Answer: The required probability is \dfrac{10}{21}

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

Divisors of 64= 1,2,4,8,16,32,64

Sum would be less than 32

Since it has 7 divisors in total.

If we select any two distinct divisors from first five divisors, the sum will always less than 32.

So, the probability that their sum will be less than 32 is given by

\dfrac{^5C_2}{^7C_2}\\\\=\dfrac{10}{21}

Hence, the required probability is \dfrac{10}{21}

Three-sevenths of a number is 21. Find the number
ruslelena [56]
You can set up a proportion that looks like 3/7 = x/21. X being the number that you are trying to find. Seven goes into 21 three times. So multiply 3 also by that 3 to get 9. So three sevenths of twenty-one is 9.

c) 200 people are asked about three brands of beverages Coffee, Tea and Chocolate. 36 like Coffee only, 46 like Coffee but not T
Agata [3.3K]

The number of people who like black coffee i) 52

Number of the people who don't like any of the drinks ii) 66

<h3>What is probability?</h3>

Probability is defined as the ratio of the number of favorable outcomes to the total number of outcomes in other words the probability is the number that shows the happening of the event.

This sort of problem is usually solved using some sort of table or Venn diagram. We have used a table in the attachment such that each of the cells in the grid represents one of the 8 possible combinations of coffee, tea, or chocolate.

The numbers in black are given directly by the problem statement. The numbers in blue are calculated from the numbers in black and one of the other given numbers in the problem statement. The numbers in red are calculated so the totals work out correctly.

The cells shaded blue-gray are "one and only one" of the drinks. The cell-shaded purple-gray is "don't like any".

i) black coffee

We assume that any form of "coffee" is "black coffee." The problem statement tells us that 52 people like coffee.

ii) none

The last number we calculated is the number who like none of the drinks: 66. This brings the total of non-coffee drinkers to 148.

Additional comment

As noted above, the colors more or less indicate the order of the calculations. We started with 36 who like coffee only, and 46 who like coffee and not tea. That means 46-36=10 like coffee and chocolate, but not tea.

Since 16 like coffee and chocolate, that leaves 16-10=6 who like coffee and tea and chocolate (all three).

96 like chocolate, but 16 of those like chocolate and tea. The other 80 like chocolate, but not tea.

46+16=52, so there must be 0 who like coffee and tea, but not chocolate.

The number who like only one is 108. We already have 36 that are coffee only, 80-10 = 70 that are chocolate only, so there must be 108 -70 -36 = 2 who like a tea only.

Now, we can finish filling the top row of the table and the totals in the bottom row.

Therefore the number of people who like black coffee i) 52 , Number of the people who don't like any of the drinks ii) 66

Which of the following is not a Pythagorean triple?. . A.. 28, 45, 53. B.. 16, 63, 65. C.. 13, 84, 85. D.. 11, 61, 62.
Anna11 [10]
A set of numbers is said to be Pythagorean triple if the sum of the squares of the lesser numbers equal the square of the remaining number,

A. 28² + 45² = 2809    ;  53² = 2809     ; EQUAL
B. 16² + 63² = 4225    ;  65²= 4225      ; EQUAL
C. 13² + 84² = 7225    ;  85² = 7225     ; EQUAL
D. 11² + 61² = 3842    ;   62² = 3844     ; NOT EQUAL

The answer is letter D.
