There are 7 women and 9 men if 2 are promoted what is the probability they are both men

Mathematics
1 answer:
Artist 52 [7]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

3/10

Step-by-step explanation:

Total number of employees = 7 + 9 = 16

Probability of a man being chosen first to be promoted = 9/16

Probability of the second choice is still a man for promotion = 8/15

Why 8/15?

The number of men left who are eligible for promotion after the 1st man was chosen for promotion is 9 - 1 = 8

The total number of people left after the 1st person is chosen for promotion that are eligible for promotion is 16 - 1 = 15

Hence Probability of choosing 2 men for promotion = 9/16 x 8/15 = 3/10

What is the discriminant of the polynomial 4x^2 - 20 x + 25 ?
Zarrin [17]

Hello from MrBillDoesMath!

Answer:

0

Discussion:

For the quadratic ax^2 + b^x + c, the discriminant is b^2 - 4ac. In our case, the discriminant is

(-20)^2 - 4 (4)(25) =

400      - 4 (100)   =

0

(This means the polynomial has a duplicate root. In fact it factors as          (2x-5)^2       ).


Thank you,

MrB

ICE Princess25 [194]

Answer:

60°

Step-by-step explanation:

Total angle measurement for a triangle is 180°

Equilateral triangle measures 60 on all angles. (60 + 60 + 60 = 180°)

This triangle is equilateral so it's angle is 60°.

Why is it equilateral? Because all sides of the triangle are equal (10 on all sides).

Hope this helps
