Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

a )

probability of a computer being ancient = .99

probability of a computer being cutting-edge =.01

probability of two selected  computer being old

= .99 x .99

= .98 or 98%

b )

probability of 5 selected computers being old

= .99 x .99 x .99 x .99 x .99

= .95 or 95%

c )

probability that at least one of the five selected computers is cutting-edge

= 1 - probability of 5 selected computers being old

= 1 - .95

= .05

jason wants to choose 9 players for his track team ,there are 12 players to choose from.how many different teams can jason make?
Schach [20]
He could only make one team, considering that if you do 12-9, you are left with 3, and Jason wants to have his team consisted of 9 players. However, if you make 3 teams with 4 players on each team, or 4 teams with 3 players on each team, you could do that as well.
