A committee consists of eight women and twelve men. Three committee members will be chosen as officers. What is the probability

MariettaO [177]

Answer:

The probability that all the officers are women is $\frac{56}{1140}$

Explanation:

Given a committee consisting of 8 women and 12 men, from which 3 committee members are to be chosen as officers from a committee.

The total number of committee members is 8 + 12 = 20 members

C(n,r) = $\frac{n!}{r!(n-r)!}$ which represents the number of combinations of taking r objects out of n.

The probability that all the officers are women = C(8,3) / C(20,3)

= $\frac{8!}{3!(8-3)!} / \frac{20!}{3!(20-3)!}$

= $\frac{8!}{3!5!} /\frac{20!}{3!17!}$

= $\frac{56}{1140}$

Therefore the probability that all the officers are women is $\frac{56}{1140}$
