Answer:

The probability is \frac{16}{43}

Step-by-step explanation:

The psychology class has 9 freshman male, 15 freshman females, 8 sophomore male and 12 sophomore female.

Total population constitution of the class=

17 males and 27 females and 44 students in total.

If on selecting on the first attempt, a male has been picked up then the number of males for the picking up in the second attempt has to decrease by one.

Also, the total number of students from which it has to be selected also decreases by 1, because one child has already been selected.

Therefore for Second Attempt, Total 43 students and 16 males.

Probability=\frac{No.OfFavorableOutcomes}{TotalNo.OfOutcomes}

Probability=\frac{16}{43}

Is the statement​ "Two fundamental questions about a linear system involve existence and​ uniqueness" true or​ false? Explain.
sweet [91]

Answer:

True

Explanation:

First of all its necessary remember that a linear system is a compound of multiple equations that involve variables.

<h2>Existence:</h2>

Depending on the number of equations and the number of variables, you could determine if the linear system has a solution or not. There are 3 possibilities:

  1. If the linear system has more equations than variables could exist infinite answers.
  2. If the linear system has more variables than equations, it is considered an undetermined system and you neer more information to solve it.
  3. If the linear system has the same number of equations and variables, the system is consistent and has at least one solution.
<h2>Uniqueness:</h2>

If possibility 3 is presented, it becomes necessary know if its the only one solution or exists more than one solution.

Which relationship describes angles 1 and 2?
MissTica
<span>1) supplementary angles => sum of angles' measure is 180°


Two lines intersecting creating four angles with the left obtuse angle labeled one and the acute angle to the right labeled two

= > angle 1 +  angle 2 = 180°

Then those two match.


2) complementary angles => sum of the two angles = 90°

Two lines intersecting in a right angle with a square indicating a right angle in quadrant one and a ray splitting quadrant two with a two labeling the left angle and one labeling the angle on the right

=> angle 2 + angle 1 = 90°

Then those two match

3) vertical angles

Two parallel horizontal lines intersected by a vertical line with a square indicating a right angle in quadrant one of the top line and a one labeling the angle in quadrant two and two labeling quadrant four of the top line

Those two matches because the angle label 1 and the angle label 2 are vertical angles as per the definittion.

4) adjacent angles

Two lines intersecting in a V shape with the left angle of one hundred fifty seven degrees and a bottom angle of X degrees

Those two match becasue the angle of 157° and the angle of X° are adjacent.

What are the intercepts of the equation <br> 2x+3/2y+3z=6
Mrrafil [7]
X-intercept => 2x = 6 => x = 3
x-intercept is 3.

y-intercept => 3/2y = 6 => y = 4
y-intercept is 4.

z-intercept => 3z = 6 => z = 2
z-intercept is 2.
