Answer:

P=2/7.

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that sock drawer has two white socks, four brown socks, and two black socks. You randomly pick a sock and put it on your left foot and then pick another sock and put it on your right foot.

Two white socks, four brown socks, and two black socks = 8 socks.

We calculate the number of possible combinations:

$C^8_2=\frac{8!}{2!(8-2)!}=28$

We calculate the number of favorable combinations:

$C_1^2\cdot C^4_1=2\cdot 4=8$

Therefore, the probability is

P=8/28

P=2/7.

Answer:

1 -9/7n

Step-by-step explanation:

$\dfrac{1}{7}-3\left(\dfrac{3}{7}n-\dfrac{2}{7}\right)=\dfrac{1}{7}-\dfrac{3\cdot3}{7}n+\dfrac{3\cdot2}{7}=\dfrac{1}{7}+\dfrac{6}{7}-\dfrac{9}{7}n\\\\=\dfrac{1+6}{7}-\dfrac{9}{7}n=\boxed{1-\dfrac{9}{7}n}$

How to find arc length

FrozenT [24]

A circle is 360° all the way around; therefore, if you divide an arc's degree measure by 360°, you find the fraction of the circle's circumference that the arc makes up. Then, if you multiply the length all the way around the circle (the circle's circumference) by that fraction, you get the length along the arc.

A sample of 100 people is classified by gender (male/female) and by whether they are registered voters. The sample consists of 8

uysha [10]

Answer:

12

Step-by-step explanation:

Given :

Male Female Total

Registered 60

Non registered 40

Total 20 80

Solution :

N= 100

Formula of expected frequency = $E_{ij}=\frac{T_i \times T_j}{N}$

$E_{ij}$ = expected frequency for the ith row/jth columm.

$T_i$ = total in the ith row

$T_j$ = total in the jth column

N = table grand total.

So, using formula $E_{11}=\frac{T_1 \times T_1}{100}$

$E_{11}=\frac{60 \times 20}{100}$

$E_{11}=12$

$E_{12}=\frac{T_1 \times T_2}{100}$

$E_{12}=\frac{60 \times 80}{100}$

$E_{12}=48$

$E_{21}=\frac{T_2 \times T_1}{100}$

$E_{21}=\frac{40 \times 20}{100}$

$E_{21}=8$

$E_{22}=\frac{T_2 \times T_2}{100}$

$E_{22]=\frac{80 \times 40}{100}$

$E_{22}=32$

Expected frequency table

Male Female Total

Registered 12 48 60

Non registered 8 32 40

Total 20 80

So, the expected frequency for males who are registered voters are $E_{11}=12$
