<PRE><B>Question 1048531</B>
40 students, 23 female and 17 male
the idea here is that P = selected/Total
(selected in order (stated) without replacement)
Keep in mind there is 1 less of the selected and 1 less of the Total
for the next selection
|
a) P(M, then 2Fs) = {{{(17/40)(23/39)(22/38)}}}
b) P(F, then 2Ms){{{(23/40)(17/39)(16/38)}}}
c) P(2F, then M) = {{{(23/40)(22/39)(17/38)}}}
d) P(3M) = {{{(17/40)(16/39)(15/38)}}}
e) P(3F) = {{{(23/40)(22/39)(21/38)}}}
