Eight individuals are candidates for positions of president, vice president, and treasurer of an organization. How many possibilities of selections exist

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

336

Step-by-step explanation:

It is given that,

Total number of individuals are 8

They are candidates for positions of president, vice president, and treasurer of an organization.

It is a based on permutations. We need to find P(8,3). It can be calculated as follows :

[tex]P(n,r)=\dfrac{n!}{(n-r)!}[/tex]

So,

[tex]P(8,3)=\dfrac{8!}{(8-3)!}\\\\=\dfrac{8!}{5!}\\\\=\dfrac{8\times 7\times 6\times 5!}{5!}\ [\because n!=n(n-1)!]\\\\=8\times 7\times 6\\\\=336[/tex]

Hence, there are 336 possibilities of selections.

how many numbers are between k and n

Answers

Answer:

n-k-1

Step-by-step explanation:

n is bigger than k. It asks BETWEEN k and n. so, since n is bigger than k, n-k. since it says BETWEEN, you subtract 1 after that

got it?

=)

oh and the reason i am strict about BETWEEN, is because when it said between, then its discluding k and n.

If it says FROM k and n, then you both include k and n, and that would result of adding 1 instead of subtracting 1.

How do i turn 80% 0f 86- i know the answer but i don't know how to do it

Can someone please teach me

Answers

We know that of refers to multiplication (from BODMAS)

% means per hundred, i.e., 1/100

So, 80% of 86 is:

(80/100) × 86

or (4/5) × 86

or 4 × 17.2

or 68.8

Hope you understand

Answer:

68.8

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be 80% of 86.

To find 80% of 86

[tex] \frac{80}{100} = \frac{x}{86} [/tex]

[tex]80 \times 86 = 100x[/tex]

[tex]6880 = 100x[/tex]

[tex]68.8 = x[/tex]

Or you can simply do it as:

[tex]86 \times 80\%[/tex]

[tex]86 \times \frac{80}{100} [/tex]

[tex] \frac{86 \times 80}{100} [/tex]

[tex] \frac{6880}{100} [/tex]

[tex]68.8[/tex]

Find the slope of the line.
–71 – 2y = 56
Enter your answer in the box

Answers

Well, to find the slope of a line, mx + b = y is the formula, and m is slope.

-71 - 2y = 56
We add the 71 on both sides.
-2y = 126
Divide by -2 on both sides.
y = -63

There is no distinguishable slope in this because y equals an integer, not an expression that includes x or m, so the slope is zero.

Identify the theorem or postulate that is related to the measures of the angles in the pair, and find the unknown angle measures.

m∠ACD=(5x+25)∘, m∠BDC=(25x+35)∘

Answers

Answer:

m∠ACD = 50°

m∠BDC = 160°

Step-by-step explanation:

From the picture attached,

Two parallel lines AC and BD are intersected by a transversal line.

Angles formed ∠ACD and ∠BDC are the consecutive angles.

By the theorem of consecutive interior angles,

m∠ACD + m∠BDC = 180°

(5x + 25)° + (25x + 35)° = 180°

30x + 60 = 180

30x = 180 - 60

30x = 150

x = 5

Therefore, m∠ACD = (5x + 25)

                                 = 5(5) + 25

                                 = 50°

And m∠BDC = (25x + 35)°

                      = 25(5) + 35

                      = 125 + 35

                      = 160°

Some car jacks are constructed like a collapsed rhombus. When used to raise a​ car, the rhombus is easily seen. If the sides of the rhombus are 15​", what is the maximum length of the​ shaft?

Answers

Complete question is;

Some car jacks are constructed like a collapsed rhombus. When used to raise a car, the rhombus is easily seen. If the sides of the rhombus are 15 inches, what is the maximum length of the shaft?

Answer:

Maximum length of shaft = 30 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

To understand this clearly, I've attached a real life image of a car jack that's in the shape of a rhombus.

From the attached image, we can see that it has four sides which are equal in length.

Now, if this jack is collapsed, the shaft will just be like a straight line with a maximum length equal to twice a side of the rhombus which represents the maximum length of the diagonal.

