Answer with explanation:

Given : Number of men = 4

Number of women = 6

Total people = 6+4=10

Total number of ways to make a committee of five people from 10 persons :-

^{10}C_{4}=\dfrac{10!}{4!(10-4)!}=210

a) Number of ways to make committee that has exactly four women :

^6C_4\times ^4C_1=\dfrac{6!}{4!(6-4)!}\times4=60

The  probability that committee has exactly four women :

\dfrac{60}{210}=\dfrac{2}{7}

b) Number of ways to make committee that has at-least four women :

^6C_4\times ^4C_1+^6C_5=\dfrac{6!}{4!(6-4)!}\times4+6=66

The probability that committee at-least four women :

\dfrac{66}{210}=\dfrac{22}{70}

c) Number of ways that committee has more than 4 women :-

^6C_5\times^4C_0=6

The probability that committee has more than 4 women :-

\dfrac{6}{210}

Now, the  probability that committee has at most four women :-

1-\dfrac{6}{210}=\dfrac{204}{210}=\dfrac{102}{105}

How many solutions does the system have?
Novay_Z [31]

Answer:

none

Step-by-step explanation:

to solve this equation we would say that

let

x + y = 5 .............................. equation 1

x + y = 6 .................................... equation 2

from equation 2

x + y = 6 .................................... equation 2

x = 6 -y...................................... equation 3

substitute for x into equation 1

x + y = 5 .............................. equation 1

6 - y + y = 5

from here this equation cannot be solved further therefore it has no solution.
