Total no. of people = 12
Let,
the no. of women be "x"
Also, the question says, there were 4 more man than women.
So, total no. of men = 4 + x

Now,
according to the question,
x + (4 + x) = 12
      2x + 4 = 12
            2x = 12 - 4
              x = 8 / 2
              x = 4

Now,
x + 4 = (4) + 4
        = 8

So, there were 4 women and 8 men in the jury

x-the \ number \ of \ women \\ x+4 -the \ number \ of \ men \\\\ x+x+4=12 \\\\ 2x+4=12 \\\\ 2x=12-4 \\\\ 2x=8 \\\\ \boxed{x=\frac{8}{2}=4 \ women} \\\\ x+4= \\\\ = 4+4\to\boxed{8 \ men}

A student takes an exam containing 1414 multiple choice questions. The probability of choosing a correct answer by knowledgeable
Readme [11.4K]

Answer:

0.0082 = 0.82% probability that he will pass

Step-by-step explanation:

For each question, there are only two possible outcomes. Either the students guesses the correct answer, or he guesses the wrong answer. The probability of guessing the correct answer for a question is independent of other questions. So we use the binomial probability distribution to solve this question.

Binomial probability distribution

The binomial probability is the probability of exactly x successes on n repeated trials, and X can only have two outcomes.

P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}

In which C_{n,x} is the number of different combinations of x objects from a set of n elements, given by the following formula.

C_{n,x} = \frac{n!}{x!(n-x)!}

And p is the probability of X happening.

In this problem we have that:

n = 14, p = 0.3.

If the student makes knowledgeable guesses, what is the probability that he will pass?

He needs to guess at least 9 answers correctly. So

P(X \geq 9) = P(X = 9) + P(X = 10) + P(X = 11) + P(X = 12) + P(X = 13) + P(X = 14)

P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}

P(X = 9) = C_{14,9}.(0.3)^{9}.(0.7)^{5} = 0.0066

P(X = 10) = C_{14,10}.(0.3)^{10}.(0.7)^{4} = 0.0014

P(X = 11) = C_{14,11}.(0.3)^{11}.(0.7)^{3} = 0.0002

P(X = 12) = C_{14,12}.(0.3)^{12}.(0.7)^{2} = 0.000024

P(X = 13) = C_{14,13}.(0.3)^{13}.(0.7)^{1} = 0.000002

P(X = 14) = C_{14,14}.(0.3)^{14}.(0.7)^{0} \cong 0

P(X \geq 9) = P(X = 9) + P(X = 10) + P(X = 11) + P(X = 12) + P(X = 13) + P(X = 14) = 0.0066 + 0.0014 + 0.0002 + 0.000024 + 0.000002 = 0.0082

0.0082 = 0.82% probability that he will pass

Semenov [28]

If the slope of AB = CD and BC = AD it's a parallelogram:

Slope of AB = 6+1 / -9+5 = -7/4

CD = -2-5 / 3+1 = -74

These are equal.

BC = 5-6 / -1 +9 = -1/8

AD = -2 +1 / 3+5 = -1/8

These are also equal so it is a parallelogram.

Now to find if the diagonals are perpendicular find the slope of the perpensicular points:

AC = 5 +1 / -1 +5 = 6/4 = 3/2

BD = 6+2 / -9 -3 = 8/-12 = -2/3

Because BD is the reciprocal of AC, this means they are perpendicular.

And because AB is not perpendicular to AD ( AB and AD are not reciprocals) it is a rhombus.
