Answer:

0. 4329

Step by step explanation

Since both groups will have the same number of men, we would guarantee each group consists of three women and three men.

So theprobability is (6, 3)·(6, 3)/(12, 6)=100/231.

Answer:

P(A) = 400/924 = 100/231 or 0.4329

Step-by-step explanation:

The probability that both groups will have the same number of men P(A);

For the two groups to have the same number of men they must include 3 men and 3 women in each group.

P(A) = Number of possible selections of 3 men from 6 and 3 women from 6 into each of the two groups N(S) ÷ total number of possible selections of members into the two groups N(T).

P(A) = N(S)/N(T)

Since order is not important, we will use combination.

N(S) = 6C3 × 6C3 = 20 × 20 = 400

N(T) = 12C6 = 924

P(A) = 400/924 = 100/231 or 0.4329

Talia wants to write the equation of the graphed line in point-slope form. These are the steps she plans to use: Step 1: Choose
TEA [102]
Answer:
Steps 3 and 4 are incorrect because
(a) An incorrect value for slope was obtained in step 3.
(b) The incorrect value for the slope was used in step 4.

Explanation:
Let us evaluate Talia's steps.

Step 1: Select (2, 5) as a point on the line.
            CORRECT

Step 2: Select another point (1, 3) on the line.
            CORRECT

Step 3: Count units to the right and count units up, to determine the slope.
            Units right = 2 - 1 = 1
            Units up = 5 - 3 = 2
            Slope = (Units up)/(Units right) = 2/1 = 2
            INCORRECT because Talia did not obtain a slope of 2.

Step 4: Substitute obtained values in the point-slope form.
             (y - y1) = m(x - x1). If we select the point (1, 3), then
            y - 2 = 2(x - 1).
            Talia's equation is INCORRECT because she used an incorrect value
            for the slope.

ElenaW [278]

The graph is missing, so i have attached it.

Answer:

From 0 hours to 2 hours.

Step-by-step explanation:

From the attached graph, we can see that on the y-axis, denotes the level of ibuprofen in the patient’s bloodstream while the x-axis denotes the amount of hours after the ibuprofen was taken.

Now, looking at the graph, we can see that the curve goes up from a time of 0 hours which corresponds to 0 mg of ibuprofen to a time of 2 hours which corresponds to 400 mg of ibuprofen.

After that point, the curve begins to to go down. Since we are concerned with increase, we will make do with the first statement.

Thus, we can say the period at which the level of ibuprofen increased was from 0 hours to 2 hours.
