Answer:

(a) How many are there to select 2 pairs of gloves?

10 ways

(b) How many ways are there to select 4 gloves out of the 10 such that 2 of the 4 make a pair. (a pair consists of any right glove and left glove.)

130 ways

Step-by-step explanation:

We solve the above questions using Combination

Combination = C(n, r) = nCr

= n!/n! ×(n - r)!

(a) How many are there to select 2 pairs of gloves?

We have 5 pairs of gloves. Therefore, the number of ways to select 2 gloves =5C2

= 5!/2! × (5 - 2)!

= 5!/2! × 3!

= 5 × 4 × 3 × 2 × 1/(2 × 1) × (3 × 2 × 1)!

= 10 ways.

(b) How many ways are there to select 4 gloves out of the 10 such that 2 of the 4 make a pair. (a pair consists of any right glove and left glove.)

We are told to select 4 gloves out of the 10 gloves = 10C4

We have 5 pairs, we need to make sure that two out of the selected 4 make a pair = 5 × 2⁴

= 80

Hence,

10C4 - 5C4

= [10!/4! × (10 - 4)!] - 80

= 210 - 80

= 130 ways

Rewrite (123 + 456) + 789 using the Associative Law of Addition
adelina 88 [10]

Answer:

123 + (456 + 789)

Step-by-step explanation:

since this is an addition problem, the parenthesis don't matter, and they can be put wherever you want.

(123 + 456) + 789

123 + 456 + 789

(123 + 456 + 789)

123 + (456 + 789)

technically, any of these would work, but I think the kind of answer the problem is looking for is;

123 + (456 + 789)

Help pls i need this luv you guys ,<333

Answer:

x ≈ 3.1 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

The segment from the centre to the chord is a perpendicular bisector, thus

The triangle is right with base = \frac{1}{2} x

Applying Pythagoras' identity to the right triangle, then

(\frac{1}{2} x )² + 1.4² = 2.1²

\frac{1}{4} x² + 1.96 = 4.41 ( subtract 1.96 from both sides )

\frac{1}{4} x² = 2.45 ( multiply both sides by 4 )

x² = 9.8 ( take the square root of both sides )

x = \sqrt{9.8} ≈ 3.1 ft ( to the nearest tenth )
