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!

The perimeters of the square and the triangle shown below are equal. What is the value of x?

Rudiy27

Perimeter is the sum of all the sides. So we can set up an equation:

$\sf 3x+1+3x+1+3x+1+3x+1=2x+8+x+8+4x+2$

Now solve for 'x', combine like terms:

When it comes to terms with variables it's just like normal addition but we keep the variable:

$\sf 3x+3x+3x+3x=12x$
$\sf 2x+x+4x=7x$

So we have:

$\sf 12x+1+1+1+1=7x+8+8+2$

Add:

$\sf 12x+4=7x+18$

Subtract 7x to both sides:

$\sf 5x+4=18$

Subtract 4 to both sides:

$\sf 5x=14$

Divide 5 to both sides:

$\boxed{\sf x=2.8}$
