Answer:

6 inches.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let a represent side length of larger square.

We know that area of square is square of its side length, so area of the larger square will be a^2.

The area of smaller square would be 4^2.

We will use proportions to solve our given problem.

\frac{\text{Area of smaller square}}{\text{Area of larger square}}=\frac{4}{9}

\frac{4^2}{a^2}=\frac{4}{9}

\frac{16}{a^2}=\frac{4}{9}

Cross multiply:

4*a^2=16*9

\frac{4*a^2}{4}=\frac{16*9}{4}

a^2=36

Take square root:

a=\pm\sqrt{36}

a=\pm 6

Since the length cannot be negative, therefore, the side length of larger square is 6 inches.

A group consists of 6 men and 5 women. Five people are selected to attend a conference. In how many ways can 5 people be selecte
cluponka [151]

Answer:

462

6

1.2%

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the questions are combinations, we must apply the combination formula, which is as follows:

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

Because there are 6 men and 5 women, there are a total of 11 people.

Thus:

n = 11

In the first question in how many ways can 5 people be selected from this group of 11, r = 5.

Replacing in the formula:

11 C 5 = (11!) / (5! * (11-5)!)

11 C 5 = (11!) / (5! * 6!)

11 C 5 = 462

In the second question, in how many ways can 5 men be selected from the 6 men, here n = 6 and r = 5, replacing we are left with:

6 C 5 = (6!) / (5! * (6-5)!)

6 C 5 = (6!) / (5! * 1!)

6 C 5 = 6

In the last question of what is the probability that the selected group is all men, we have that it is the combination of the two previous questions. Since the total would be part A it would be the total of the combinations of choosing 5 of 11 people and part B of the 6 men that there are the combinations of choosing 5.

Divide the two values ​​from parts A and B to get ...

(result from part B) / (result from part A) = (# of ways to pick 5 men) / (# of ways to pick 5 people)

(result from part B) / (result from part A) = 6/462

(result from part B) / (result from part A) = 0.012

In other words, the probability is 1.2%
