Answer:

0.339

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that :

Total number of songs = 12

Number of songs to choose = 8

Total number of draws = 8

Selecting 2 of the 4 songs with syprano solos : 4C2

The 6 remaining songs from. The rest:

12-4C8-2 = 8C6

Total possible selections = 12C8

Hence,

probability that the set s/he chooses contains two of the four songs that have soprano solos will be :

(4C2 * 8C6) / 12C8

(6 * 28) / 495

168 / 495

= 0.339

Brilliant_brown [7]

Answer:

1 ; 7 /17

Step-by-step explanation:

17 balls numbered 1 through 17

Picking without replacement :

If the second ball picked = 4

P(first ball has a smaller number)

Numbers less Than = (3, 2, 1)

P(number less than second ball Given 4 is drawn for second ball) :

= (3/17 * 1/16) ÷ (3/17 * 1/16) +) 14/17 * 0)

= (3 / 272) / (3 /272) * 0

= 3 / 272 * 272 / 3

= 1

2.)

(8/17 * 7/8) ÷ (8/17 * 7/8) + (9/17 * 1/17)

7/17 ÷ (7 /17) + 10/17

7 /17 ÷ 17/17

7/17 ÷ 1

7 /17

If -2x+3=7 and 3x+1= 5+y
sertanlavr [38]

Answer: x = -2, y = -10

Step-by-step explanation:

solve for x first in the equation -2x+3=7

-2x+3=7

-2x = 4

x = -2

now plug that x value into the other equation so we can find y

3x+1 = 5+y

3(-2)+1 = 5+y

-6+1 = 5+y

-5=5+y

-10 = y

What is the equation of a line that passes through the point (6, 1) and is perpendicular to the line whose equation is y=−2x−6y=
Mandarinka [93]
Lets get the negative reciprocal of the slope so we get
m  =  \frac{1}{2}
Now the equation that is perpendicular is
y =  \frac{1}{2} x + b
Lets solve for b by plugging in the point (x,y)=(6,1)
1 =  \frac{1}{2} (6) + b \\ 1 = 3 + b \\ 1 - 3 = b \\ b =  - 2
Now plug that into the equation. So the equation of the line that is perpendicular and
passes through the point (6, 1) is
y =  \frac{1}{2} x  - 2
