Answer:

Probability to pick 4 tiles which spell CATS will be \frac{1}{70}.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have 8 scrabble tiles A, B, C, D, R, S, T, U in a bag.

Probability to pick 4 tiles C, T, A, and S out of 8 tiles = ^{8}C_{4}

= \frac{8!}{4!(8-4)!}

= \frac{8!}{4!\times 4!}

= \frac{8\times 7\times 6\times 5\times4!}{4!\times 4!}

= \frac{1680}{24}

= 70

So we can choose C, T, A and S tiles in 70 different ways but the probability to pick 4 tiles which spell CATS will be

= \frac{1}{70}

Therefore, probability to pick 4 tiles which spell CATS will be \frac{1}{70}.

Nimfa-mama [501]
Answer: 50 Pounds

Explanation: First we need to find out how much 0.5% of 1250 is. 0.5% of 1250 is 6.25£. Since that’s per month, and Aaron pays interest for 8 months, we multiply by 8. So 6.25 times 8 is 50.

Answer:

Check the explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

Following table shows the calculations:

Delta, X      Southwest , Y            X^2              Y^2                      XY

45.96               38.76               2112.3216     1502.3376          1781.4096

46.8                 45.41                2190.24         2062.0681        2125.188

47.93                15.7                 2297.2849      246.49            752.501

51.78                49.58              2681.1684      2458.1764        2567.2524

52.17                44.34              2721.7089      1966.0356        2313.2178

47.36                18                   2242.9696            324               852.48

Total 292       211.79               14245.6934      8559.1077      10392.0488

Sample size: n =6

Now

S_{yy}=\sum y^{2}-\frac{\left (\sum y \right )^{2}}{n}=1083.27

S_{xx}=\sum x^{2}-\frac{\left (\sum x \right )^{2}}{n}=35.03

S_{xy}=\sum xy-\frac{\left (\sum x \right )\left (\sum y \right )}{n}=84.94

The coefficient of correlation is :

r=\frac{S_{xy}}{\sqrt{S_{xx}S_{yy}}}=0.436
