Answer:

462 ways

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula to use in solving this problem is given as the Combination formula

The Combination formula is given as

C(n , r) = nCr = n!/r! (n - r)!

We are told that a food bakery has 12 pies unsold at the end of the day which they intend to share to 6 food banks

n = 12, r = 6

In order to ensure that at least 1 food bank gets 1 pie, we have:

n - 1 = 12 - 1 = 11

r - 1 = 6 - 1 = 5

Hence,

C(11, 5) = 11C5

= 11!/ 5! ×(11 - 5)!

= 11!/5! × 6!

= (11 × 10 × 9 × 8 × 7 × 6 × 5 × 4 × 3 × 2 × 1)/ (5 × 4 × 3 × 2 × 1) ×( 6 × 5 × 4 × 3 × 2 × 1)

= 462 ways

Ona took a random sample of 20 soccer teams across Europe. She tracked the average number of goals
anygoal [31]

The predicted number of wins for a team that averages 1.5 goals per game will be 17 according to the regression model.

From the table given, the linear regression model for the data can be expressed as :

  • y = 14.02x - 3.64 ; where ;
  • y = Predicted number of wins ;
  • x = average number of goals per match ;
  • slope = 14.02 ;
  • Intercept = - 3.64

<u>The Number of wins for a team which averages 1.5 goals per match can be calculated thus</u> :

Average goals per match, x = 1.5

Substitute x = 1.5 into the equation :

y = 14.02(1.5) - 3.64

y = 17.39

y = 17 (nearest whole number)

What is the exact area of the following circle?
pychu [463]

Answer:

56.25 pi  cm^2

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the area of the circle,

we use the formula

A = pi r^2, where r is the radius

We know the diameter is 15 so we can find the  radius from

r = d/2  where d is the diameter

r = 15/2

A = pi ( 15/2) ^2

A = pi ( 225/4)

A = 56.25 pi  cm^2
