A committee of 3 is to be selected randomly from a group of 3 men and 2 women. Let X represent the number of women on the committee. Find the probability
distribution of X.

Total number of ways to select 3 people from the 5 total: 5!/(3! (5 - 3)!) = 10

• Number of ways of picking 0 women:

• Number of ways of picking 1 woman:

• Number of ways of picking 2 women:

• Number of ways of picking 3 women: 0, since there are only 2 to choose from

Then X has the probability mass function

answer: just subtact the units and then add the non negative : happy to

step-by-step explanation:

3

step-by-step explanation:

in standard form:

a= dictionaries

b= maps

you have to buy 3 dictionaries, so put a 3 next to the a (dictionaries) so that you can multiply them by each other.

a3+b= 60 (the amount of money you have)

we already know the cost of a=15 so replace a with $15

($15 x 3)+b=60

multiply 15 and 3 to get $45 and replace it with $45

45+b=60

and then replace b with 15 to get the total:

45+15=60

that means you have $15 left after buying 3 dictionaries.

15 divided by the cost of a map ($5) equals 3.

so you can buy 3 maps.

sorry if it was confusing!
