Helga [31]

Answer:

The correct option is D. 2/7

Step-by-step explanation:

Consider the provided information.

There are 8 volunteers including Andrew and Karen, 4 people are to be selected at random to organize a charity event.

We need to determine the probability Andrew will be among the 4 volunteers selected and Karen will not.

We want to select Andrew and 3 others but not Karen in the group.

Thus, the number of ways to select 3 member out of 8-2=6

(We subtract 2 from 8 because Andrew is already selected and we don't want Karen to be selected, so subtract 2 from 8.)

The required probability is:

\dfrac{^6C_3}{^8C_4}=\dfrac{\frac{6!}{3!3!}}{\frac{8!}{4!4!}}\\\\\\\dfrac{^6C_3}{^8C_4}=\frac{20}{70}\\\\\\\dfrac{^6C_3}{^8C_4}=\dfrac{2}{7}

Hence, the correct option is D. 2/7

Which number belongs to the solution set of the equation below? x - 7 = 35 A. 22 B. 28 C. 42 D. 41
TiliK225 [7]
Hey there!

To find a solution that would satisfy the value of x, the first thing you must do is to first solve for x. To solve x-7=35, you must add 7 to both sides to isolate x. This should result in x=42.

When you look at the answer choices given, notice that choice C is the solution for x, 42.

Therefore, your answer would be C. 42.

To check if this is correct, you can plug 42 back into the equation x-7=35 to see if you get a true statement:
42-7=35
35=35

Hope this helps!

Write an equation in slope-intercept form that goes through the points (-3, -4) and (3,4).
Marat540 [252]

Answer:

Y = 4/3x + 0

Step-by-step explanation:

(-3,-4) and (3,4) can be plugged in to rise over run.

y 4 -(-4) = 8

x 3 - (-3) = 6

8/6 = 4/3

Plug into slope intercept form

4 = 4/3(3) + b

4 = 12/3 +b

4 = 4 +b

Subtract from both sides

0 = b

Y = 4/3x + 0

The probability of a customer arrival at a grocery service counter in any one second is equal to 0.3. Assume that customers arri
Svetllana [295]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that the probability of a customer arrival at a grocery service counter in any one second is equal to 0.3

Assume that customers arrive in a random stream, so an arrival in any one second is independent of all others.

i.e. X the no of customers arriving is binomial with p = 0.3 and q = 1-0.3 =0.7

a) the probability that the first arrival will occur during the third one-second interval.

= Prob that customer did not arrive in first 2 seconds * prob customer arrive in 3rd sec

= 0.7^2 (0.3)\\= 0.147

b)  the probability that the first arrival will not occur until at least the third one-second interval.

Prob that customer did not arrive in first two seconds *(Prob customer arrives in 3rd or 4th or 5th.....)

=(0.7^2)[0.3+0.7*0.3+0.7^2*0.3+....)\\

The term inside bracket is a geometric infinite progression with common ratio - 0.7 <1

Hence the series converges

Prob =0.7^2 *\frac{0.3}{1-0.7} \\=0.49
