the ages of two friends Sunaina and Tanish are differ by 2 years sunaina's father is twice as old as Sunaina and Tanisha is twic
nikklg [1K]

Let S represent Sunaina's age.

Let T represent Tanish's age.

So 2S - T/2 = 40, 4S - T = 80.

Either S - T = 2 or T - S = 2. Let's try both cases.

Either 3S = 78 or 3S = 82.

Since 82 is not a multiple of 3, S = 26.

So Sunaina is 26 years old and Tanish is 24 years old.

What is the probability of randomly selecting a month pf year and not getting a month that ends in y?
Umnica [9.8K]

Answer:

2/3

Step-by-step explanation:

The months whose names end in 'y' include Jan, Feb, May, Jul.  The probability of randomly selecting a month whose name ends in 'y' is 4/12 (remember that there are 12 months in a year), or 1/3.

Thus, the probability of selecting a month whose name does NOT end in 'y' is 8/12, or 2/3.  Note that this event is the 'complement' of the first event:  

P(name does not end in 'y') = 1 - P(name does not end in 'y') = 1 - 1/3 = 2/3
