449 and 451

x = smaller integer
the difference between 2 consecutive odd integers is 2
x + x + 2 = 900
2x + 2 = 900
-2 -2
2x = 898
/2 /2
x = 449

449 + 2 = 451 (greater integer)

The mathematics department of a college has 15 male professors, 9 female professors, 6 male teaching assistants, and 12 female t

Vesnalui [34]

Given:

The number of male professors = 15.

The number of female professors = 9.

The number of male teaching assistants = 6.

The number of female teaching assistants = 12.

A person is selected randomly from the group.

Required:

We need to find the probability that the selected person is a professor or a male.

Explanation:

The total number of people in the group = 15+9+6+12 = 42

n(S) =The total number of people in the group

$n(S)=42$

Let A be the event that the selected person is a professor or a male.

The number of people who are professors or male = 15+9+6 = 30

n(A)= The number of people who are professors or male.

$n(A)=30$

Let P(A) be the probability that the selected person is a professor or a male.

$P(A)=\frac{n(A)}{n(S)}$ $P(A)=\frac{30}{42}$ $P(A)=\frac{15}{21}=\frac{5}{7}$

Final answer:

The probability that the selected person is a professor or a male is 5/7.

WILL GIVE BRAINLIEST TO 1ST<br> 4x+188=6x+216

Ulleksa [173]

Answer:

x = -14

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's solve your equation step-by-step.

4x + 188 = 6x +216

Subtract 6x from both sides:

4x + 188 - 6x = 6x + 216 - 6x

-2x + 188 = 216

Subtract 188 from both sides:

-2x + 188 - 188 = 216 - 188

-2x = 28

Divide both sides by two:

$\frac{-2x}{-2}=\frac{28}{-2}$

$x = -14$
