Joint variation means that w=kxy where k is constant.
Finding k:
12=k*2*18
12=36k
k=1/3

Now plug in second set of values
16= 1/3*6*y
16=2*y
y=8

Final answer: 8

Find the probability. An IRS auditor randomly selects 3 tax returns (without replacement) from 47 returns of which 5 contain err

grin007 [14]

Number of returns = 47
Number of returns that contain errors = 5
Number of returns that does not contain error = 47 - 5 = 42

P(selecting none that contains error in the unreplaced selection) = 42/47 x 41/46 x 40/45 = 68880 / 97290 = 0.708

option C is the correct answer.
