If I paid $9.00 for 4 lb of candies, how much candies can I buy for $12.00?

Lina20 [59]

Answer:

We are given that 4 lb of candies are bought for $9.00

Therefore, the price of 1 lb of candies is:

$\frac{9}{4}=2.25$

Now the amount of candies that can bought for $12.00 is:

$\frac{12}{2.25} =5.3333$ lb

Therefore, 5.3333 lb of candies can be bought for $12.00

15 players for a softball team show up for a game: (a) How many ways are there to choose 10 players to take the field? 3003 (b)

prohojiy [21]

Answer:

(a) 3003 ways

(b) 10897286400 ways

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

$n = 15$ --- 15 players

Solving (a) Ways of selecting 10 players.

This implies combination.

So, we have:

$r=10$

Using:

$^nC_r = \frac{n!}{(n-r)!r!}$

We have:

$^{15}C_{10} = \frac{15!}{(15-10)!10!}$

$^{15}C_{10} = \frac{15!}{5!10!}$

Simplify

$^{15}C_{10} = \frac{15*14*13*12*11*10!}{5!10!}$

$^{15}C_{10} = \frac{15*14*13*12*11}{5!}$

$^{15}C_{10} = \frac{15*14*13*12*11}{5*4*3*2*1}$

$^{15}C_{10} = \frac{360360}{120}$

$^{15}C_{10} = 3003$

Solving (b) Ways of assigning positions to 10 players.

This implies permutation.

So, we have:

$r=10$

Using:

$^nP_r = \frac{n!}{(n-r)!}$

We have:

$^{15}P_{10} = \frac{15!}{(15-10)!}$

$^{15}P_{10} = \frac{15!}{5!}$

Solve each factorial

$^{15}P_{10} = \frac{1307674368000}{120}$

$^{15}P_{10} = 10897286400$

Solving (c) Ways of choosing at least 1 woman

We have:

$Men = 10$

$Women = 5$

Ways of selecting 10 players is: (a) 3003 ways

Since the number of men are 10, there is 1 way of selecting 10 men (i.e. selection without women)

Using complement rule:

At least 1 woman = Total - No woman

$At\ least\ 1\ woman = 3003 - 1$

$At\ least\ 1\ woman = 3002$
