Answer:

a. p(orange) = 5/14

b. p(green) = 3/14

c. p(red) = 1/7  

d. p(brown) = 2/7  

e. p(brown or red) = 3/7

Step-by-step explanation:

1. You have a 14 pencils. Two pencils are red, 5 pencils are orange, 3 pencils are green and 4 pencils are brown.

p(color) = (number of pencils of that color)/(total number of pencils)

p(color) = (number of pencils of that color)/14

a. If a pencil is picked at random, what is the probability that the pencil

will be orange?

p(orange) = 5/14

b. If a pencil is picked at random, what is the probability that the pencil

will be green?

p(green) = 3/14

c. If a pencil is picked at random, what is the probability that the pencil will be red?

p(red) = 2/14 = 1/7

d. If a pencil is picked at random, what is the probability that the pencil

will be brown?

p(brown) = 4/14 = 2/7

e. If a pencil is picked at random, what is the probability that the pencil

will be brown or red?

brown: 4

red: 2

brown or red: 4 + 2

p(brown or red) = 6/14 = 3/7

How many ways can 6 people be chosen and arranged in straight line if there are 8 people to choose from? a. 48.b. 720.c. 20, 160
Ipatiy [6.2K]

Answer:

<h2>C. <em>20,160</em></h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

This question bothers on permutation since we are to select a some people out of a group of people and then arrange in a straight line. If r object are to be arranged in a straight line when selecting them from n pool of objects. This can be done in nPr number of ways.

nPr = n!/(n-r)!

Selection of 6 people out of 8 people can therefore be done in 8C6 number of ways.

8P6 = 8!/(8-6)!

8P6 = 8!/2!

8P6 = 8*7*6*5*4*3*2!/2!

8P6 = 8*7*6*5*4*3

8P6 = 56*360

8P6 = 20,160

<em>Hence this can be done in 20,160 number of ways</em>

<span>2-b=c    -(13-b)=c2-b=-13+b2b=15b=15/2c=2-15/2=4/2-15/2=-11/2 C cannot be negative, so 2-b not >0 and 13-b not <0
Both 2-b and 13-b cannot be both positive and negative, because 2-b=13-b is wrong
-(2-b)=c, 13-b=c,   -2+b=13-b,  2b=15, b=15/2, c=13-b=13-15/2=26/2-15/2=11/2So, finally  b=15/2 and c=11/2Answer is abs(x-15/2)=11/2
