12 sugar / 4/5 sugar/bowls = 15 bowls. Hope you notice the conversion of units.

The offices of president, vice president, secretary, and treasurer for an environmental club will be filled from a pool of 15c

Alexus [3.1K]

Answer:

a) 5.13% probability that all of the offices are filled by members of the debate team

b) 2.56% probability that none of the offices are filled by members of the debate team

Step-by-step explanation:

A probability is the number of desired outcomes divided by the number of total outcomes.

The order in which the people are chosen is important, since the first person is the president, the second is the vice president and so on... So we use the permutations formula to solve this question.

Permutations formula:

The number of possible permutations of x elements from a set of n elements is given by the following formula:

$P_{(n,x)} = \frac{n!}{(n-x)!}$

(a) What is the probability that all of the offices are filled by members of the debate team?

Desired outcomes:

4(president, vice president, secretary, and treasurer) offices from a set of 8(candidates of the members debate team).

$D = P_{(8,4)} = \frac{8!}{(8-4)!} = 1680$

Total outcomes:

4 offices from a set of 15 candidates.

$T = P_{(15,4)} = \frac{15!}{(15-4)!} = 32760$

Probability:

$P = \frac{D}{T} = \frac{1680}{32760} = 0.0513$

5.13% probability that all of the offices are filled by members of the debate team

(b) What is the probability that none of the offices are filled by members of the debate team?

Desired outcomes:

4(president, vice president, secretary, and treasurer) offices from a set of 7(candidates who are not of the members debate team).

$D = P_{(7,4)} = \frac{7!}{(7-4)!} = 840$

Total outcomes:

4 offices from a set of 15 candidates.

$T = P_{(15,4)} = \frac{15!}{(15-4)!} = 32760$

Probability:

$P = \frac{D}{T} = \frac{840}{32760} = 0.0256$

2.56% probability that none of the offices are filled by members of the debate team

Find the area of a circle with a radius of 6.7 m to the nearest square unit

dem82 [27]

Answer:

141 Square units.

Step-by-step explanation:

Area of a circle is equal to pi*radius squared.

$A = \pi \times 6.7^{2} \\A = 141.026....\\A \approx 141 u^2$

Given the two points: (0,6) and (6,18), write the equation of the line.

NNADVOKAT [17]

Y=2x+6 We know the y intercept is +6 so we still can’t eliminate any of the options. We know it can’t be 1/3x or 1/2x because the y value is greater than the x value. (6)(2)+6=18
