Answer:

21/676

Step-by-step explanation:

The total number of letters of the alphabet will be the total outcome which is 26 alphabets.

If consonant numbers are drawn out, the probability of drawing a consonant will be total consonants/total alphabets

Total consonants in the alphabet is 21.

Probability of drawing consonants = 21/26.

Since all the consonants are replaced before drawing a Z, our total outcome will not change i.e it will still be 26.

Probability of drawing a letter Z will be 1/26.

Therefore, the probability of drawing a consonant,replacing it, and then drawing a Z will be;

21/26×1/26

= 21/676

Answer:

c) (40+60+25)/200 or 63%

Step-by-step explanation:

n= 200 students

Did Well on the Midterm and Studied for the Midterm = 75

Did Well on the Midterm and Went Partying = 40

Did Poorly on the Midterm and Studied for the Midterm = 25

Did Poorly on the Midterm and Went Partying = 60

The number of students that did poorly on the midterm or went partying the weekend before the midterm is given by the sum of all students who did poorly to all students who went partying minus the number of students who did Poorly on the Midterm and Went Partying:

$N=(25+60)+(40+60) - 60\\N= 125$
