Answer:

a) There are 9 outcomes.

b) **i have attached the tree diagram**

c) 1/9

d) 1/9

Step-by-step explanation:

Both events (choosing a shirt and choosing pants) are not mutually exclusive (disjoint). Meaning that both events can occur at the same time.

a) For a sequence of two events in which the first event can occur m ways and the second event can occur n ways, the events together can occur a total of m • n ways. So for this problem, you would do 3 • 3 which equals 9.

b) **tree diagram is attached**

c) Because there are two different events occurring (choosing a shirt and choosing pants) you need to multiply using the Multiplication Rule for Independent Events : P(A and B) = P(A) * P(B)

The probability of event A occurring (choosing a red shirt) is 1/3 and the probability of event B occurring (choosing brown pants) is also 1/3.

1/3 * 1/3 = 1/9

d) You would do the same thing here as part c.

The probability of event A occurring (choosing a blue shirt) is 1/3 and the probability of event B occurring (choosing blue pants) is again 1/3.

1/3 * 1/3 = 1/9

I hope this was helpful!! :)

Miller's Steakhouse offers 8 side dishes, 5 types of steak, and 4 toppings. How many different smothered steak dinners can be ma

horrorfan [7]

Answer:

1120

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the possible number of steak dinners, you would multiply the number of choices for each part of the dinner. You would used combinations instead of permutations since the order of the toppings chosen or side dishes chosen do not matter. There are 5 choose 1 choices for types of steak, which is just 5. There are 8 choose 3 choices for side dishes, which is 56. There are 4 choose 3 choices for toppings, which is 4. 5*56*4 is 1120, so there are 1120 possible steak dinners.

Which of the following best describes the solution to the system of equations below?

OverLord2011 [107]

Answer: OPTION A

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of the line in slope-intercept form is:

$y=mx+b$

Where m is the slope and b the y-intercept.

Solve for y from each equation:

$\left \{ {{5y=-4x+7} \atop {10y=-8x+14}} \right.\\\\\left \{ {{y=\frac{-4}{5}x+\frac{7}{5}} \atop {y=\frac{-8}{10}x+\frac{14}{10}}} \right.\\\\\left \{ {{y=\frac{-4}{5}x+\frac{7}{5}} \atop {y=\frac{-4}{5}x+\frac{7}{5}}} \right.$

As you can see the slope and the y-intercept of each equation are equal, this means that both are the exact same line. Therefore, you can conclude that the system has infinitely many solutions.
