Question 1039296: a committe of 5 people is to be randomly selected from a group of 9 people including zubeda.
the probability that zubeda is selected to be on the 5- person committee is? Answer by Edwin McCravy(20055) (Show Source):
The number of 5-person committees that include Zubeda,
we choose Zubeda in exactly 1C1 = 1 way, and we choose the
other 4 members from the other 8 people in 8C4 ways.
That's 1 times 8C4 or 8C4.
The number of 5-person committees (whether or not they
include or exclude Zubeda) is 9C5
