Find the probability of selecting none of the correct six integers in a lottery, where the order in which these integers are selected does not matter, from the positive integers not exceeding the given integers.
a. 40
b. 48
c. 56
d. 64
Answer:
a. 0.35
b. 0.43
c. 0.49
d. 0.54
Step-by-step explanation:
(a)
The objective is to find the probability of selecting none of the correct six integers from the positive integers not exceeding 40.
Let s be the sample space of all integer not exceeding 40.
The total number of ways to select 6 numbers from 40 is .
Let E be the event of selecting none of the correct six integers.
The total number of ways to select the 6 incorrect numbers from 34 numbers is:
Thus, the probability of selecting none of the correct six integers, when the order in which they are selected does rot matter is
The ratio of of number of homework papers to number of exit tickets of Mr Rowley and Ms. Alvera are not equivalent.
<h3>Ratio</h3>
A ratio is a number representing a comparison between two named things. It is also the relative magnitudes of two quantities usually expressed as a quotient.
Mr Rowley:
Homework papers = 16
Tickets to return = 2
Ratio of number of homework papers to number of exit tickets = 16 : 2
= 16 / 2
= 8 / 1
= 8 : 1
Ms Alvera:
Homework papers = 64
Tickets to return = 60
Ratio of number of homework papers to number of exit tickets = 64 : 60
= 64/60
= 16 / 15
= 16 : 15
Therefore, the ratio of of number of homework papers to number of exit tickets of Mr Rowley and Ms. Alvera are not equivalent.
