Answer: Hence, our required probability is \dfrac{1}{386206920}

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

Numbers in a lottery = 60

Numbers to win the jackpot = 7 numbers

We need to find the probability to hit the jackpot:

So, our required probability is given by

P=\dfrac{^7C_7}{^{60}C_7}\\\\P=\dfrac{1}{386206920}

This is a combination problem as we need to select 7 numbers irrespective of any arrangements.

Hence, our required probability is [tex]\dfrac{1}{386206920}[/tex

Aleksandr [31]
Given a table, with an input (x) and output (y) , you could actually use the slope formula to get the rate of change because slope is the same thing as rate of change. If you recall, the slope formula is (y2-y1)÷(x2-x1)
Just pick two points from the chart and plug them in and that is your rate of change
