Height of each floor = 5 meters
time to travel from the first floor to 68th floor = ?
Speed of elevator = 7.5m/s
While an elevator travels from 1st floor to 68th floor, we will multiply the height of floor with 67 to get the distance covered by the elevator form 1st floor to 68th floor, the height of 68th floor will not be counted in the distance because an elevator reaches the 68th floor not covered the height of that floor.
Distance = 5 x 67 = 335m
Now calculate the time by using the formula;
time = distance / speed
= 335m / 7.5m/s
= 44.667 seconds
Thus, an elevator will take 44.667 seconds to reach 68th floor.

Airida [17]

Answer:

The manager can select a team in 61425 ways.

Step-by-step explanation:

The order in which the cashiers and the kitchen crews are selected is not important. So we use the combinations formula to solve this question.

Combinations formula:

C_{n,x} is the number of different combinations of x objects from a set of n elements, given by the following formula.

C_{n,x} = \frac{n!}{x!(n-x)!}

In how many ways can the manager select a team?

2 cashiers from a set of 10.

4 kitchen crews from a set of 15. So

T = C_{10,2}*C_{15,4} = \frac{10!}{2!(10-2)!}*\frac{15!}{4!(15-4)!} = 45*1365 = 61425

The manager can select a team in 61425 ways.
