There are C(5,2) = 10 ways to choose 2 contraband shipments from the 5. There are C(11, 1) = 11 ways to choose a non-contraband shipment from the 11 that are not contraband. Hence there are 10*11 = 110 ways to choose 3 shipments that have 2 contraband shipments among them.
There are C(16,3) = 560 ways to choose 3 shipments from 16. The probability that 2 of those 3 will contain contraband is
110/560 = 11/56 ≈ 19.6%
_____
C(n,k) = n!/(k!(n-k)!)
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
In order to figure out how much money was left in the account after the interest was withdrawn, we have to first find out how much money was initially deposited to earn that amount of interest! The means to find that initial investment is found in the simple interest formula
prt = I, where
p is the initial investement,
r is the interest rate in decimal form,
t is the time in years, and
I is the interest earned. Notice that we have all those things but the p.
Filling in:
p(.0425)(4) = 2380 and
.17p = 2380 so
p = 14000
That means that 14000 was initially invested. If the depositor withdrew the 2380, then
14000 - 2380 is the amount left in the account, namely, $11620
Answer:
b=23 degrees
Step-by-step explanation:
a was 66 degrees so b=23 degrees 180-90-66=23
