Answer:

0.5798 or 57.98%

Step-by-step explanation:

The total number of ways to form the two teams is the combination of choosing 10 people out of 35 (₃₅C₁₀). The number of possibilities that A and B are both on the 10-people team is given by the combination of choosing 8 people (since two are fixed) out of 33 (₃₃C₈).The number of possibilities that A and B are both on the 25-people team is given by the combination of choosing 10 people out of 33 (₃₃C₈).

Therefore, the probability that two particular people A and B will be on the same team is:

P = \frac{_{33}C_8+_{33}C_{10}}{_{35}C_{10}} \\\\P=\frac{\frac{33!}{(33-8)!8!}+\frac{33!}{(33-10)!10!} }{\frac{35!}{(35-10)!10!}} \\\\P=\frac{69}{119} = 0.5798

The probability is 0.5798 or 57.98%.

At the end of a party, there are 3 pizzas left over. Each person will eat 2/8 of a pizza. How many people will 3 pizza feed?
Georgia [21]

First, convert 3 into a fraction with denominator 8.

(3 pizzas)(8/8 pizzas)=24/8 pizzas

Then, divide 24/8 pizzas by 2/8 pizzas per 1 person.

(24/8 pizzas)(2/8 pizzas/person)

Dividing by a fraction is the same as multiplying by the reciprocal:

(24/8)/(2/8)=(24/8)×(8/2) the 8s cancel and you are left with 24/2=12

3 pizzas will feed 12 people.

Two pounds of cashews cost $19, and 8 pounds cost $76.
Artyom0805 [142]

Answer:

Yes there is a proportinal relationship because when I did 19 divided by 2 I got 9.5 and when I do 76 divided by 8 I got 9.5 so its proportinal. Yes I can find how much money 6 pounds is its 57. And yes I can do it without a table because all you have to do is divide the 19 and 2 and the other 2 numbers and if there the same then its proportinal.
