Probability is the mathematics of chance. In other words, it is the fraction or percentage of a certain event successfully happening. For this problem, you want to determine the probability of selecting 9, 10, 11, 12, 13 or 14 girls. The solution is as follows:
P = nCr p^r q^n-r
where
n is number of total events (n = 14)
r is the number of events that could happen (9, 10, 11, 12 ,13 and 14)
p is the probability of an event being a girl (p = 50% or 0.5)
q is the probability of either an event being a boy (q = 1-p = 0.5)
nCr is a combination formula which is n!/(r!(n-r)!)
P = [14C9* (.5)^9 * (0.5)^5]+ [14C10* (.5)^10 * (0.5)^4]+[14C11* (.5)^11 * (0.5)^3]+[14C12* (.5)^12 * (0.5)^2]+[14C13* (.5)^13 * (0.5)^1]+[14C14* (.5)^14 * (0.5)^0]
P = 0.211 or 21.1%
Answer:
15 + x(.5) = 24 ; x = 18
Step-by-step explanation:
15 + 18(.5) = 24
15 + 9 = 24

Sorry I couldnt find the rest of it.
Answer:
a = -2
Simplifying 5 + -2(4a + 1) + 3a = 13 Reorder the terms: 5 + -2(1 + 4a) + 3a = 13 5 + (1 * -2 + 4a * -2) + 3a = 13 5 + (-2 + -8a) + 3a = 13 Combine like terms: 5 + -2 = 3 3 + -8a + 3a = 13 Combine like terms: -8a + 3a = -5a 3 + -5a = 13 Solving 3 + -5a = 13 Solving for variable 'a'. Move all terms containing a to the left, all other terms to the right. Add '-3' to each side of the equation. 3 + -3 + -5a = 13 + -3 Combine like terms: 3 + -3 = 0 0 + -5a = 13 + -3 -5a = 13 + -3 Combine like terms: 13 + -3 = 10 -5a = 10 Divide each side by '-5'. a = -2
The answer is 345 :) hope this helps u
