Answer:

1/8 ;

12 / 51

Step-by-step explanation:

To select any 5 numbers out of 40

Number of selection required / total numbers

Probability of winning = 5 /40 = 1/8

Total number of socks = 18

White, W = 8

Black, B = 6

Blue, C = 4

probability, without looking in the drawer, that you will first select and remove a black pair, then select either a blue or a white pair?

P(B) * [(P(C) + P(W)]

Probability = required outcome / Total possible outcomes

P(B) = 6 / 18 = 1/3

Without replacement :

P(W or C) = 8/17 + 4/17 = 12/17

Hence,

1/3 * 12/17

= 12 / 51

Stels [109]

Answer:

There are 1716 ways the three positions can be filled by these applicants.

Step-by-step explanation:

Permutation is the number of arrangement of <em>k</em> items from <em>n</em> distinct items.

^{n}P_{k}=\frac{n!}{(n-k)!}

For example, permutation can be used to compute the number of ways to arrange 4 mathematics books together when arranging all the 7 books on a shelf.

In this case there are 3 available nursing positions to be filled.

A total of 13 candidates are qualified for all the three positions.

Then the number of ways the 3 positions can be filled by the 13 candidates can be determine using permutation.

Compute the possible number of selections as follows:

^{13}P_{3}=\frac{13!}{(13-3)!}=\frac{13!}{10!}=\frac{13\times 12\times 11\times 10!}{10!}=1716

Thus, there are 1716 ways the three positions can be filled by these applicants.
