Answer:

P(A) = 0.1620 , P(A|B) = 0.0707

Step-by-step explanation:

Total people = 10 + 15 + 20 = 45 , Sophomores = 10, Juniors = 15 , Seniors = 20

P(A) , exactly 3 juniors selected = (15 c 3) (30 c 2) / (45 c 5) = (455 x 435) / 1221759 = 0.1620  

P (B) , exactly 2 seniors selected = (20 c 2) (25 c 3) / (45 c 5) = (190 x 2300)/ 1221759 = 0.3576

P(A|B), exactly 3 juniors & exactly 2 seniors selected = P (A∩B) / P (B)

(15 c 3) (20 c 2) / (45 c 5) = (455 x 190) / 1221759 = 0.0707

aksik [14]

Answer:

Angle of Depression and Angle of Elevation

One application of the trigonometric ratios is to find lengths that you cannot measure. Very frequently, angles of depression and elevation are used in these types of problems.

Angle of Depression: The angle measured down from the horizon or a horizontal line.

Angle of Elevation: The angle measured up from the horizon or a horizontal line.

Y = 4x 2 is shifted 5 units to the right
Sergeeva-Olga [200]

Answer:4

Step-by-step explanation: y=mx+b is the slope intercept form of an equation. m is the slope and b is the y-intercept. just substitute 4 for m and 2 for b and get the original equation y = 4x + 2. since 4 is m, then 4 is the slope.

DochEvi [55]

Answer: 80 cubic centimeters

Step-by-step explanation:

Use the formula: V=\frac{1}{3}Bh

(B is the area of the pyramid's base)

V=\frac{1}{3}(16)(15)

Multiply: 16 x 15 =240

              \frac{1\\}{3} x 240 = 80
