Answer:

P = 10/171

P = 0.058

The probability that both fish selected are Catfish is 0.0058

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

The tank contains;

Algae eaters = 8

Catfish = 5

Tilapia fish = 6

Total number of fish = 8+5+6= 19

To determine the probability that both fish selected are Catfish P;

P = 5/19 × 4/18

( The number of the total number of fishes, and Catfish reduce by one after each selection because it is selected without replacement)

P = 10/171

P = 0.058

12. Find the area lying above the x - axis and below the parabolic curve y = 4x - x2.
Margarita [4]
First we find the zeroes so we don't take the integral of negative bits

4x-x²
x(4-x)
zeroes at x=0 and x=4
it opens down
so the part we are interested in is the bit between x=0 and x=4

\int\limits^4_0 {4x-x^2} \, dx =[2x^2- \frac{1}{3}x^3]^4_0=(32- \frac{64}{3})-(0)=  10.6666666666 or aout 10 and 2/3
