Answer:

There is a 0.57% probability that a randomly selected nanny who was placed during the last year is a male nanny (a "mannie").

Step-by-step explanation:

A probability is the number of desired outcomes divided by the number of total outcomes.

In this problem, we have that:

Desired outcomes:

The number of male nannies selected. 24 of the nannies placed were men. So the number of desired outcomes is 24.

Total outcomes:

The number of nannies selected. 4,176 nannies were placed in a job in a given year. So the number of total outcomes 4176.

Find the probability that a randomly selected nanny who was placed during the last year is a male nanny (a "mannie").

P = \frac{24}{4176} = 0.0057

There is a 0.57% probability that a randomly selected nanny who was placed during the last year is a male nanny (a "mannie").

Answer:

0.00597

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

Total number of cards = 52,

In which flush cards = 20,

Also, the number of spade flush cards = 5,

Since,

\text{Probability}=\frac{\text{Favourable outcomes}}{\text{Total outcomes}}

Thus, the probability of a hand containing a spade flush, if each player has 5 cards

=\frac{\text{Ways of selecting a spade flush card}}{\text{Total ways of selecting five cards}}

=\frac{^{20}C_5}{^{52}C_5}

=\frac{\frac{20!}{5!15!}}{\frac{52!}{5!47!}}

=\frac{15504}{2598960}

= 0.00597

What are the solutions 2x^2 +7x=4
elena55 [62]
So your equation is 2x^{2} +7x = 4. You need to simplify this answer.
So first off, do 2x times 2x.
2 x 2 = 4.
Your equation is now 4x + 7x = 4.
You're already off to a great start, so now let's add 4x + 7x. It is 11x.
Your equation is almost done! It's 11x = 4 right now.
Divide both sides by 11, and your answer is...
0.36363636 and so on, or you can round to the nearest hundreth, in which it will be

0.36.

I hope I helped!
