Answer:

a) The probability tree is constructed below

b) the probability that at least two women will be selected is 0.500

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the data in the question;

a) The probability tree is as follows;

                                                 3 men, 3 women

                                                            ↓

           _______________________|________________________

            ↓                             ↓                                  ↓                               ↓

         3 men                    2 men                          1 man                        0 men

      0 women                1 woman                     2 woman                   3 women

b) the probability that at least two women will be selected

p( at least two women would be selected) = P( there are 2 women out of 3 ) + P( there 3 women out of 3

so

p( at least two women would be selected) = C

³C₂ × ³C₁ / ⁶C₃ + ³C₃³C₀ / ⁶C₃  

= 3!/(2!(3-2)!) × 3!/(1!(3-1)!)  / 6!/(3!(6-3)!) + 3!/(3!(3-3)!) × 3!/(0!(3-0)!) / 6!/3!(6-3)!)

= 3 × 3 / 20 + 1 ×  1 / 20

= 9/20 + 1/20

= 0.45 + 0.05

p( at least two women would be selected) = 0.500

Therefore, the probability that at least two women will be selected is 0.500

Zarrin [17]

Answer:

104x + 52

None of the expressions listed are equivalent to 52(2x + 1)

Step-by-step explanation:

52(2x + 1)

Apply the distributive law:  a(b + c) = ab + ac

⇒ 104x + 52

Therefore, 52(2x + 1) = 104x + 52

Graph a right triangle with the two points 4,5 and -4,8​
Katyanochek1 [597]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Please write points using parentheses:  (4, 5) and (-4, 8}.

​

(4, 5) is in the 1st quadrant and (-4, 8} is in the 2nd. Reversing the order of these two points yields (-4, 8) and (4, 5).  From this we can see that while moving from (-4, 8) to (4, 5) involves following a line with negative slope (because the y-coordinate decreases from 8 to 5 as the x-coordinate increases from -4 to +4).  This sloping line is the hypotenuse of a right triangle.  Draw a vertical line segment through (-4, 8) and a horizontal line segment through (4, 5).  This hypotenuse, the vertical line segment and the horizontal line segment are the boundaries of the desired right triangle.
