Mathematics

Step-by-step explanation:

The selection of r objects out of n is done in

many ways.

The total number of selections 10 that we can make from 6+7=13 students is  

thus, the sample space of the experiment is 286

A.  

"The probability that a randomly chosen team includes all 6 girls in the class."

total number of group of 10 which include all girls is C(7, 4), because the girls are fixed, and the remaining 4 is to be completed from the 7 boys, which can be done in C(7, 4) many ways.

P(all 6 girls chosen)=35/286=0.12

B.

"The probability that a randomly chosen team has 3 girls and 7 boys."

with the same logic as in A, the number of groups were all 7 boys are in, is  

so the probability is 20/286=0.07

C.

"The probability that a randomly chosen team has either 4 or 6 boys."

case 1: the team has 4 boys and 6 girls

this was already calculated in part A, it is 0.12.

case 2, the team has 6 boys and 4 girls.

there C(7, 6)*C(6, 4) ,many ways of doing this, because any selection of the boys which can be done in C(7, 6) ways, can be combined with any selection of the girls.  

the probability is 105/286=0.367

since  case 1 and case 2 are disjoint, that is either one or the other happen, then we add the probabilities:

0.12+0.367=0.487 (approximately = 0.49)

D.

"The probability that a randomly chosen team has 5 girls and 5 boys."

selecting 5 boys and 5 girls can be done in  

many ways,

so the probability is 126/286=0.44

Which statement best describes the association between variable X and variable Y? Question 1 options: perfect negative associati
polet [3.4K]
The statement which best describes the association between the variables X and Y is the <em>moderate positive association</em>. It is observable that the values of X and Y are increasing, however, not in a perfect manner as there are some minor deviations. But nonetheless, the direction is clear and the values are close to each other so they have a moderate positive association.

Marcos purchased a sail boat for $56,900. He anticipates each year the boat will decrease in value by 8.1% from the previous yea
Varvara68 [4.7K]

Answer: 56,900\left( 0.919\right)^x

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Marcos purchased a sailboat for \$56,900

Each year the boat will decrease in value by 8.1\%

After 1 year it is

\Rightarrow 56,900-56,900\times 0.081\\\Rightarrow 56,900\left( 1-0.081\right)\\

after another year it becomes

\Rightarrow 56,900\left( 1-0.081\right)-56,900\left( 1-0.081\right)\times 0.081\\\Rightarrow 56,900\left( 1-0.081\right)\cdot \left( 1-0.081\right)\\\Rightarrow 56,900\left( 1-0.081\right)^2

After x years it is

\Rightarrow 56,900\left( 1-0.081\right)^x

\Rightarrow 56,900\left( 0.919\right)^x
