The best way to solve this equation is to multiply the probability of them each getting a cotton sweater. The first fraction would be 1/2 because half of the sweaters are cotton at this point. The second one would be 6/13 because there are now six cotton sweaters out of the thirteen sweaters left. The third would be 5/12 because there are now five cotton sweaters out of the twelve sweaters left. The last one would be 4/11 because there are now four cotton sweaters out of the eleven sweaters left. you would then multiply 2 by 13 getting 26, then multiply 26 by 12 getting 312. Finally, multiply 312 by 11 getting 3,432, which would be your denominator. You would then multiply 6, 5, and 4 getting 120, your numerator. Getting your simplified answer 5/143.

malfutka [58]

Answer:

2 and -3

Step-by-step explanation:

because a coefficient is a numerical or constant quantity placed before and multiplying the variable in an algebraic expression (e.g. 4 in 4x).

so in 2x-3y+5, 2 and -3 are the coefficients.

A survey of 1,000 men and women asked, "Do you earn over $50,000 per year?" The table below shows the responses for males and fe
Effectus [21]

Based on the data, it is found that "being female" and "earning over $50,000" are not independent events. the correct answer is option D.

<h3>What is probability?</h3>

Probability is defined as the ratio of the number of favorable outcomes to the total number of outcomes in other words the probability is the number that shows the happening of the event.

Two events, A and B are independent, if:

P(A \cap B) = P(A) P(B)

In this problem, the events are:

  • Event A: Being female.
  • Event B: Earning over $50,000.

Out of the 1000 people, 450 are female, hence:

P(A) = \dfrac{450}{1000} = 0.45

850 earn over $50,000, hence:

P(B) = \dfrac{850}{1000} = 0.85

375 are women who earn over $50,000, hence:

P(A \cap B)  = \dfrac{375}{1000} = 0.375

The multiplication of the probabilities is:

P(A \cap B)  = 0.45(0.85} = 0.3825

Therefore based on the data, it is found that "being female" and "earning over $50,000" are not independent events. the correct answer is option D.
