Answer:

P= 0.0039

Step-by-step explanation:

From Exercise we have 12 women and 4 men.

We calculate the number of combinations of 16 people, to be divided into 4 teams of 4 people each.

{16}_C_{4} · {12}_C_{4} · {8}_C_{4} =

=\frac{16!}{4!·(16-4)!} · \frac{12!}{4!·(12-4)!}· \frac{8!}{4!·(8-4)!}

=1820 · 495 ·  105

=94594500

The number of favorable combinations is

{12}_C_{3} · {9}_C_{3} · {6}_C_{3} =

=\frac{12!}{3!·(12-3)!} · \frac{9!}{3!·(9-3)!}· \frac{6!}{3!·(6-3)!}

=220 · 84 ·  20

=369600

The  probability is 369600/94594500=16/4095=0.0039

P= 0.0039

If x / 2y = 0.4 , A / 5B = 0.25 Then A + y / 5 =….... ​
shusha [124]

Answer:

\frac{x}{2y}  =  \frac{4}{10}  \\ 8y = 10x \\ y =  \frac{10x}{8} -  -  -  -  - 1  \\  \\  \frac{a}{5b}  =  \frac{25}{100}  \\  \frac{a}{5b}  =  \frac{1}{4}  \\ 4a = 5b \\ a =  \frac{5b}{4}  -  -  - 2 \\  \\ so \:  \:  \frac{a + y}{5}  \\  = (a + y) \times  \frac{1}{5}  \\  = ( \frac{5b}{4}  +  \frac{5x}{4} ) \times  \frac{1}{5}  \\  =  \frac{5b + 5x}{4}  \times  \frac{1}{5}  \\  =  \frac{5(b + x)}{4}  \times  \frac{1}{5}  \\  =  \frac{b + x}{4}  \\  \\ so \:  \:  \:  \frac{a + y}{5}  =  \frac{b + x}{4}

Jennifer is saving money to buy a bike. The bike costs $223. She has "$128" saved, and each week she adds $19 to her savings.
castortr0y [4]

Answer: it would take her 5 weeks

You have to subtract 128 from 223 to find out how much money is left to earn. Which is 95. Then you must divide 95 divided by 19 because she get $19 each week and the answer is 5
