Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Probability is the likelihood or chance that an event will occur.

<em>Probability = expected number of outcome/Total number of outcome</em>

If there are group of 11 people, then the total outcome of events will be 11

If we are to select 4 oldest people from the group, then the expected outcome is 4.

Hence, the probability that the 4 oldest people in the group were selected is 4/11.

Ten times the sum of half a number and 6 is 8

nexus9112 [7]

Let the required number is 2x ,

According to the condition,

➡ 10 times the sum of half of 2x and 6 = 8

$= > 10 \times ( \frac{2x}{2} + 6) = 8 \\ \\ \\ = > 10 \times (x + 6) = 8 \\ \\ \\ = > 10x + 60 = 8 \\ \\ \\ = > 10x = 8 - 60 \\ \\ \\ = > 10x = - 52 \\ \\ \\ = > x = - \frac{ 52}{10} \\ \\ \\ = > x = - 5.2$

Therefore the value of x is -5.2

And, required number is -5.2
