There are 8 members on a board of directors. if they must form a subcommittee of 6 members, how many different subcommittees are
1 answer:
1. Given a group of n people. There are C(n, r) ways of forming groups of r out of n.
2. Where C(n, r)=
3. For example, given {Andy, John, Julia}. We want to pick 2 people to give a gift: we can pick {(Andy, John), (Andy, Julia), (John, Julia)}, so there are 3 ways. So we can list and count.
4. Or we could do this with the formula C(3, 2)=
5. C(8, 6)=
So there are C(8,6)=28 ways of chosing 6 out of 8 people to form the subcommittees. <span />

Answer:
a) Mean=0 and Standard deviation=1
b) The z-scores have no units of measurement
Step-by-step explanation:
When we convert all the pulse rates of women to z-scores using the formula;
the mean is 0 and the standard deviation is 1.
The reason is that, the resulting distribution of z-scores forms a normal distribution which has a mean of 0 and a standard deviation of 1.
b) The z-scores are standardize scores and has no units of measurement. They give us how many standard deviations below or above the mean of the corresponding values.
