Answer: 1584

Step-by-step explanation:

The number of ways to choose r people out of n is given by Combination ( where order does not matter) and the formula to find them is

C(n,r)=\frac{n!}{r!(n-r)!}

Now , it is given that

A blood bank needs 8 people to help with a blood drive. 11 people have volunteered.

Then, the number of different groups of 8 can be formed from the 11 volunteers =

C(11,9)=\frac{11!}{8!(11-8)!}

=\frac{11*10*9*8}{8!3!}

=\frac{7920}{5}

=1584

Hence, the number of different groups of 8 can be formed from the 11 volunteers = 1584

Answer:

165

Step-by-step explanation:

formula is

nCr = n!/(r!(n−r)!)

r= 8 = number of choosing objects from the set

n = 11 = total number of objects in the set

C(n,r)=C(11,8)

=11!/(8!(11−8)!)

! means factorial

factorial means to multiply by decreasing positive numbers.

For example, 8! = 8 ∗ 7 ∗ 6 ∗ 5 ∗ 4 ∗ 3 ∗ 2 ∗ 1 = 40320

=11!/8!×3!

= 165

You are dealt one card from 52 card deck. Find the possibility that you are dealt a heart or a picture card
PIT_PIT [208]

Answer:

<h2>11/26</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have 13 heart card then

p(heart) = 13/52

Since we have 12 picture card then

p(picture) = 12/52

Since we have 3 heart and picture (at the same time) card then

p(heart∩picture) = 3/52

finally,

the possibility that you are dealt a heart or a picture card = p(heart or picture)

p(heart or picture) = 13/52 + 12/52 - 3/52 = 22/52

Point K is on line segment JL. Given KL = 2x – 2, JL = 4x + 9, and
sergeinik [125]

Answer:

JL = 21

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that K is on line segment JL, therefore:

KL + JK = JL (according to segment addition postulate)

KL = 2x - 2

JK = 5x + 2

JL = 4x + 9

Thus:

(2x - 2) + (5x + 2) = (4x + 9)

Solve for x

2x - 2 + 5x + 2 = 4x + 9

2x +5x - 2 + 2 = 4x + 9

7x = 4x + 9

Subtract 4x from both sides

7x - 4x = 4x + 9 - 4x

3x = 9

Divide both sides by 3

\frac{3x}{3} = \frac{9}{3}

x = 3

Find the numerical length of JL

JL = 4x + 9

Plug in the value of x

JL = 4(3) + 9 = 12 + 9 = 21
