Answer:
a. 24
b. 2
c. 0.0833 = 8.33%
Step-by-step explanation:
a.
The first "slot" of person to arrive has 4 possibilities, then the second "slot" will have 3 possibilities, as one has already arrived, then the third "slot" has 2 possibilities, and the fourth "slot" has just 1 possibility.
So, multiplying all these combinations, we have 4*3*2*1 = 24 possible ways they can arrive
b.
If the first and the last person are already "locked", we just have possibilities for the second and third person. The second will have 2 possibilities (Sergio or Tyrone), and the third will have only 1 (the person that wasn't the second between Sergio and Tyrone). So, the number of possibilities is 2*1 = 2
c.
If we have 2 cases where Dawn is first and Jim is last, from a total of 24 possible cases, the probability is 2/24 = 1/12 = 0.0833 = 8.33%
Answer:
c. 130
Step-by-step explanation:
Let call B the quantity of voters who voted yes for both propositions.
From the question we know that twice as many voters voted "yes" for R as for S, that can be written as the following equation:
R+B=2(S+B)
Where R is the number who voted "yes" for R but "no2 for S and S is the number who voted "yes" for S but "no" for R.
Replacing R by 750 and S by 310 and solving for B, we get:
750+B=2(310+B)
750+B=620+2B
2B-B=750-620
B=130
So, 130 voters voted yes for both propositions
If the x’s between are multiplication and the last ones the letter x then the answer is 9(17 + 4x)
