To determine the probability that one or the other circumstances will occur, you will count the number of possible outcomes and divide it by all the possible outcomes.

#of female teaching assistants + # of male teaching assistants + # of female professors

6 + 16 + 11 = 33

Total = 41

33/41 = 80

There is a approximate 80% probability that one or the other will occur.

|\Omega|=41\\ |A|=\underbrace{22}_{\text{teaching assistants}}+\underbrace{17}_{\text{female}}-\underbrace{6}_{\text{female teaching assistants}}=33\\\\ P(A)=\dfrac{33}{41}\approx80\%

Which statements about the graph of the function y=(1/3)
Elena-2011 [213]
Answer: The range of the function is all real numbers is true.

Explanation: the graph of y = 1/3 is just a horizontal line at y = 1/3. so it’s not increasing or decreasing (it’s staying the same). there is no x-intercept, and the y-intercept is (0, 1/3). the range is all the possible y values, and there are infinite possible y values, so it is all real numbers.

hope this helps!
