Step-by-step explanation:

<em>"A total of 12 players consisting 6 male and 6 female badminton players are attending a training camp."</em>

<em />

<em>"(a) During a morning activity of the camp, these 12 players have to randomly group into six pairs of two players each."</em>

<em>"(i) Find the total number of possible ways that these six pairs can be formed."</em>

The order doesn't matter (AB is the same as BA), so use combinations.

For the first pair, there are ₁₂C₂ ways to choose 2 people from 12.

For the second pair, there are ₁₀C₂ ways to choose 2 people from 10.

So on and so forth.  The total number of combinations is:

₁₂C₂ × ₁₀C₂ × ₈C₂ × ₆C₂ × ₄C₂ × ₂C₂

= 66 × 45 × 28 × 15 × 6 × 1

= 7,484,400

<em>"(ii) Find the probability that each pair contains players of the same gender only. Correct your final answer to 4 decimal places."</em>

We need to find the number of ways that 6 boys can be grouped into 3 pairs.  Using the same logic as before:

₆C₂ × ₄C₂ × ₂C₂

= 15 × 6 × 1

= 90

There are 90 ways that 6 boys can be grouped into 3 pairs, which means there's also 90 ways that 6 girls can be grouped into 3 pairs.  So the probability is:

90 × 90 / 7,484,400

= 1 / 924

≈ 0.0011

<em>"(b) During an afternoon activity of the camp, 6 players are randomly selected and 6 one-on-one matches with the coach are to be scheduled.</em>

<em>(i) How many different schedules are possible?"</em>

There are ₁₂C₆ ways that 6 players can be selected from 12.  From there, each possible schedule has a different order of players, so we need to use permutations.

There are 6 options for the first match.  After that, there are 5 options for the second match.  Then 4 options for the third match.  So on and so forth.  So the number of permutations is 6!.

The total number of possible schedules is:

₁₂C₆ × 6!

= 924 × 720

= 665,280

<em>"(ii) Find the probability that the number of selected male players is higher than that of female players given that at most 4 females were selected. Correct your final answer to 4 decimal places."</em>

If at most 4 girls are selected, that means there's either 0, 1, 2, 3, or 4 girls.

If 0 girls are selected, the number of combinations is:

₆C₆ × ₆C₀ = 1 × 1 = 1

If 1 girl is selected, the number of combinations is:

₆C₅ × ₆C₁ = 6 × 6 = 36

If 2 girls are selected, the number of combinations is:

₆C₄ × ₆C₂ = 15 × 15 = 225

If 3 girls are selected, the number of combinations is:

₆C₃ × ₆C₃ = 20 × 20 = 400

If 4 girls are selected, the number of combinations is:

₆C₂ × ₆C₄ = 15 × 15 = 225

The probability that there are more boys than girls is:

(1 + 36 + 225) / (1 + 36 + 225 + 400 + 225)

= 262 / 887

≈ 0.2954

tresset_1 [31]

Answer:

  c) 28°, 76°, 76°

Step-by-step explanation:

The two remote interior angles sum to 152°. Since they are congruent, their measures are 152°/2 = 76°. The adjacent interior angle is the supplement of 152°, so is 180°-152° = 28°.

The interior angles are 28°, 76°, 76°.  . . . .  matches choice C

PLEASE HELP ME. NO PHONY ANSWERS TY, ANSWER IF YOUR 100% RIGHT!
Ksivusya [100]

The relative frequency of female mathematics majors will be 0.5142.

<h3>How to find the relative frequency?</h3>

The proportion of the examined subgroup's value to the overall account is known as relative frequency.

A sample of 317 students at a university is surveyed.

The students are classified according to gender (“female” or “male”).

The table is given below.

Then the relative frequency of female mathematics majors will be

⇒ 36 / (36 + 34)

⇒ 36 / 70

⇒ 0.5142
