Answer:

The number of expected people at the concert is 8,500 people

Step-by-step explanation:

In this question, we are asked to determine the expected number of people that will attend a concert if we are given the probabilities that it will rain and it will not rain.

We proceed as follows;

The probability that it will rain is 30% or 0:3

The probability that it will not rain would be 1 -0.3 = 0.7

Now, we proceed to calculate the number of people that will attend by multiplying the probabilities by the expected number of people when it rains and when it does not rain.

Mathematically this is;

Number of expected guests = (probability of not raining * number of expected guests when it does not rain) + (probability of raining * number of expected guests when it rains)

Let’s plug values;

Number of expected guests = (0.3 * 5,000) + (0.7 * 10,000) = 1,500 + 7,000 = 8,500 people

NNADVOKAT [17]

Answer:

35

Step-by-step explanation:

7 orchids can be lined as 7!. This means that for the first orchid of the line, you can select 7 options. When you place the first orchid, for the second option you can select among 6 since 1 orchid has already been placed. Similarly, for the 3rd orchid of the line, you have left 5 options. The sequence goes in this fashion and for 7 orchids, you have 7*6*5*4*3*2*1 possibilities. However, there is a restriction here. 3 of the orchids are white and 4 are levender. This means that it does not make a difference if we line 3 white orchids in an arbitrary order since it will seem the same from the outside. As a result, the options for lining the 7 orchids diminish. The reduction should eliminate the number of different lining within the same colors. Similar to 7! explanation above, 3 white orchids can be lined as 3! and 4 levender orchids can be lined as 4!. To eliminate these options, we divide all options by the restrictions. The result is:

$\frac{7!}{4!*3!}$ = 35. [(7*6*5*4*3*2*1/(4*3*2*1*3*2*1)]