Since we are told that one side of the rhombus is 15 inches, it means that the maximum length of shaft = 2 × 15 = 30 inches

The angles shown above form a linear pair. Show all of your work for full credit.
A. What is the angle relationship between these two angles?
B. Set up an equation and solve for n.
C. Substitute your values into the equation and find the measurements of both angles.

Answers

Answer:

A. [tex] (4n + 22) + (8n - 10) = 180 [/tex]

B. [tex] n = 14 [/tex]

C. 78° and 102°

Step-by-step explanation:

A. The relationship between the two angles that are a linear pair is: their sum gives us 180°. That is:

[tex] (4n + 22) + (8n - 10) = 180 [/tex]

B. [tex] (4n + 22) + (8n - 10) = 180 [/tex]

Solve for n.

[tex] 4n + 22 + 8n - 10 = 180 [/tex]

Collect like terms

[tex] 12n + 12 = 180 [/tex]

Subtract 12 from both sides

[tex] 12n + 12 - 12 = 180 - 12 [/tex]

[tex] 12n = 168 [/tex]

Divide both sides by 12

[tex] \frac{12n}{12} = \frac{168}{12} [/tex]

[tex] n = 14 [/tex]

C. Plug in the value of 14 to get the measurement of both angles

[tex] (4n + 22) = 4(14) + 22 = 56 + 22 = 78 [/tex]

[tex] (8n - 10) = 8(14) - 10 = 112 - 10 = 102 [/tex]

is 3.4567 irrational or rtional

Answers

3.4567 is irrational

Answer:

3.4567 is a rational number

Step-by-step explanation:

An irrational number has no ending while a rational number does. An irrational number can not be written as a fraction while a rational number can. Basically, all you have to do to figure out if a number is rational or irrational is to figure out if it has an ending.

For example, if you had 234.888888888 irrational but if the number was 234.98989654 then it would be rational

In southern California, a growing number of individuals pursuing teaching credentials are choosing paid internships over traditional student teaching programs. A group of eight candidates for three local teaching positions consisted of five who had enrolled in paid internships and three who enrolled in traditional student teaching programs. All eight candidates appear to be equally qualified, so three are randomly selected to fill the open positions. Let Y be the number of internship trained candidates who are hired.
a. Does Y have a binomial or hypergeometric distribution? Why?
b. Find the probability that two or more internship trained candidated are hired.
c. Find the standard deviation and mean of Y.

Answers

Answer:

A) Hypergeometric

B) P( X ≥ 2) = 0.7143

C) Standard deviation: σ = 0.7087

Mean = 1.875

Step-by-step explanation:

A) Y has Hypergeometric distribution. This is because, the population is not definite and is largely a finite number of people that have one of the two characteristics. Also, a sample of 8 was selected from this population and a random variable of interest that contained the number of people with one of the characteristics.

B) We are told total candidates were 8.

Thus; N = 8

3 were for local teaching positions, thus; n = 3

5 were for paid internship, thus; r = 5

Now, the formula for Hypergeometric distribution is;

P(y) = {(rCy) × [(N-r)C(n-y)]}/(NCn)

Where C represents combination.

Thus, probability that two or more candidates were hired is;

P( X ≥ 2) = P(2) + P(3)

Now, N - r = 8 - 5 = 3

For P(2); n - y = 3 - 2 = 1

For P(3); n - y = 3 - 3 = 0

Thus;

P(2) = {(5C2) × (3C1}/(8C3)

P(2) = 30/56

P(2) = 0.5357

P(3) = {(5C3) × (3C0}/(8C3)

P(3) = 10/56

P(3) = 0.1786

Thus;

P( X ≥ 2) = 0.5357 + 0.1786

P( X ≥ 2) = 0.7143

C) Formula for standard deviation in Hypergeometric distribution is;

σ = √[(nr/N) × ((N - r)/n) × ((N - n)/(N - 1))]

nr/N = (3 × 5/8) = 15/8

((N - r)/N) = (8 - 5)/8 = 3/8

((N - n)/(N - 1)) = (8 - 3)/(8 - 1) = 5/7

σ = √((15/8) × (3/8) × (5/7))

σ =√0.5022

σ = 0.7087

Formula for mean in Hypergeometric distribution is;

E(Y) = nr/N = 3 × 5/8 = 1.875
