This is a combinations problem.

The total number of possible 2-item combinations is (1000 choose 2)

The number of 2-defective combinations is (300 choose 2)

The probability = \frac{300 C 2}{1000 C 2} = 0.09

Two objects are moving along separate linear paths where each path is described by position, d, and time, t. The variable d is m
Maru [420]
I am not sure about this but here goes nothing: d=2.5t+2.2 is very familiar to y=mx+b y=d m=2.5 x=t b=2.2 to find a new quasion we substitute d and t into place wich equals 1=2.5(0)+b simplification and you get b=1 so your answer is d=2.5t+1

Goryan [66]
I believe the answer is 3/8. The whole portion of employees, which is translated as 8/8 is deducted by 5/8, which is the population of male employees.

We can apply Quadratic equations in real-world like; sports, bridges, projectile motion, shapes of bananas etc.

Following are three pictures of real world application of quadratics.

Example 1:- Here we can see a Cyclist follows a quadratic path to jump over the obstacles.

Example 2:- Here we see a man throwing a basketball towards the net following a slightly upward direction that goes through a quadratic path.

Example 3:- Here a football player kicks the ball in the sky and it goes through a quadratic path to cover some distance.
