Answer:

<h2>The numbers are 100 and 234 </h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the numbers be x and y

The statement

difference of two numbers is 166 is written as

x - y = 166.......... Equation 1

The sum of the same two numbers is 234 is written as

x + y = 234 ............. Equation 2

Solve the equations simultaneously

<u>Add both equations 1 and 2</u>

That's

x + x + y - y = 166 + 234

2x = 400

Divide both sides by 2

Substitute the value into the first equation

That's

100 + y = 234

y = 100 - 234

<h3>The numbers are 100 and 234 </h3>

Answer:

P(X=2)=0.04129

Step-by-step explanation:

-This is a binomial probability problem whose function is expressed as;

$P(X=x)={n\choose x}p^x(1-p){n-x}$

-Given that p=0.6, n=8 , the probability that among the students in the sample exactly two are female is calculated as:

$P(X=x)={n\choose x}p^x(1-p)^{n-x}\\\\P(X=2)={8\choose2}0.6^2(1-0.6)^6\\\\=0.04129$

Hence, the probability of exactly two females is 0.04129
