What is the probability that two people selected at random have the same birthday

1 answer:

8 0

Hello, there!

There are 365 days in a year.

We already know that one person has a birthday on blank day. We will call this person a. That means that there is a 100% chance that they have that birthday.

Because there are 365 days in a year, the odds of person b having a birthday on a certain day is 1/365

Odds of person A having that birthday: 365/365

Odds of person B having that birthday: 1/365

To find the odds of them having the same birthday, we must multiply these odds.

365/365 * 1/365 = 1/365

1/365 = 0.27%

This means that there is a 0.27% chance that both people share the same birthday.

I hope I helped!

Let me know if you need anything else!

1-First let’s list the numbers between 210 to 220, except the even ones since they’re a multiple of 2:

211; 213; 215; 217; 219

Let’s remove 213, and 219 because they’re multiples of 3 (2+1+3=6; 2+1+9=12), 215 is multiple of 5, so let’s remove it.

That leave’s is with 211, and 217.

We can remove 217, because it’s a multiple of 7, leaving us with 211.

2- It’s deductive reasoning, because you started with a more general idea.

3- {-7, -6, -5, -4, -3, -2, -1, 0, 1}

4- {x e R, x>=-2}

5-{-1, 0, 1}

6- {x∣-4≤ x ≤6}

7- [-20, ♾ )

8- On a number line, make a circle around -1, and continue the line to minus infinity.

9- On a number line, make a circle on -3, and continue to minus infinity. Make a ring on 0, and continue to infinity.
