Answer:

This can be done using the choose function.

The number of combinations are given by:

(

n

k

)

=

n

!

k

!

(

n

−

k

)

!

where

n

is the total number of students and

k

is the number of students to be picked. So we have

n

=

20

and

k

=

5

:

Evaluate directly with a calculator:

Zaid and Matias, two farmers, constructed a 792 foot fence around their very large garden. Zaid agreed to construct 20% more of
likoan [24]

Answer:

1.2x +x =792

2.2x =792

And we got finally:

x =\frac{792}{2.2}= 360 ft

And the amount for Zaid would be 1.2*360 ft= 432ft

So then Zaid construc 432 ft and Matias 360 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

For this case we know that Zaid and Matias, two farmers, constructed a 792 foot fence around their very large garden so then the total is represented by 792 ft

We also know that Zaid agreed to construct 20% more of the fence than Matias did. Let's assume that the amount that construct by Matias was x then the amount constructed by Zaid would be 1.2 x representing 20% more than Matias and we can set up the following equation:

1.2x +x =792

2.2x =792

And we got finally:

x =\frac{792}{2.2}= 360 ft

And the amount for Zaid would be 1.2*360 ft= 432ft

So then Zaid construc 432 ft and Matias 360 ft
