Answer:

133/143

Step-by-step explanation:

Let S be the sample space

Let E be the event of selecting three committee partners with at least one junior partner.

Partners in the law firm include:

Senior partners = 6

Junior partners = 7

Total partners = 13

n(S) = number of ways of selecting 3 partners from 13 = 13C3

n(S) = 13C3 = 13!/(10!3!) = (13x12x11)/(3x2x1) = 286

To get n(E) i.e least 1 junior partner in the selected committee, we may have:

(2 senior and 1 junior) or ( 1 senior and 2 junior) or (3 junior).

Therefore, the required number of way is given below:

= (6C2 x 7C1) + (6C1 x 7C2) + 7C3

= [(6x5)/2 x 7] + [6 x (7x6)/2] + [(7x6x5)/(3x2)]

= 105 + 126 + 35

n(E) = 266

Therefore, the probability P(E) that at least one of the junior partners is on the​ committee is given below:

P(E) = n(E) /n(S)

P(E) = 266/286

P(E) = 133/143

Chris is behind in 9 classes of school he has a total time of 25 days to make up 75 hours and 4 minutes worth of late work how m
Vlad1618 [11]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

First, convert the 4 mins into hours by dividing by 60;

4/60 =0.067

Add 0.067 to 75 hrs to get the total = 75+0.067 = 75.067

Therefore the total time Chris needs to make up for is 75.067 hrs

Total number of days Chris has = 25

Next,

IF in 25 days = he can cover 75.067hrs

then in 1 day he will cover = (1 * 75.067)/ 25

        = 3.002

Therefore, Chris needs to do 3hrs each day to be able to complete the deadline

WITCHER [35]

Answer:

a) The number of students in your school.      

Step-by-step explanation:

Quantitative and Qualitative:

  • The data that can be expressed with the help of numerical are know as quantitative variable.
  • Qualitative variable is the non parametric variable and numerical does not describe the data

Discrete and Continuous data:

  • Discrete data are expressed in whole number and cannot take all the values within an interval.
  • Continuous variable can be expressed in decimals and can take any value within an interval.

a) The number of students in your school.

Since whole numbers are used to express number of children it is a discrete and continuous data.

b) The different colors of the eyes of your classmates.

These are qualitative data and numerical are not used to express them.

c) The height of all the people in your neighborhood.

These are continuous data as height is measured and can be expressed in decimals.

d) The acceleration of your car as you drive to school.

These are continuous data as acceleration is measured and can be expressed in decimals.
