The principal would like to assemble a committee of 8 students from the 20-member student council. How many different committees can be chosen?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

2

Step-by-step explanation:

If you subtract 8from20 there's 11 memeber student councilors left which then you subtract another 8from the remaining 11 students and there would be 3 student councilors left which means

there can only be 2.5 different committees because you can't subtract 3 from 8

Answer 2

Answer:

125790 different committees can be chosen.

Step-by-step explanation:

The principal would like to assemble a committee of 8 students from the 20-member student council.

We need to find How many different committees can be chosen?

Since the order is not important, so we use Combinations to solve the question.

The formula used is: [tex]^nC_r=\frac{n!}{(n-r)!r!} \\[/tex]

In the question given: we have n = 20 and r = 8

Putting values and finding the number of ways committees can be chosen:

[tex]^nC_r=\frac{n!}{(n-r)!r!} \\\\^{20}C_8=\frac{20!}{(20-8)!8!} \\^{20}C_8=\frac{20*19*18*17*16*15*14*13*12!}{12!8!} \\^{20}C_8=\frac{20*19*18*17*16*15*14*13}{8!} \\^{20}C_8=\frac{20*19*18*17*16*15*14*13}{8*7*6*5*4*3*2*1} \\^{20}C_8=\frac{5079110400}{40320}\\^{20}C_8=125970[/tex]

So, 125790 different committees can be chosen.

Hey there!

The answer to your question is x = 7

We can solve this by simplifying both sides of the equation:

2x - 6 = 8x - 48

Then, add 48 to both sides:

2x + 42 = 8x

Then, subtract 2x from both sides:

42 = 6x

Lastly, divide both sides by 6:

7 = x

If there's a three day rain forecast for the probability of rain , 70% Friday, 70% Saturday, 70% Sunday A) work out the probability that it will rain on all three days B) work out the probability that it will rain on exactly two consecutive days

Answers

Answer:

a) 34.3%

b) 49%

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to find the probability of a sequence of events, we need to multiply each individual probability by the others in decimal form. Therefore, we need to turn these probabilities into decimal form by dividing them by 100 like so..

70% / 100 = 0.70

Now we multiply all of them together and multiply the product by 100 to get the percentage.

0.70 * 0.70 * 0.70 = 0.343

0.343 * 100 = 34.3%

34.3% is the probability of it raining on all three days. Now to find the probability of it raining on two consecutive days we do the same but multiply only 2 probabilities

0.70 * 0.70 = 0.49

0.49 * 100 = 49%

Point (21,28) is dilated by a scale factor of (-1/7) with a center of dilation on the origin. What are the new coordinates

Answers

Step-by-step explanation:

Original x-value = 21

New x-value = 21 * (-1/7) = -3.

Original y-value = 28

New y-value = 28 * (-1/7) = -4.

Hence the coordinates of the new point is (-3,-4).

Answer:

Original value of x-axis =21

New value of x-axis = 21×(-1/7) = -3

Original value of y-axis =28

New value of y-axis = 28×(-1/7) = -4

Hence, the new coordinate is (-3,-4).

Shelly kelso's gross pay this month is $6,223. Her earnings to date for this year are $23,631. How much does her employer deduct from her paycheck this month for (a) social security and (b) medicare? 1. A. Find the social security amount

Answers

Answer:

Social Security = $385.83

Medicare = $90.23

Step-by-step explanation:

Social security rate in 2021 is 6.2% on your first $142,800 for the year. Shelly has not reached that threshold so her Social security tax is:

= 6.2% * 6,223

= $‭385.83

Medicare has no threshold and the rate in 2021 is 1.45%:

= 1.45% * 6,223

= $90.23

slope = 0

remember slope is just rise (change in y) over run (change in x) and since there's no change it has a zero slope, which applies to any horizontal line parallel to the x axis

Answers

Answer:

  $111.24

Step-by-step explanation:

The use of a 20% off coupon causes the price to be multiplied by (1 -20%) = 0.80. The addition of 7% tax causes the discounted price to be multiplied by (1 +7%) = 1.07. Multiplying the price by these two factors gives ...

a 100oz bottle costs $2.97 and a 200oz bottle costs $5.78 what is the unit price of each one?

Answers

Answer: BOTTLE 1 =0.0297 BOTTLE 2 =0.0289

Step-by-step explanation:

In a unit rate, the denominator is always 1. So, to find unit rate, divide the denominator with the numerator in a way that the denominator becomes 1. For example, if 50 km is covered in 5.5 hours, the unit rate will be 50 km/5.5 hours = 9.09 km/hour

bottle 1: $2.97/100 oz = unit rate

bottle 2: $5.78/200 oz=unit rate

BOTTLE 1 =0.0297

BOTTLE 2 =0.0289

(a) The diagram shows a circle, centre 0. AB and CD are chord.
Given that OM = 8 cm, NT = 3 cm, AB = 30 cm.

(1) Calculate the radius
(2) Calculate the length of CD​

Answers

Answer:

1) Radius = 17 cm

2). CD = 19.3 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

1). O is the center of the given circle.

 By joining the center and point A located at the circumference of the circle,

 OA = radius of the circle.

 Length of chord AB = 30 cm

 "Line from the center of a circle to the chord inside the circle is a perpendicular bisector of the chord"

  By the given property, OM equally divides the chord AB.

 AM = MB

 AM = [tex]\frac{1}{2}(AB)[/tex]

 AM = [tex]\frac{10}{2}[/tex] = 5 cm

 By applying Pythagoras theorem in ΔOAM,

 AO² = OM² + AM²

 AO² = 8² + 15²

 AO =  √289

 AO = 17 cm

 Therefore, radius of the circle = 17 cm

2). Since, OT, OC and OA are the radii of the given circle,

  OT = OC = OA = 17 cm

  ON = OT - NT

         = 17 - 3

         = 14 cm

   By applying Pythagoras theorem in ΔOCM,

   OC² = ON² + CN²

   17² = 14² + CN²

   CN = [tex]\sqrt{(17^2-14^2)}[/tex]

         = [tex]\sqrt{93}[/tex]

         = 9.64 cm

     Since, CD = 2(CN)

      CD = 2 × 9.64

             = 19.29 cm

              ≈ 19.3 cm
