Answer:

0. 4329

Step by step explanation

Since both groups will have the same number of men, we would guarantee each group consists of three women and three men.

So theprobability is (6, 3)·(6, 3)/(12, 6)=100/231.

Answer:

P(A) = 400/924 = 100/231 or 0.4329

Step-by-step explanation:

The probability that both groups will have the same number of men P(A);

For the two groups to have the same number of men they must include 3 men and 3 women in each group.

P(A) = Number of possible selections of 3 men from 6 and 3 women from 6 into each of the two groups N(S) ÷ total number of possible selections of members into the two groups N(T).

P(A) = N(S)/N(T)

Since order is not important, we will use combination.

N(S) = 6C3 × 6C3 = 20 × 20 = 400

N(T) = 12C6 = 924

P(A) = 400/924 = 100/231 or 0.4329

Given that f(x)= 2x+1 and g(x)= x^2 +2x+1 find (F+g)(2). Find (F.g)(x) find f(x)/g find f(2) +g(-2)?
Pepsi [2]

Answer:

(f+g)(2) = 14

f(g(x)) = 2x^2 + 4x +3

\frac{f(x)}{g(x)} = \frac{2x+1}{x^2+2x+1}

f(2) + g(-2) = 6

Step-by-step explanation:

Function composition and transformation combines functions together using operations such as addition, subtraction, multiplication, division and substitution. To find each, perform the operation with the functions f(x) = 2x+1 and g(x) = x^2 + 2x +1.

(f+g)(x) is the functions f and g added together with 2 substituted for x.

(f+g)(x) = 2x+1 + x^2 +2x + 1 = x^2 + 4x + 2\\(f+g)(2) = 2^2 + 4(2) + 2 = 14

(f·g)(x) is function composition that means f(g(x)) or substitute g(x) into f(x).

f(g(x)) = 2(x^2+2x+1)+1 = 2x^2 + 4x+2 + 1\\f(g(x)) = 2x^2 + 4x +3

f(x) / g(x) is division of the two functions. Division can only occur with polynomials if they share the same factors or things which multiply to create them. If none are present, do not simplify.

\frac{f(x)}{g(x)} = \frac{2x+1}{x^2+2x+1}

This cannot be simplified.

f(2) + g(-2) means find the function value of f at 2 and the function value of g at -2 then add them together.

f(2)+g(-2) = 2(2)+1 + ((-2)^2+2(-2) + 1)\\f(2) + g(-2) = 5 + (4-4+1)\\f(2) + g(-2) = 5 +1 = 6

The probability that a certain football team wins a match is 2/3.Given that the team plays 4 matches, find the probability that
Vlad [161]

Answer:

The probability is 32/81

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that:

The probability that the team wins is p = 2/3

Then the probability of not winning is q = 1 - p = 1 - 2/3 = 1/3

The team plays 4 matches.

We want to find the probability that the team wins 1 more than half of the number of matches played.

So if there are 4 matches, the half is 2 matches

one more than half is then 3 matches.

Let's assume that the team wins the first 3 matches, and does not win the last match.

match one, the team wins with prob: P₁ = 2/3

match two, the team wins with prob: P₂ = 2/3

match three, the team wins with prob: P₃ = 2/3

match four, the team wins with prob: P₄ = 1/3

The joint probability is the product of all the individual probabilities:

P = (2/3)*(2/3)*(2/3)*(1/3)

Now we must also considerate the permutations, we have the cases:

the team does not win the fourth match

the team does not win the third match

the team does not win the second match

the team does not win the first match

So we have just four permutations, then the total probability is:

probability = 4*P = 4*(2/3)*(2/3)*(2/3)*(1/3) = 4*(8/81) = (32/81)
