If one is to choose among given choices and the order is not important, we use the concept of combination. First, we calculate for the sample space or number available since there is a total number of 12 electives and a student may choose 2 out of them.
S = 12C2
That is "the sample space is equal to combination of 12 taken 2". The answer to this is equal to 66.
Next, we determine the number of outcomes. The equation will be,
O = (5C1) x (3C1)
That is "outcome is equal to combination of 5 taken 1 times combination of 3 taken 1". This is equal to 15. The probability is equal to,
P = O/S
Substituting,
P = (15/66) = 0.227270
The answer to this item is the third choice.
Answer:
DF=3.75
Step-by-step explanation:
24/6=15/x
cross multiply to get 24x=90
x=3.75
1/8 ( 8x + 15)= 24
x + 1 7/8= 24
x= 24 - 1 7/8
x= 22 1/8
The answer is none of them.
Answer:
7.56 km²
Step-by-step explanation:
Given data:
Width of the fjord, w = 6.3 km
Retreated terminus of the glacier between may 2001 and June 2005, d = 7.5 km
thus, the length lost , y = 7.5 - 6.3 = 1.2 km
now, the area is given as:
A = Length × width
on substituting the values, we get
A = 1.2 × 6.3
or
A = 7.56 km²
Hence, the surface area lost by the glacier in the fjord is 7.56 km²
