This is impossible. The answer is 0.2. Tell your teacher about the impossible problem.

There are 25 players in a ping-pong tournament. Each player plays every other player exactly once. How many games will be played

Aleonysh [2.5K]

This is a round robin style tournament. Given that there are 25 people, and order doesn't matter meaning that the combination AB is equivalent to BA you must use the choose formula.

Thus the answer should be 25C2 or
<em>25! / [(25-2)! * 2!] = 300</em>

3.6.PS-8 If the simple interest on $5,000 for 9 years is $2,700, then what is the interest rate? The rate is %. .

Arada [10]

$~~~~~~ \textit{Simple Interest Earned}\\\\I = Prt\qquad\begin{cases}I=\textit{interest earned}\dotfill &\$2700\\P=\textit{original amount deposited}\dotfill & \$5000\\r=rate\to r\%\to \frac{r}{100}\dotfill &0.0r\\t=years\dotfill &9\end{cases}\\\\\\2700=(5000)(0.0r)(9)\implies 2700=45000(0.0r)\implies \cfrac{2700}{45000}=0.0r\\\\\\\cfrac{3}{50} = 0.0r\implies \cfrac{3}{50} = \cfrac{r}{100}\implies \cfrac{3\cdot 100}{50}=r\implies 6 = \stackrel{\%}{r}$

Find the probability that a randomly generated bit string of length 10 does not contain a 0 if bits are independent and if a 0 b

jeka94

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

From the given information; Let's assume that R should represent the set of all possible outcomes generated from a bit string of length 10 .

So; as each place is fitted with either 0 or 1

$\mathbf{|R|= 2^{10}}$

Similarly; the event E signifies the randomly generated bit string of length 10 does not contain a 0

Now;

if a 0 bit and a 1 bit are equally likely

The probability that a randomly generated bit string of length 10 does not contain a 0 if bits are independent and if a 0 bit and a 1 bit are equally likely is;

$\mathbf{P(E) = \dfrac{|E|}{|R|}}$
