Answer:
53.33% probability that one woman and one man will be chosen to be on the committee
Step-by-step explanation:
A probability is the number of desired outcomes divided by the number of total outcomes.
The order in which the members are chosen is not important, so we use the combinations formula to solve this question.
Combinations formula:
is the number of different combinations of x objects from a set of n elements, given by the following formula.
What is the probability that one woman and one man will be chosen to be on the committee?
Desired outcomes:
One woman, from a set of 2, and one man, from a set of 4. So
Total outcomes:
Two members from a set of 2 + 4 = 6. So
Probability:
53.33% probability that one woman and one man will be chosen to be on the committee
I was confused at first until I realized that you'd shared not one, not two, but three questions in one post. would you please post just one question at a time to avoid this.
I'll focus on your second question only: Solve <span>3 + |2x - 4| = 15.
Subtr. 3 from both sides. Result: |2x - 4| = 12
Divide all terms by 2, to reduce: |x - 2| = 6
Case 1: x-2 is already +, so we don't need | |:
x - 2 = 6 => x = 8 (first answer)
Case 2: x-2 is negative, so |2x-4| = -(2x-4) = 6
Then -2x + 8 = 6. Subtr. 8 from both sides: -2x = -2
Div both sides by -2: x = 1 (second answer)
Be sure to check these results by subst. them into the original equation.
Please post your other questions separately. Thanks and good luck!

Step-by-step explanation:
Assume that the amount needed from the 5% solution is x and that the amount needed from the 65% solution is y.
We are given that, the final solution should be 42 ml, this means that:
x + y = 42 ...........> equation I
This can also be written as:
x = 42-y .......> equation II
We are also given that the final concentration should be 45%, this means that:
5% x + 65% y = 45% (x+y)
0.05x + 0.65y = 0.45(x+y)
We have x+y = 42 from equation I, therefore:
0.05x + 0.65y = 0.45(42)
0.05x + 0.65y = 18.9 .........> equation III
Substitute with equation II in equation III as follows:
0.05x + 0.65y = 18.9
0.05(42-y) + 0.65y = 18.9
2.1 - 0.05y + 0.65y = 18.9
0.6y = 18.9 - 2.1
0.6y = 16.8
y = 28 ml
Substitute with y in equation II to get x as follows:
x = 42-y
x = 42 - 28
x = 14 ml
Based on the above calculations:
amount of 5% solution = x = 14 ml
amount of 65% solution = y = 28 ml
The correct choice is:
The teacher will need 14 mL of the 5% solution and 28 mL of the 65% solution.
