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

2 ft
sdas [7]

Answer:

88/7 ft = 12.6 ft (nearest tenth)

Step-by-step explanation:

Circumference of a circle = 2\pir

<u>Radius of inner circle</u>

Given:

  • circumference of inner circle = 22ft
  • \pi = 22/7

⇒ 22 = 2 x (22/7) x r

⇒ r = 3.5

So the radius of the inner circle is 3.5 ft

<u>Radius of outer circle</u>

If the distance between the inner circle and the outer circle is 2 ft, then the radius of the outer circle = 3.5 + 2 = 5.5

<u>Circumference of outer circle</u>

Therefore, circumference of outer circle:

=  2 x (22/7) x 5.5

= 242/7 ft

<u>Difference between circumferences</u>

Difference = outer circle circumference - inner circle circumference

                  = 242/7 - 22

                  = 88/7 ft

                  = 12.6 ft (nearest tenth)

What system of equations does not have the same solution
Effectus [21]

Answer:

2x + y = 4

4x + 2y = 12

Step-by-step explanation:

Equations 2x + y = 4 & 4x + 2y = 12 haven't the same solution.

2x + y = 4...(1) \\ 4x + 2y = 12 \\ 2(2x + y) = 12 \\ 2x + y =  \frac{12}{2}  \\ 2x + y = 6...(2) \\ rhs \: of \: equations \: (1) \: and \: (2) \: are \:  \\ not \: sme.
