17. The Bricklayer needs 100 pieces of angle, each to be cut 54 3/16" long. 1 point

1 answer:

5 0

The number of cuts from a 20% length is 2 and the number of 20' angle are needed in order to have the 100 pieces is 5

<h3>How to determine the number</h3>

From the information given;

The bricklayer needs = 100 pieces of angle

The number of cuts = 54

Length of cuts = 3/ 16'' Inches

a. To determine the number of cuts form a 20% length, we have to multiply the length by the percentage and by the initial number of cuts

= 20/ 100 × 3/ 16 × 54

= 0. 2 × 0. 1875 × 54

= 2. 0

The number of cuts would be 2

b. To determine the number of pieces of 20' angle to have 100 pieces we would divide the initial number of pieces by the angle

= 100/ 20

= 5 pieces

The number of pieces of 20' angle is 5

Thus, the number of cuts from a 20% length is 2 and the number of 20' angle are needed in order to have the 100 pieces is 5

A group of three undergraduate and five graduate students are available to fill certain student government posts. If four studen

creativ13 [48]

Answer:

$Pr = 0.4286$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Let

$U \to\\$ Undergraduates

$G \to$ Graduates

So, we have:

$U = 3; G =5$ -- Total students

$r = 4$ --- students to select

Required

$P(U =2)$

From the question, we understand that 2 undergraduates are to be selected; This means that 2 graduates are to be selected.

First, we calculate the total possible selection (using combination)

$^nC_r = \frac{n!}{(n-r)!r!}$

So, we have:

$Total = ^{U + G}C_r$

$Total = ^{3 + 5}C_4$

$Total = ^8C_4$

$Total = \frac{8!}{(8-4)!4!}$

$Total = \frac{8!}{4!4!}$

Using a calculator, we have:

$Total = 70$

The number of ways of selecting 2 from 3 undergraduates is:

$U = ^3C_2$

$U = \frac{3!}{(3-2)!2!}$

$U = \frac{3!}{1!2!}$

$U = 3$

The number of ways of selecting 2 from 5 graduates is:

$G = ^5C_2$

$G = \frac{5!}{(5-2)!2!}$

$G = \frac{5!}{3!2!}$

$G =10$

So, the probability is:

$Pr = \frac{G * U}{Total}$

$Pr = \frac{10*3}{70}$

$Pr = \frac{30}{70}$

$Pr = 0.4286$
