You need at least nine decimal places on this problem. You may want to use fractions instead. There are 8 candidates for a posit

ion. The candidates are interviewed independently by each member of a committee that has 5 people on it. A candidate will be hired if she is chosen by at least 4 members of the committee. In reality, the committee members cannot really distinguish among the candidates and just choose at random with no biases. What is the probability that a candidate will be selected with a unanimous vote (all committee members choose the same person)? 5/16 What is the probability that a candidate will be selected with only one dissenting vote (all but one committee members choose the same person)? What is the probability that a candidate will be selected?

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:What is the probability that a candidate will be selected with a

unanimous vote (all committee members choose the same

person)?

=6/(6^5)

=1/(6^4.)

2 What is the probability that a candidate will be selected with only

one dissenting vote (all but one committee members choose the

same person)?

=5 ∗ (1/6)^4 ∗ (5/6) ∗ 6.

=25/(6^4)

3 What is the probability that a candidate will be selected?

=5 ∗ (1/6)^4 ∗ (5/6) ∗ 6 +1/(6^4)

=25/(6^4) +1/(6^4)

=(25+1)/(6^4)

=26/(6^4)

A triangle has a hypotenuse of 153 centimeters and a leg of 72 centimeters what is the length of the other leg
Inga [223]
Pythagorean theorem = \sqrt{a^{2} + b^2 +c^2 }
Since you only have a^{2} and c^2 you change the equation to \sqrt{c^2 - a^2 = b^2}
Giving you \sqrt{153^2 - 72^2 = 135

Which of the following could be the sides of a right triangle? Check all that apply.
VLD [36.1K]
A. & D. are the correct answers

To answer this, you square the first 2 numbers in the sequence, and then add them together. You then square the 3rd number and put it equal to the first numbers that you added together. If the two sides equal each other, it is correct!

Ex.:

10, 24, 26

10^2 + 24^2 = 26^2
100 + 576 = 676
676 = 676

18, 24, 30

18^2 + 24^2 = 30^2
324 + 576 = 900
900 = 900
