<u>330 ways</u><u> can the instructor choose the first group of four </u><u>education students.</u>

What is probability in math?

  • Probability is a measure of the likelihood of an event to occur. Many events cannot be predicted with total certainty.
  • We can predict only the chance of an event to occur i.e. how likely they are to happen, using it.

Given:

12 students

3 groups consisting of 4 students.

Mark can't be in the first group.

The combination formula that I used is =  n! / r!(n-r)!

where: n = number of choices ; r = number of people to be chosen.

This is the formula I used because the order is not important and repetition is not allowed.

Since Mark can't be considered in the first group, the value of n would be 11 instead of 12. value of r is 4.

numerator: n! = 11! = 39,916,800

denominator: r!(n-r)! = 4!(11-4)! = 4!*7! = 120,960

Combination = 39,916,800 / 120,960 = 330

Therefore, There are 330 ways that the instructor can choose 4 students for the first group.

I think the scale factor of one block to the arrangement would be 1/9, since the arrangement contains 9 blocks.

So if the length at the top is 12 cm, the length of the bottom of a trapezoid would be 12(1/9) = 4/3

Since we know that each trapezoid holds 3 equilateral triangles, the length of each side and the top of the trapezoidal would be 4/3 x 1/2 = 2/3 cm

The sum of the angles must equal 360 degrees, and because they are made of equilateral triangles, you know that each angle of the triangle must be 60 degrees. So the bottom two angles of the trapezoid are each 60 degrees, and the top two are 360- 120 = 240 divided by 2 angles = 120 degrees each.

wlad13 [49]

Answer:

1. y² - 3x - 18

2. 4x² - 33x + 35

3. 12x² - 11x + 2

Step-by-step explanation:

All we do with these questions are expanding the factored binomials. Use FOIL:

1. y² + 3y - 6y - 18

y² - 3y - 18

2. 4x² - 28x - 5x + 35

4x² - 33x + 35

3. 12x² - 3x - 8x + 2

12x² - 11x + 2

Ber [7]

Answer:

A customer who sends 78 messages per day would be at 99.38th percentile.

Step-by-step explanation:

Normal Probability Distribution:

Problems of normal distributions can be solved using the z-score formula.

In a set with mean \mu and standard deviation \sigma, the z-score of a measure X is given by:

Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}

The Z-score measures how many standard deviations the measure is from the mean. After finding the Z-score, we look at the z-score table and find the p-value associated with this z-score. This p-value is the probability that the value of the measure is smaller than X, that is, the percentile of X. Subtracting 1 by the p-value, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.

Average of 48 texts per day with a standard deviation of 12.

This means that \mu = 48, \sigma = 12

a. A customer who sends 78 messages per day would correspond to what percentile?

The percentile is the p-value of Z when X = 78. So

Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}

Z = \frac{78 - 48}{12}

Z = 2.5

Z = 2.5 has a p-value of 0.9938.

0.9938*100% = 99.38%.

A customer who sends 78 messages per day would be at 99.38th percentile.
