Answer:

35/92

Step-by-step explanation:

There are 15 + 9 = 24 total students.

There is a 15/24 chance a student picked will be female because there are 15 females and 24 total students.

If one female is taken out there will be a 14/23 chance of a female being picked out.  Because there will be 14 females left, and 23 students left.

The chances of both happening are 15/24 * 14/23

So there is a 210/552 = 35/92 chance.

Which value, when placed in the box, would result in a system of equations with infinitely many solutions?
Fantom [35]

Answer:

<h2>If we placed the number 10 in the box, we obtain a system of equations with infinitely many solutions.</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

The given system is

y=2x-5\\2y-4x=a

<em>It's important to know that a system with infinitely many solutions, it's a system that has the same equation</em>, that is, both equation represent the same line, or as some textbooks say, one line is on the other one, so they have inifinitely common solutions.

Having said that, the first thing we should do here is reorder the system

y=2x-5\\2y=4x+a

This way, you can compare better both equations. If you look closer, observe that the second equation is double, that is, it can be obtained by multiplying a factor of 2 to the first one, that is

y=2x-5\\2y=4x-10

So, by multiplying such factor, we obtaine the second equation. Observe that a must be equal to 10, that way the system would have infinitely solutions.

Therefore, the answer is 10.

The manufacturer of a certain brand of aluminum foil claims that the amount of foil on each roll follows a Normal distribution w
lilavasa [31]

Answer:

Given that the manufacturers claim is true, the probability that the sample mean area is 249.6 ft.² or less is 0.42074

Step-by-step explanation:

The manufacturer claims that mean amount of foil on each roll, μ = 250 ft²

The standard deviation of the measured amount of foil per roll, σ = 2 ft.²

The number of rolls tested by the restaurant, n = 10 rolls

The mean measured by the restaurant, \overline x = 249.6

Taking the sample means as individual score, we have;

The z-score, of the sample mean is given as follows;

z=\dfrac{\overline x -\mu }{\sigma }

At \overline x = 249.6, we have;

z = (249.6 - 250)/2 = -0.2

Therefore, the probability for a mean less than or equal to 249.6, we have;

The probability, P = P(z < -0.2) = 0.42074

The probability that the sample mean area is 249.6 ft.² or less given that the manufacturers claim is true, P = 0.42074.
