Answer:
The answer to your question is below
Step-by-step explanation:
Data
Number of employees = 192
See the table
Process
a) To solve this question, consider only the employees that prefer a jacket
Male 77
Female +35
112 employees prefer a jacket
- Calculate the probability
P = 112 / 192
P = 0.58
b) Female and prefers a jacket
P = (54 /192)(35/192)
P = (0.28)(0.18)
P = 0.05
Answer:
<em>Assuming person A and person B are part of the 7 people</em>, there are 10 ways the 7 people can line up if A needs to be first or last and B needs to be in the middle.
Step-by-step explanation:
There are 2 places for A (first, last) and 5 places for B (anywhere but first or last). 2 x 5 = 10.
52 5/8 because 49 + 3 = 52 and 2/8 + 3/8 = 5/8
Answer:
z = -12
Step-by-step explanation:
The given system of equations is:
xy/(x + y) = 1 ...........................(1)
xz/(x + z) = 2...........................(2)
yz/(y + z) = 3...........................(3)
From (1): x + y = xy
=> y = xy - x
y = x(y - 1)
x = y/(y - 1).......................................(4)
From (2): 2(x + z) = xz
=> 2x + 2z = xz
2x = xz - 2z
2x = z(x - 2)
z = 2x/(x - 2) ....................................(5)
From (3): 3(y + z) = yz
=> 3y + 3z = yz
3y = yz - 3z
3y = z(y - 3)
z = 3y/(y - 3)....................................(6)
Comparing (5) and (6)
2x/(x - 2) = 3y/(y - 3)
2x(y - 3) = 3y(x - 2)
2xy - 6x = 3xy - 6y
6(y - x) = xy .................................(7)
But from (1): xy = x + y
Using this in (7), we have
6(y - x) = x + y
6y - y - 6x - x = 0
5y - 7x = 0
5y = 7x
x = 5y/7................................................(8)
Using this in (4)
5y/7 = y/(y - 1)
1/(y - 1) = 5/7
(y - 1) = 7/5
y = 1 + 7/5
y = 12/5..........................................(9)
Using this in (8)
x = 5(12/5)/7 = 12/7 .......................(10)
Using (10) in (5)
z = 2x/(x - 2)
z = 2(12/7) ÷ (12/7 - 2)
= 24/7 ÷ -2/7
= 24/7 × (-7/2)
= -24/2 = -12
z = -12.
