From a group of graduate students including 25 men and 22 women, 37 are chosen to participate in a presentation. What is the probability that exactly 19 men and 18 women are chosen

25.02% probability that exactly 19 men and 18 women are chosen

Step-by-step explanation:

A probability is the number of desired outcomes divided by the number of total outcomes.

The order in which the men and the women are selected is not important, so we use the combinations formula to solve this question.

Combinations formula:

is the number of different combinations of x objects from a set of n elements, given by the following formula.

Desired outcomes:

19 men, from a set of 25

18 women, from a set of 22

Total outcomes:

37 people from a set of 25 + 22 = 47. So

Probability:

25.02% probability that exactly 19 men and 18 women are chosen

1. 180°. the sum of the interior angles of a triangle is 180°, for the equilateral triangle that it has three equals side is 60°+60°+60°=180°.

2. 60°. each interior angle of a equilateral triangle is 60°

3. 120°. the measure of ∠m is 120°, the sum of the angles ∠m and ∠n is equal to 180°. so, in order to find the measure of ∠m, we have ∠m+∠n=180° > ∠m=180°-∠n > ∠m=180°-60°=120°.

4. 360°. the sum of the exterior angles of an equilateral triangle is ∠m+∠r+∠x=120°+120°+120°=360°. the exterior angles of any triangle always add 360°.
