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}

Write an equation of the line passing through each of the following pairs of points.
ira [324]

\bf (\stackrel{x_1}{5}~,~\stackrel{y_1}{7})\qquad (\stackrel{x_2}{-6}~,~\stackrel{y_2}{-3}) ~\hfill \stackrel{slope}{m}\implies \cfrac{\stackrel{rise} {\stackrel{y_2}{-3}-\stackrel{y1}{7}}}{\underset{run} {\underset{x_2}{-6}-\underset{x_1}{5}}}\implies \cfrac{-10}{-11}\implies \cfrac{10}{11}

\bf \begin{array}{|c|ll} \cline{1-1} \textit{point-slope form}\\ \cline{1-1} \\ y-y_1=m(x-x_1) \\\\ \cline{1-1} \end{array}\implies y-\stackrel{y_1}{7}=\stackrel{m}{\cfrac{10}{11}}(x-\stackrel{x_1}{5})\implies y-7=\cfrac{10}{11}x-\cfrac{50}{11} \\\\\\ y=\cfrac{10}{11}x-\cfrac{50}{11}+7\implies y=\cfrac{10}{11}x+\cfrac{27}{11}

creativ13 [48]

Answer:

x = 21

Step-by-step explanation:

3x - 71 = 2x - 50

3x - 2x = -50 + 71

x = 21

Check:

3(21) - 71 = 2(21) - 50

63 - 71 = 42 - 50
