Answer:

Option D

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : Christina is randomly choosing 3 movies to take on vacation from 9 action movies, seven science fiction movies, and four comedies.

To find : Which statement is true?

Solution :

Total number of movies 9 + 7 + 4 = 20

The total number of combinations of choosing 3 movies from a pool of 20 is represented by $^{20}C_3$

Since there are 9 action movies in total and we're choosing 3, the number of combinations to do that is $^{9}C_3$

So the probability of choosing all action movies is the combinations of choosing all action movies divided by all the possible combinations of choosing any 3 movies from 20.

$=\frac{^{9}C_3}{^{20}C_3}$

Therefore, the probability of not choosing all action movies is

$=1-\frac{^{9}C_3}{^{20}C_3}$

Hence, Option D is correct.

Best answer to this would be the probability that Christina will choose three action movies can be expressed as 20C3/9C3 .

Thepotemich [5.8K]

Answer and explanation:

Given : Strands Copper wire from a manufacturer are analyzed forstrenghth and conductivity. The Results from 100 strands are as follows :

Strength Strength

High Low

High conductivity 74 8

Low conductivity 15 3

To find :

a) If a stand is randomly selected, the probability that is conductivity is high and its strength is high

The favorable outcome is 74

The probability is given by,

$P=\frac{74}{100}=0.74$

b) If a stand is randomly selected, the probability that its conductivity is low or strength is low

Conductivity is low A= 15+3=18

Strength is low B= 8+3=11

Conductivity is low and strength is low $A\cap B=3$

Probability is given by,

$P(A\cup B)=P(A)+P(B)-P(A\cap B)$

$P(A\cup B)=\frac{18}{100}+\frac{11}{100}-\frac{3}{100}$

$P(A\cup B)=0.18+0.11-0.03$

$P(A\cup B)=0.26$

c) Consider the event that a strand low conductivity and the event that the strand has a low strength. Are these tow events mutually exclusive?

Since the events the stand has low conductivity and the stand has low strength are not mutually exclusive, since there exists some cases in which both the events coincide. i.e. Intersection of both the events exists with probability 0.03.

the length of a boat is 10.8 m Boris buys a scale model of the boat the scale of the model is 1 to 18 work out the length of the

Wittaler [7]

Answer:

The size of the scale model is 60 centimeters.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that the length of a boat is 10.8 m, and Boris buys a scale model of the boat whose ratio is 1 to 18, to determine the length of the scale model of the boat in centimeters the following calculation must be performed:

1m = 100cm

10.8 m = (10.8 x 100) = 1080 cm

1080/18 = X

60 = X

Therefore, the size of the scale model is 60 centimeters.
