The number of ways can the committee be organized will be 2220075. Then the correct option is 3.

<h3>What are permutation and combination?</h3>

A permutation is an act of putting things or elements in the right sequence. Combinations are a method of picking things or pieces from a collection of objects or sets when the sequence of the objects is irrelevant.

The prom committee is made up of 8 boys and girls.

If there are 12 boys and 15 girls in the group to pick the committee from.

Then the number of ways can the committee be organized will be

Then the number of ways is given by the combination formula. Then we have

Number of ways = ¹²C₀ x ¹⁵C₈ + ¹²C₁ x ¹⁵C₇ + ¹²C₂ x ¹⁵C₆ + ¹²C₃ x ¹⁵C₅ + ¹²C₄ x ¹⁵C₄ + ¹²C₅ x ¹⁵C₃ + ¹²C₆ x ¹⁵C₂ + ¹²C₇ x ¹⁵C₁ +¹²C₈ x ¹⁵C₀

Number of ways = 6435 + 77220 + 330330 + 660660 + 675675 + 360360 + 97020 + 11880 + 495

Number of ways = 2220075

Thus, the correct option is 3.

More about the permutation and the combination link is given below.

Sam colors each tile in a 4 by 4 grid white or black. A coloring is called rotationally
DiKsa [7]

Answer:

  65,280

Step-by-step explanation:

Consider the 4×4 grid ...

  \left[\begin{array}{cc}a&b\\d&c\end{array}\right]

where each of a, b, c, d is a 2×2 array of tiles. Let's use the notation a' to represent the 2×2 array "a" rotated right 1/4 turn. For 90° rotational symmetry, we must have b=a', c=b'=a'', d=c'=b''=a'''. That is, once "a" is determined, the rest of the grid is determined. Since "a" consists of 4 tiles, each of which can be black or white, there are 2^4 = 16 patterns that have 90° rotational symmetry.

The same will be true of 270° rotational symmetry, for the same reason.

__

For 180° rotational symmetry, we must have c=a'' and d=b''. Then the combination of "a" and "b" together fully determines the grid. Together, "a" and "b" consist of 8 tiles, so there are 2^8 = 256 ways to pattern the grid so it will have 180° rotational symmetry. (Of those, 16 have 90° symmetry, and 16 have 270° symmetry. The sets are overlapping.)

__

The 16 tiles of the grid can be colored 2^16 = 65,536 different ways. As we have seen, 256 of those colorings result in 180° rotational symmetry. Then the number of colorings that have no rotational symmetry is ...

  65,536 -256 = 65,280 . . . . colorings not rotationally symmetric

The length of a rectangle is 3 more than twice the width. The area of the rectangle is 119 square inches. What are the dimension
ddd [48]
L = 3 + 2w

119 = w × ( 3 + 2w )
119 = 3w + 2w^2
2w^2 + 3w - 119 = 0
( w - 7 ) ( 2w + 11 ) = 0
w = 7
x = w
x = 7
