Answer:
21 / 143
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that:
Number of Eastern conference reps = 8
Number of western conference rep = 7
Probability of selecting 3 from Eastern reps and 2 from western reps
Probability = required outcome / Total possible outcomes
Total possible outcomes:
selection to be made = 3+ 2 = 5
Total Number of players = 8 +7 = 15
Total possible outcomes
Using combination formula :
nCr = n! / (n-r)!r!
15C5 = 15! / 10!5! = (15 * 14 * 13 * 12 * 11) / (5*4'3*2*1) = 360360 / 120 = 3003
Total possible outcomes = 3003
Required outcome :
8C3 * 7C2
8C3 = 56 ; 7C2 = 21
8C3 * 7C2 = 56 * 21 = 1176
required outcome / Total possible outcomes
= 1176 / 3003
= 21 / 143
Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:
2)
a) elimination method
b) substitution method
c) substitution method
For the first part we can elimate the y variable by subtracting the equations. We can then find the value of x.
For the second part we can substitute y as 2x+5 in the second equation and solve for x.
For the third part we can substitute y as 4x+3 in the first equation and solve for x.
3)

Answer:
k = 18
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that y varies inversely as x then the equation relating them is
y =
← k is the constant of variation
To find k use the condition y = 3 when x = 6, that is
3 =
( multiply both sides by 6 )
18 = k
The constant of variation is k = 18

Hope this helped hope you have a good day
You would take 3 into 7.5 to get that scale factor.
