1764 ways

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Men = 9

Women = 7

Required Men: 3

Required Women: 2

Total Possible Outcome

The total possible outcome can be determine as follows;

Total = (Selection of Men) and (Selection of Women)

Calculating Selection of Men;

Let n represent total number of men; This implies that n = 9;

Let r represent number of men to select; This implies that r = 3;

The selection can be done in the following ways;

[tex]Male = nCr[/tex]

Where [tex]nCr = \frac{n!}{r!(n-r)!}[/tex]

[tex]Male = 9C3[/tex]

[tex]Male = \frac{9!}{3!(9-3)!}[/tex]

[tex]Male = \frac{9!}{3!(6)!}[/tex]

[tex]Male = \frac{9 * 8 * 7 * 6!}{3!6!}[/tex]

[tex]Male = \frac{9 * 8 * 7}{3!}[/tex]

[tex]Male = \frac{9 * 8 * 7}{3*2*1}[/tex]

[tex]Male = 84 ways[/tex]

Calculating Selection of Women;

Let n represent total number of men; This implies that n = 7;

Let r represent number of men to select; This implies that r = 2;

The selection can be done in the following ways;

[tex]Female = nCr[/tex]

Where [tex]nCr = \frac{n!}{r!(n-r)!}[/tex]

[tex]Female = 7C2[/tex]

[tex]Female = \frac{7!}{2!(7-2)!}}[/tex]

[tex]Female = \frac{7!}{2!(5)!}[/tex]

[tex]Female = \frac{7 * 6 * 5!}{2!5!}[/tex]

[tex]Female = \frac{7 * 6}{2!}[/tex]

[tex]Female = \frac{42}{2*1}[/tex]

[tex]Female = 21 ways[/tex]

Recall that

Total = (Selection of Men) and (Selection of Women)

Hence,

[tex]Total = 84 * 21[/tex]

[tex]Total = 1764 ways[/tex]

1) A microbiologist measures the length of a bacterium of 0.000163 m and the

length of yeast as 0.0087 mm.

a) Which is longest? (Hint: Both must be the same units)

b) How much longer is the longer specimen than the shorter specimen?

Answers

Answer:

a) The bacterium is longer;

b) The bacterium is 0.1543 mm longer than the yeast.

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to compare the length of the two beings we need to convert them to the same unit. We can do it either way, but we'll choose to convert from meters to milimetres, since we're dealing with small numbers. To do that we need to multiply the length that is in "m" by 1000.

[tex]length_{bac} = 0.000163*1000 = 0.163 \text{ mm}[/tex]

a) The bacteria is longer than the yeast.

b) We need to subtract their length in order to find this answer:

[tex]\text{dif} = length_{bac} - length_{yeast}\\\text{dif} = 0.163 - 0.0087 = 0.1543 \text{ mm}[/tex]

Oil prices are projected to increase by 125% by next August. A quart of oil currently costs $1.25. What is the projected cost of a gallon of oil next August? Round your answer to the nearest hundredth.

Answers

Answer:

$2.81

Step-by-step explanation:

1.25 is 100% of the price

125% + 100% = 225%

x = price by august

x = 225% (1.25)

225% = 2.25

2.25(1.25) = 2.8125 ≈ $2.81

Another way to see it:

[tex]\frac{1.25}{x}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{100}{225}[/tex]

225(1.25) / 100 = 2.8125

Solve this equation: -7x + 12 – 2x = 23 + 13.0
Step 1: Simplify by combining like terms that are on the
same side of the equation. Which terms can be
combined?

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

We can combine the -7x and the -2x and the left side to get -9x and the 23 and 13 on the right side to get 36.

This gives us

-9x + 12 = 36

Subtacting 12 from both sides gives us

-9x = 24

dividing by -9 gives us

x = - 8/3

Answer:

see below

Step-by-step explanation:

-7x + 12 – 2x = 23 + 13.0

Combine like terms

(-7x-2x) +12 = (23+13)

-9x +12 = 36

Subtract 12 from each side

-9x +12 -12 = 36 -12

-9x = 24

Divide each side by -9

-9x/-9 = 24/-9

x = -8/3

algebra applications: find the value of x and y ​

Answers

Answer:

[tex]x = 14\\y = 20 \\[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Finding x:

8x + 3x + 26 = 180 (Angle on a straight line add up to 180°)

11x = 180-26

11x = 154

Dividing both sides by 11

x = 14

Finding y:

3x + 5y + 38 = 180 (Angle on a straight line add up to 180°)

3(14) + 5y + 38 = 180

42 + 38 + 5y = 180

80 + 5y = 180

5y = 180-80

5y = 100

Dividing both sides by 5

y = 20

x = 14, y = 20

Step-by-step explanation:

Colleen is knitting a scarf. For every 45 pieces of blue yarn she uses, she uses 18 pieces of red yard. What equation can be used to represent the proportional relationship between the amount of blue yarn, b, and red yard, r, that Colleen uses when knitting a scarf?

Answers

Answer:

The equation that can be used to represent the proportional relationship between the amount of blue yarn, b, and red yarn, r, that Colleen uses when knitting a scarf is:

b = 2.5 r

or

b = 5r/2

Step-by-step explanation:

In the exercise are given the variables that we must use in the equation: b and r, where b is the amount of blue yarn and r is the amount of the red yarn, now it's just missing the proportion that must be used in the equation, to identify this you only must divide the biggest amount (45) by the smallest amount (18), how I show below:

Proportion = 45/18 = 2.5 or 5/2

Having this, you can make the equation taking into account the proportion:

b = 2.5 r

This equation marks that by each piece of blue yarn, are needed 2.5 pieces of red yarn, we can prove the equation replacing the r-value by 18:

b = 2.5 r b = 2.5 (18) b = 45

How you can see, replacing the r-value by 18, the value given for red yarn, we obtain the value given for the blue yarn: 45.

Answer:

b = 2.5 r

or

b = 5r/2

Find the sum of the measures of the exterior angles of a convex 65-gon.

Answers

Answer:

Answer is below

Step-by-step explanation:

The sum of the measures of exterior angles on any shape is always 360 degrees.

If you meant to say the sum of the measures of the interior angles of a convex 65-gon, then it would be 11340 degrees.

(n-2)(180)      Substitute

(65-2)(180)    Subtract

(63)(180)        Multiply

11340

Sum of the measures of the exterior angles of a convex [tex]\boldsymbol{65-}[/tex]gon is equal to [tex]360^{\circ}[/tex]

An exterior angle is an angle between a side of a polygon and an extended side adjacent to it.

A polygon refers to any closed curve comprised of a set of connected sides such that no two sides cross.

Convex [tex]\boldsymbol{65-}[/tex]gon means a convex polygon with [tex]\boldsymbol{n}[/tex] sides.

The sum of measures of any polygon is equal to [tex]\boldsymbol{360^{\circ}}[/tex]
