hour when they say "at least two miles" the boat could of travled at least two miles more than 1-6. So 1+2+3, 2+2+4, 3+2=5, 4+2=6, 5+2=7 and 6+2=8. So the boat could of traveled from 3 to 8 miles in the second hour.
