Answer:

$Pr = 0.4286$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Let

$U \to\\$ Undergraduates

$G \to$ Graduates

So, we have:

$U = 3; G =5$ -- Total students

$r = 4$ --- students to select

Required

$P(U =2)$

From the question, we understand that 2 undergraduates are to be selected; This means that 2 graduates are to be selected.

First, we calculate the total possible selection (using combination)

$^nC_r = \frac{n!}{(n-r)!r!}$

So, we have:

$Total = ^{U + G}C_r$

$Total = ^{3 + 5}C_4$

$Total = ^8C_4$

$Total = \frac{8!}{(8-4)!4!}$

$Total = \frac{8!}{4!4!}$

Using a calculator, we have:

$Total = 70$

The number of ways of selecting 2 from 3 undergraduates is:

$U = ^3C_2$

$U = \frac{3!}{(3-2)!2!}$

$U = \frac{3!}{1!2!}$

$U = 3$

The number of ways of selecting 2 from 5 graduates is:

$G = ^5C_2$

$G = \frac{5!}{(5-2)!2!}$

$G = \frac{5!}{3!2!}$

$G =10$

So, the probability is:

$Pr = \frac{G * U}{Total}$

$Pr = \frac{10*3}{70}$

$Pr = \frac{30}{70}$

$Pr = 0.4286$

If a seed is planted, it has a 75% chance of growing into a healthy plant.

Arlecino [84]

Answer:

It is binomial:

p= 0.75 = 75%

1-p = 0.25 = 25%

N = 10

k=7

"seven successes in 10 trials"

(10 choose 7) (0.75)^7 ( 0.25)^3 =

(10*9*8 / 3*2) * (0.75)^7 ( 0.25)^3 =

(5*3*8) (0.75)^7 ( 0.25)^3

120 (0.75)^7 ( 0.25)^3

= 0.25028228759765625

or just over 25%

Can someone answer for me please, if you're great at math.

Assuming that c is the length of AB (as is usually the case in the angle-side notation for triangles):
If sin(35) = 12/c, we can transform by multiplying both sides by c, and dividing both by sin(35) to get
c = 12/sin(35)
Evaluating using a calculator gives 20.92 units.
