A fleet of nine taxis is to be dispatched to three airports in such a way that three go to airport A, five go to airport B, and one goes to airport C. In how many distinct ways can this be accomplished?
2.44) Refer to Exercise 2.43. Assume that taxis are allocated to airports at random.
a) If exactly one of the taxis is in need of repair, what is the probability that it is dispatched to airport C?
b) If exactly three of the taxis are in need of repair, what is the probability that every airport receives one of the taxis requiring repairs?
So, my answer to 2.44a is 1/9. Hopefully this is correct at least :)
For 2.44b, my guess was
(3C1)(1/3)(2/3)2 * (5C1)(1/3)(2/3)4 * 1/3
The solutions manual on chegg (which seems to be riddled with errors) says something completely different. Is my calculation correct?
66
Step-by-step explanation:
pretty sure it's 66 because the two lengths added together is 66
Answer:
<u>£4.20</u>
Step-by-step explanation:
Let :
- cost of 1 kg banana = x
- cost of 1 kg apple = y
Equations formed :
- 4x + 3y = 7.50 [Equation 1]
- 3x + 5y = 8.10 [Equation 2]
Multiply Equation 1 by 5 and Equation 2 by 3 :
- 20x + 15y = 37.50
- 9x + 15y = 24.30
Subtract the newly formed equations :
- 11x = 13.20
- <u>x = 1.20</u>
Finding y :
- 4(1.20) + 3y = 7.50
- 4.80 + 3y = 7.50
- 3y = 2.70
- <u>y = 0.90</u>
Then :
- Cost of 1 kg banana = £1.20
- Cost of 1 kg apple = £0.90
Cost of 2 kg bananas and 2 kg of apples :
- 2(1.20) + 2(0.90)
- 2(2.10)
- <u>£4.20</u>
Answer:
6.5
Step-by-step explanation:
13/2 = 6.5 inches or 6 1/2 inches
#1 slope will equal 2/3
y-intercept will equal 1
#2 slope will equal -2/3
y-intercept will equal -2
