Answer: Our required probability is 0.1695.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

Number of male applicants = 4200

Number of female applicants = 3800

So, total number of applicants = 4200+3800 = 8000

Probability of male entered and subsequently enrolled is given by

0.4\times 0.4=0.16

Probability of female entered and subsequently enrolled is given by

0.4\times 0.45\\\\=0.18

Number of male entered and subsequently enrolled is given by

0.16\times 4200\\\\=672

Number of female entered and subsequently enrolled is given by

0.18\times 3800\\\\=684

So, Probability that a student who applied  for admission will be accepted by the university and subsequently will enroll is given by

\dfrac{672+684}{8000}\\\\=\dfrac{1356}{8000}\\\\=0.1695

Hence, our required probability is 0.1695.

-1 &lt; x &lt; 4<br> x is an integer.<br> Write down the possible values of x.
bogdanovich [222]

Answer:

0, 1, 2, 3

Step-by-step explanation:

-1 < x < 4 means that x has to be an integer (whole number aka no fractions)  between -1 and 4. Note that the < and > means that x cannot be -1 or 4 since it has to be greater than -1, or smaller than 4.

Choose the equation that represents the line that passes through the point (6,-3,) and has a slope of 1/2
dezoksy [38]

Answer:

y=\frac{1}{2}x-6

Step-by-step explanation:

The general equation of a line: y = ax+b

In our case <em>a</em> is given

a=\frac{1}{2}

Now we plug in for <em>a</em> and we get:

y=\frac{1}{2}*x+b

Now we plug in our coordinates into this equation and we solve for <em>b</em>

-3=\frac{1}{2}*6+b\\b = -6

So the equation of the line is y=\frac{1}{2}x-6
