Using the concept of probability and the arrangements formula, there is a  

0.002 = 0.2% probability that the first 8 people in line are teachers.

----------------------------------

  • A probability is the <u>number of desired outcomes divided by the number of total outcomes.</u>
  • The order in which they are positioned is important, and all people will be positioned, and thus, the arrangements formula is used to find the number of outcomes.

The number of possible arrangements from a set of n elements is given by:

A_n = n!

----------------------------------

The desired outcomes are:

  • First 8 people are teachers, in <u>8! possible ways.</u>
  • Last 4 are students, in <u>4! possible ways.</u>

Thus, D = 8! \times 4!

----------------------------------

For the total outcomes, <u>number of arrangements of 12 people</u>, thus:

T = 12!

The probability is:

p = \frac{D}{T} = \frac{8! \times 4!}{12!} = 0.002

0.002 = 0.2% probability that the first 8 people in line are teachers.

raketka [301]

Answer:

960

Step-by-step explanation:

3/8*total number of animals = 600

total number of animals = 8/3 * 600 = 1600

number of animals fed = 40/100 * 1600 = 640

animals still to be fed = 1600 - 640 = 960

svlad2 [7]

Answer:

t_{\alpha/2} = t_{0.05/2} = t_{0.025} = 2.0322

Step-by-step explanation:

We have a sample of size n = 35, \bar{x} = 92 and s = 5. As we want to construct a 95% confidence interval to estimate the value of the true population mean \mu, we should use the pivotal quantity given by T = \frac{\bar{X}-\mu}{S/\sqrt{n}} which comes from the t distribution with n - 1 = 35 - 1 = 34 degrees of freedom. Besides we should use the t-value t_{\alpha/2} = t_{0.05/2} = t_{0.025} = 2.0322, i.e., regarding the t-distribution with 34 degrees of freedom, we have an area of 0.025 above 2.0322 and below the probability density function. The rationale behind this is that P(-2.0322\leq T\leq 2.0322) = 0.95 because of the simmetry of the t distribution.
