g A trial jury of 6 people is selected from 20 people: 8 women and 12 men. What is the probability that the jury will have an od

cricket20 [7]

Answer: P(odd) = 0.499

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Total number of people = 20

Number of men = 12

Number of women = 8

Number of jury to be selected = 6

For the jury to have an odd number of women. it must have either of the three.

1. 1 woman , 5 men

2. 3 women, 3 men

3. 5 women, 1 man

The total possible ways of selecting the 6 people jury is;

N = 20C6 = 20!/6!(20-6)!

N = 38760

The possible ways of selecting;

Case 1 : 1 woman, 5 men

N1 = 8C1 × 12C5

N1 = 8 × 792 = 6336

Case 2 : 3 women , 3 men

N2 = 8C3 × 12C3

N2 = 12320

Case 3 : 5 women, 1 man

N3 = 8C5 × 12C1

N3 = 672

P(Odd) = (N1+N2+N3)/N

P(odd) = (6336+12320+672)/38760

P(odd) = 19328/38760

P(odd) = 0.499

An angle is equal to one-third of its complement. Find the angle's measure.

artcher [175]

Let $x^\circ$ be the measure of the angle in question. Its complement has measure $(90-x)^\circ$ . We're told that this angle is congruent to 1/3 of its complement, so that

$x^\circ=\dfrac{(90-x)^\circ}3\implies3x^\circ=(90-x)^\circ\implies4x^\circ=90^\circ\implies x=22.5^\circ$

The shorter leg of a right triangle is 5 inches shorter than the longer leg. The hypotenuse is 5 inches longer than the longer l

Licemer1 [7]

Answer:

longer leg: 20 in

shorter leg: 15 in

hypotenuse: 25 in

Formulas:

Pythagorean Theorem

$c^2 = a^2 + b^2$

c ... hypotenuse

a ... one leg

b ... another leg

Pythagorean theorem is used in right triangles (triangles in which one angle is 90°).

Step-by-step explanation:

longer leg: x

shorter leg: x - 5

hypotenuse: x + 5

To find x (longer leg), let's use Pythagorean theorem.

$c^2 = a^2 + b^2\\(x+5)^2 = x^2 + (x-5)^2\\x^2 + 10x + 25= x^2 + x^2 -10x + 25\\x^2 + 10x = 2x^2 - 10x\\0 = x^2 - 20x$

Now let's factorize to get solutions for x.

$0 = x(x-20)$

First solution:

$x = 0$

Second solution:

$x - 20 = 0\\x = 20$

Since a side of a triangle has to be a positive number, x is equal to 20.

Now let's just substitute x back to get side lengths. From the question the lengths are in inches.

longer leg: x = 20 in

shorter leg: x - 5 = 20 - 5 = 15 in

hypotenuse: x + 5 = 20 + 5 = 25 in
