Answer: 15/91 which is choice B
=================================================================
There are two methods to find this answer.
Method 1) We have 6 girls and 8+6 = 14 students. The probability of picking a girl is 6/14 = 3/7. After the first girl is chosen, we have 5 girls left out of 14-1 = 13 students overall. The probability of picking another girl (assuming the first selection was a girl) is 5/13. Multiply these probabilities: (3/7)*(5/13) = (3*5)/(7*13) = 15/91
--------------------
Method 2) We can use the nCr combination formula. Order does not matter.
We have nCr = 6 C 2 = 15 ways to pick 2 girls. See the attached image below for the steps (figure 1)
Out of nCr = 14 C 2 = 91 ways to pick 2 students. See the attached image below for the steps (figure 2)
So that's another way to get the answer 15/91.
Answer:
(–3, –4)
Step-by-step explanation:
Given pair of linear equation
-4x+y = 8
=> y = 8 + 4x _____(1)
x - 5y = 17 (2)
substituting value of y from equation 1 in equation 2 we have
x - 5(8 + 4x) = 17
=> x - 5*8 -5*4x = 17
=> x - 40 - 20x = 17
=> -40 - 19x = 17
=> -19x = 17+40 = 57
=> x = 57/-19 = -3
Thus, x = -3
y = 8 + 4x = 8 +4(-3) = 8 -12 = -4
Thus, y = -4
Hence, paired solution for given equation is (–3, –4).
well i have to see the equation to know
