The different ways that the students can elect a president and a vice president will be 13110.

<h3>What is probability?</h3>

The chances of an event occurring are defined by probability. Probability has several uses in games, in business to create probability-based forecasts,

Given data;

Total no of students = 115

The total number of ways to elect a president = 115

If one person is elected as the president the total number of ways to elect a president = 114

The different ways that the students can elect a president and a vice president are found as;

⇒ 115 ways × 114 ways

⇒ 13110 ways

Hence the different ways that the students can elect a president and a vice president will be 13110.

A regular hexagonal prism has an edge length 12 cm, and height 10 cm. Identify the volume of the prism to the nearest tenth.

Alexeev081 [22]

Check the picture below.

so the volume will simply be the area of the hexagonal face times the height.

$\textit{area of a regular polygon}\\\\ A=\cfrac{1}{4}ns^2\stackrel{\qquad degrees}{\cot\left( \frac{180}{n} \right)}~~ \begin{cases} n=\stackrel{number~of}{sides}\\ s=\stackrel{length~of}{side}\\[-0.5em] \hrulefill\\ n=6\\ s=12 \end{cases}\implies A=\cfrac{1}{4}(6)(12)^2\cot\left( \frac{180}{6} \right) \\\\\\ A=216\cot(30^o)\implies A=216\sqrt{3} \\\\[-0.35em] ~\dotfill\\\\ \stackrel{\textit{area of the hexagon}}{(216\sqrt{3})}~~\stackrel{height}{(10)}\implies 2160\sqrt{3}~~\approx ~~3741.2~cm^3$

Patricia and Joe Payne are divorced. The divorce settlement stipulated that Joe pay $485 a month for their daughter Suzanne unti

zhuklara [117]

$\bf \qquad \qquad \textit{Future Value of an ordinary annuity}
\\\\
A=pymnt\left[ \cfrac{\left( 1+\frac{r}{n} \right)^{nt}-1}{\frac{r}{n}} \right]$

$\bf \begin{cases}
A=
\begin{array}{llll}
\textit{original amount}\\
\textit{already compounded}
\end{array} &
\begin{array}{llll}

\end{array}\\
pymnt=\textit{periodic payments}\to &
\begin{array}{llll}
485\cdot 12\\
\underline{5280}
\end{array}\\
r=rate\to 6\%\to \frac{6}{100}\to &0.06\\
n=
\begin{array}{llll}
\textit{times it compounds per year}\\
\textit{a year, thus once}
\end{array}\to &1\\

t=years\to &4
\end{cases}
\\\\\\
$

$\bf A=5280\left[ \cfrac{\left( 1+\frac{0.06}{1} \right)^{1\cdot 4}-1}{\frac{0.06}{1}} \right]$

Joe is making $485 payments monthly, but the amount gets interest on a yearly basis, not monthly, so the amount that yields interest is 485*12

also, keep in mind, we're assuming is compound interest, as opposed to simple interest
