s were rented?

1 answer:

8 0

$\bf \cfrac{comedie}{action}\qquad 8:7\qquad \cfrac{8}{7}\qquad \qquad \cfrac{32}{a}=\cfrac{8}{7}\implies \cfrac{32\cdot 7}{8}=\stackrel{action}{a}$

I split it into parts. The small rectangle sticking out is 2x3 which is a 6 and the big rectangle 4x8 which is 32. The triangle is 8x2/2 which is 8. 6+32+8 = 46

TV studio has brought in 9 boy kittens and 6 girl kittens for a cat food commercial. The director is going to choose 9 of these

Amanda [17]

Answer:

probability = 0.2517

Step-by-step explanation:

given data

boy kittens = 9

girl kittens = 6

choose kittens at random = 9

solution

total kitten are = 9 + 6 = 15

first we get here total no of probability that is

n(s) = 15 C 9

n(s) = $\frac{15!}{9!(15-9)!}$

n(s) =5005

and

total way to chose 5 boy kittens is = 9 C 3

n(3) = $\frac{9!}{3!(9-3)!}$

n(3) = 84

and

total way to chose 4 girl kittens is = 6 C 4

n(4) = $\frac{6!}{4!(6-4)!}$

n(4) = 15

total way to chose 5 boy kittens and 4 girl kittens is

total way = 84 ×15 = 1260

so probability that the director chooses 5 boy kittens and 4 girl kittens is

probability = $\frac{1260}{5005}$

probability = 0.2517
