Different starting lineups can be created - 120+60+120=300. A certain college team has on its roster 4 centers, 5 guards, 5 forwards, and one individual (x) who can play either guard or forward.

1. A lineup without x is an example. You must decide.

  • 5 quards, 2 guards;
  • two of the three forwards;
  • from 4 centers, 1 center.

It can be made as -

2C5 × 2C3× 1C4 = 10× 3×4 = 120 ways

2. Consider starting lineups with guard x. You must decide.

  • 2 guards chosen from 6 quards (at least one of them must be x);
  • two of the three forwards;
  • from 4 centers, 1 center.

1C5×2C3×1C4 = 5×3×4 = 60 ways

3. Think about lineups where x is the forward. You must decide.

  • 5 quards, 2 guards;
  • 2 forwards from 4 forwards (x must be one of them);
  • from 4 centers, 1 center.

2C5×1C3×1C4 = 10×3×4 = 120 ways.

Therefore, total number different lineups is - 120+60+120=300.

spin [16.1K]

Answer:800

Step-by-step explanation:

Mean(\mu )=\$ 4300

and P(X>6140)=0.0107

P(X>x_0)=0.0107

P\left ( \frac{X-\mu }{\sigma}

P\left ( z

\frac{x-\mu }{\sigma}=InvNormal(0.9893)

Using Z table to get InvNormal(0.9893)=2.30

\frac{6140-4300}{\sigma}=2.30

\sigma =\frac{6140-4300}{2.30}=800

Lance used two gallons of paint to pain 785 square feet. How many gallons will he need to purchase to cover 2,500 square feet?
Digiron [165]

Answer:

7 gallon

Step-by-step explanation:

Divide the space that needs paints by how much space has been painted

2500/785 = 3.18

Then double that because it takes 2 gallons to paint every 785 square feet

3.18 x 2 = 6.36

You would need 6.36 gallons of paint, which would round up to 7 because you cannot buy 0.36 of a gallon
