Answer:
21 / 143
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that:
Number of Eastern conference reps = 8
Number of western conference rep = 7
Probability of selecting 3 from Eastern reps and 2 from western reps
Probability = required outcome / Total possible outcomes
Total possible outcomes:
selection to be made = 3+ 2 = 5
Total Number of players = 8 +7 = 15
Total possible outcomes
Using combination formula :
nCr = n! / (n-r)!r!
15C5 = 15! / 10!5! = (15 * 14 * 13 * 12 * 11) / (5*4'3*2*1) = 360360 / 120 = 3003
Total possible outcomes = 3003
Required outcome :
8C3 * 7C2
8C3 = 56 ; 7C2 = 21
8C3 * 7C2 = 56 * 21 = 1176
required outcome / Total possible outcomes
= 1176 / 3003
= 21 / 143
Using the mean concept, it is found that the value of the number that was removed was of 4.
<h3>What is the mean?</h3>
The mean of a data-set is given by the <u>sum of all observations in the data-set divided by the number of observations</u>.
The mean of five numbers is 8, hence, the sum of the numbers is given by:
S = 5 x 8 = 40.
If one of the five numbers is removed, the mean becomes 9, hence, the sum of the four numbers is given by:
S = 4 x 9 = 36.
The difference is:
40 - 36 = 4.
Hence, the value of the number that was removed was of 4.

2 1/2 pounds of apple makes serve 6
(2 1/2 x 24)/6 = 10 pounds of apple will make serve 24.
Therefore, she will use 10 pounds of apples.
So,
Simply divide 12 by 18.
The experimental probability of tossing heads was 2 out of 3.
<span>sinx - cosx =sqrt(2)
Taking square on both sides:
</span>(sinx - cosx)^2 =sqrt(2)^2<span>
sin^2(x) -2cos(x)sin(x) + cos^2(x) = 2
Rearranging the equation:
sin^2(x)+cos^2(x) -2cos(x)sin(x)=2
As,
</span><span>sin^2(x)+cos^2(x) = 1
</span><span>So,
1-2sinxcosx=2
1-1-2sinxcosx=2-1
-</span><span>2sinxcosx = 1
</span><span>Using Trignometric identities:
-2(0.5(sin(x+x)+sin(x-x))=1
-sin2x+sin0=1
As,
sin 0 = 0
So,
sin2x+0 = -1
</span><span>sin2x = -1</span><span>
2x=-90 degrees + t360
Dividing by 2 on both sides:
x=-45 degrees + t180
or 2x=270 degrees +t360
x= 135 degrees + t180 where t is integer</span>
