Question
The likelihood that Maya secures a place in college D is
90% and in college E is 85%. Maya's order of preference is 'D', then 'E', and finally 'F'. Assuming Maya secures admission to college 'F', what is the probability she will go to college 'F'?Solution
ATQ, Maya will go to college 'F' only if she does not get into college 'D' or 'E'. So, probability that she doesn't get into college 'D' = (1 - 0.9) = 0.1 And probability that she doesn't get into college 'E' = (1 - 0.85) = 0.15 So, required probability = 0.1 × 0.15 = 0.015
Simplify:
6x + 8y - [(12x + 6y) - (4x + 3y) + 2y] - 4xIf 9x2 + 16y2 = 24xy, then find the ratio of ‘x’ and ‘y’, respectively.
- Suppose [a + (1/16a)] = 3, then the value of [16a³ + (1/256a³)] is:
If, 6x + y = 20, and 2xy = 32, and 6x > y, then find the value of 216x³ – y³.
If x + 1/x = 2, find x⁷ + 1/x⁷.
(x – 6) 2 + (y + 2) 2 + (z – 4) 2 = 0, then find the value of 4x - 3y + z.
