So the sum of 17 and a number x means to add them on one side of the equals sign. The other side would be your 20.
17 + x = 20
Sam Paid A Sales-Tax Rate Of 6.5%.
This Is Because 8+5+15=28 + 6.5%= 29.82
So the answer is, x1=-2, x2=9
x^2-7x=18
x^2-7x-18=0
x^2+2x-9x-18=0
x*(x+2)-9(x+2)=0
(x+2)*(x-9)=o
x+2=0
x-9=0
X=-2
X=9
I hope u understand!
Answer: P(odd) = 0.499
Step-by-step explanation:
Given:
Total number of people = 20
Number of men = 12
Number of women = 8
Number of jury to be selected = 6
For the jury to have an odd number of women. it must have either of the three.
1. 1 woman , 5 men
2. 3 women, 3 men
3. 5 women, 1 man
The total possible ways of selecting the 6 people jury is;
N = 20C6 = 20!/6!(20-6)!
N = 38760
The possible ways of selecting;
Case 1 : 1 woman, 5 men
N1 = 8C1 × 12C5
N1 = 8 × 792 = 6336
Case 2 : 3 women , 3 men
N2 = 8C3 × 12C3
N2 = 12320
Case 3 : 5 women, 1 man
N3 = 8C5 × 12C1
N3 = 672
P(Odd) = (N1+N2+N3)/N
P(odd) = (6336+12320+672)/38760
P(odd) = 19328/38760
P(odd) = 0.499
