Probability that 2 of the 10 chargers will be defective =0.35

Number of ways of selecting 10 chargers from 20 chargers is 20C10

20C10 = 184756

Number of ways of selecting 10 chargers from 20 = 184756

Number of ways of selecting 2 defective chargers from 5 defective chargers = 5C2

5C2 = 10

Since 2 defective chargers have been chosen, there remains 8 to choose

Number of ways of selecting 8 good chargers from 15 remaining chargers = 15C8

Number of ways of selecting 8 good chargers from 15 remaining chargers = 6435

Probability that 2 of the 10 will be defective =

(10x6435)/184756

Probability that 2 of the 10 will be defective = 64350/184756

Probability that 2 of the 10 chargers will be defective =0.35

-6x-14y=-20<br> -3x-7y=-10

Alex Ar [27]

ANSWER:

x = 10 / 3

y = 0

STEP-BY-STEP EXPLANATION:

We will be using simultaneous equations to solve this problem. Let's first establish the two equations which we will be using.

Equation No. 1 -

- 6x - 14y = - 20

Equation No. 2 -

- 3x - 7y = - 10

First, we will make ( x ) the subject in the first equation and simplify accordingly.

Equation No. 1 -

- 6x - 14y = - 20

- 6x = - 20 + 14y

x = ( - 20 + 14y ) / - 6

x = ( - 10 + 7y ) / - 3

From this, we will make ( y ) the subject in the second equation and substitute the value of ( x ) from the first equation into the second equation to solve for ( y ) accordingly.

Equation No. 2 -

- 3x - 7y = - 10

- 7y = - 10 + 3x

- 7y = - 10 + 3 [ ( - 10 + 7y ) / - 3 ]

- 7y = - 10 + [ ( - 30 + 21y ) / - 3 ]

- 7y = - 10 + ( 10 - 7y )

- 7y = - 7y

- 7y + 7y = 0

0y = 0

y = 0

Using this, we will substitute the value of ( y ) from the second equation into the first equation to solve for ( x ) accordingly.

x = ( - 10 + 7y ) / - 3

x = [ - 10 + 7 ( 0 ) ] / - 3

x = [ - 10 + 0 ] / - 3

x = - 10 / - 3

x = 10 / 3

last year 1/5 of the students in your class played a sport this year 10 students join the class five of the new students play a

tino4ka555 [31]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

last year 1/5 of the class played sports, so s = (1/5) c

the next year, s increased by 5, c increased by 10 and the fraction changed to 1/4, so for the next year (s+5) = (1/4)(c+10)

To solve this we can substitute s = (1/5)c from the first equation into the second, so

((1/5)c + 5)=(1/4)(c+10), simplify both sides

(1/5)c + 5 = (1/4)c + 10/4, simplify 10/4 to 5/2

(1/5)c + 5 = (1/4)c + 5/2, multiply both sides by 20 to eliminate fractions (least common multiple of 2, 4 and 5)

4c + 100 = 5c + 50, subtract 4c, subtract 50 from both sides

50 = c, number of students in class last year was 50, this year is 10 more, so this year is 60

Find the area of this kite

SVETLANKA909090 [29]

Answer:

26 units^2

Step-by-step explanation:

the area of a kite is (d1 * d2)/2

d1 = 2 + 2 = 4

d2 = 6 + 7 = 13

4 * 13 = 52

52 / 6 = 26

26 units^2 is your answer
