Teesha is in French club. There are 19 students in the club. The French teacher will pick two students at random to guide visiting students from France. What is the probability that Teesha will not be picked up as a guide?
There are a total of 19 students in the club, and the French teacher will pick 2 students at random. The probability of Teesha being picked as one of the guides is:
(1/19) * (18/18) = 1/19
The first term of the multiplication is the probability of Teesha being picked as the first guide, which is 1 in 19 since there are 19 students in the club. The second term of the multiplication is the probability of any other student being picked as the second guide, which is 18 in 18 since there are 18 students left after Teesha is picked.
To find the probability of Teesha not being picked, we need to subtract the probability of her being picked from 1:
1 - 1/19 = 18/19
Therefore, the probability that Teesha will not be picked up as a guide is 18/19.
