Of n elements, there are {}_nC_r=\dfrac{n!}{r!(n-r)!} ways of choosing any r elements. So the number of subsets that can be chosen from the set of 13 elements, each consisting of 4 to 8 elements, is

\displaystyle\sum_{r=4}^8{}_{13}C_r={}_{13}C_4+\cdots+{}_{13}C_8=6721

To compute the actual numbers, you have, for example,

{}_{13}C_4=\dfrac{13!}{4!(13-4)!}=\dfrac{13!}{4!9!}
=\dfrac{13\times12\times\cdots\times6\times5}{9\times8\times\cdots\times2\times1}
=\dfrac{13\times12\times11\times10}{4\times3\times2\times1}
=13\times11\times5
=715

so there are 715 ways of picking subsets of size 4. Compute the others similarly, then add them up.

Ralph Chase plans to sell a piece of property for ​$150000. He wants the money to be paid off in two ways a - ​short-term note a
Artyom0805 [142]

Answer:

Amount on 11% note = $106,666.67

Amount on 8% note = $43,333.33

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the amount for the ​short-term note at ​11% interest be x.

Thus, the amount for the ​short-term note at ​8% interest will be (150000 - x)

Now we are told that the total interest paid is $15,200.

Thus;

0.11x + 0.08(150000 - x) = 15200

0.11x + 12000 - 0.08x = 15200

Rearranging gives;

0.03x = 15200 - 12000

0.03x = 3200

x = 3200/0.03

x = $106666.67

Thus, amount for 8% note = $150000 - $106666.67 = $43,333.33

Which of the following statements best describes the effect of replacing the graph of y = f(x) with the graph of y = f(x − 9)? T
egoroff_w [7]

Answer:

The graph of y = f(x) will shift to the right 9 units.

Step-by-step explanation:

Despite some lack of clarity, because usually this equality is in terms of x and y. Let's do it.

Taking f(x) as its parent function in other words

y=f(x)

Testing some values:

x|y

0|0

1|1

2|2

Adding to the function  -9 units is to shift it to the right

y=f(x-9)

Testing some values to certify:

x|y

-9|0-9

-8|1-9

-7|2-9

blsea [12.9K]

7(3 \times x + 4) + 2 < 156 \\ 21 \times x + 28 + 2 < 156 \\ 21 \times x + 30 < 156 \\ 21 \times x < 156 - 30 \\ 21 \times x < 126 \\ x  <   \frac{126}{21}  \\ x < 6

Twenty-four students took a test. Fourteen students earned an A and 10 students earned a B. A student will be randomly chosen.
Alex_Xolod [135]
The probability of a student that earned an A on the test is 7/12.

To get a fraction like this, you put the number of students on the left, or the top and the number of students total on the right, or bottom. Then, you simplify your answer. This brings us to 7/12. You cannot simplify any further because the fraction includes a prime number.


I hope this helps!
