Algebra.Com's Answer #666601 by KMST(5328)![]() ![]() You can put this solution on YOUR website! For the first pick, with 12 females out of 22 students, \n" ); document.write( "the probability of picking one female is \n" ); document.write( "After that, for the second pick, with 10 males out of 21 available students, \n" ); document.write( "the probability of picking one male is \n" ); document.write( "After that second pick, you are left with \n" ); document.write( "So, for the third pick, with 9 males left out of 20 available students, \n" ); document.write( "the probability of picking one male is \n" ); document.write( "The probability that a female is selected, then two males is \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( "For the first pick, with 12 females out of 22 students, \n" ); document.write( "the probability of picking one female is \n" ); document.write( "After that, for the second pick, with 11 females out of 21 available students, \n" ); document.write( "the probability of picking another female is \n" ); document.write( "After that second pick, you are left with \n" ); document.write( "So, for the third pick, with 10 males left out of 20 available students, \n" ); document.write( "the probability of picking one male is \n" ); document.write( "Then, the probability that two females are selected first, then one male is \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( "For the first pick, with 10 males out of 22 students, \n" ); document.write( "the probability of picking one female is \n" ); document.write( "After that, you are left with with 9 males out of 21 available students, \n" ); document.write( "and then the probability of picking another male is \n" ); document.write( "After that second pick, you are left with \n" ); document.write( "So, for the third pick, with 8 males left out of 20 available students, \n" ); document.write( "the probability of picking one more male is \n" ); document.write( "Then, the probability that three males are selected is \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( "For the first pick, with 12 females out of 22 students, \n" ); document.write( "the probability of picking one female is \n" ); document.write( "After that, for the second pick, with \n" ); document.write( "the probability of picking another female is \n" ); document.write( "After that second pick, you are left with \n" ); document.write( "So, for the third pick, with 10 females left out of 20 available students, \n" ); document.write( "the probability of picking one more female is \n" ); document.write( "So, the probability that three females are selected is \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( " |
