The grade appeal process at a university requires that a jury be structured by selecting five individuals randomly from a pool of eight students and ten faculty.
What is the probability of selecting a jury of all students?

Respuesta :

Answer:

0.006535 (to 6 decimal place)

Step-by-step explanation:

There are

8 students in total

10 faculty in total

Jury consists of 5 members

We need to select jury of students

Hence, the probability would be:

ways of selecting 5 students from 8 students DIVIDED by ways of selecting 5 members from total of 18

So,

5 of 8 selection = 8C5

5 out of 18 selection = 18C5

So,

Probability of selecting a jury of all students = 8C5/18C5 = 56/8568 = 0.006535
