Answer:  a) \dfrac{799}{31250}  b) \dfrac{30451}{31250}

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

Number of days in a year = 365

Number of students = 50

Probability that no two students share the same birthday. It means each student has different birthday.  

Probability(no two students share the same birthday)=\dfrac{365-1}{365}\times \dfrac{365-2}{365}........\times \dfrac{365-50}{365}

Probability(no two students share the same birthday)=\dfrac{^{365}P_{50}}{365^{50}}

Probability(no two students share the same birthday)=\dfrac{799}{31250}\approx 0.025568

Probability that at least one of the students has the same birthday as another student in the class is given by

1-P(\text{no student share the same birthday})\\\\=1-\dfrac{799}{31250}\\\\=\dfrac{30451}{31250}=0.974432

I'll give brainliest for the first and correct answer! The perimeter of a triangle is 135. The sides have lengths a, b, and c. T
irina [24]

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  (a, b, c) = (30, 50, 55)

Step-by-step explanation:

If we rewrite the ratio of A to B so it has the same number of ratio units as in the ratio of A to C, we have ...

  A : B = 3 : 5 = 6 : 10

  A : C = 6 : 11

so ...

  A : B : C = 6 : 10 : 11

The total number of ratio units is 27. They stand for 135 real units, so each one stands for 135/27 = 5 real units.

Multiplying the last ratio statement by 5, we find the lengths of each of the sides.

  A : B : C = 6 : 10 : 11 = 30 : 50 : 55

The side lengths are (a, b, c) = (30, 50, 55).

If f(x) = 4x-x², find<br> square root f(3/2)
katrin [286]

Answer:

\frac{\sqrt{15} }{2}

Step-by-step explanation:

\sqrt{f(\frac{3}{2} ) , substitute \frac{3}{2} to x

f(\frac{3}{2} )=4(\frac{3}{2} )-(\frac{3}{2} )^2 = \frac{15}{4} or 3.75

\sqrt{f(\frac{3}{2} )=\sqrt{3.75} = \frac{\sqrt{15} }{2}

slega [8]

Answer:

Answer:

x=\frac{75}2

Step-by-step explanation:

Give letters, as in the attached image.

The triangles ABE and CDE are similars (AAA). In particular AE:CE=BE:DE \rightarrow 46:30=(x+20):x \rightarrow 46x=30(x+20) \rightarrow 23x=15x+300 \rightarrow 8x=300\rightarrow  x=\frac{75}2

Let the retail cost be x and the wholesale cost be y

Step-by-step explanation:

x = y + 0.50y

x = 1.50y

Therefore the retail cost is 1.50 times the wholesale cost.
