This is a combination problem.

Given:
12 students
3 groups consisting of 4 students.
Mark can't be in the first group.

The combination formula that I used is: n! / r!(n-r)!
where: n = number of choices ; r = number of people to be chosen.

This is the formula I used because the order is not important and repetition is not allowed. 

Since Mark can't be considered in the first group, the value of n would be 11 instead of 12. value of r is 4.

numerator: n! = 11! = 39,916,800
denominator: r!(n-r)! = 4!(11-4)! = 4!*7! = 120,960

Combination = 39,916,800 / 120,960 = 330

There are 330 ways that the instructor can choose 4 students for the first group

Any one know how to find the roots of an equation?
soldier1979 [14.2K]
So what you do is
make into ax^2+bx+c=0 form

add-9/2 to both sides
y^2-2y+9/2=0
now we use the quadratice formula which is
x=\frac{-b+/- \sqrt{b^{2}-4ac} }{2a}

ax^2+bx+c=0
1y^2-2y+9/2
a=1
b=-2
c=9/2
subsitute
x=\frac{-(-2)+/- \sqrt{(-2)^{2}-4(1)(9/2)} }{2(1)}
x=\frac{2+/- \sqrt{4-(36/2)} }{2}
x=\frac{2+/- \sqrt{4-(18)} }{2}
x=\frac{2+/- \sqrt{-14} }{2}
x=\frac{2+/- \sqrt{-14} }{2}
x=1+/- \frac{\sqrt{-14} }{2}
x=1+/- \frac{\sqrt{14} \sqrt{-1}}{2}
x=1+/- \frac{\sqrt{14} i }{2}
x=1+/- \frac{ i \sqrt{14} }{2}

answer is C

if Chelsea has 11 times as many art. Brushes and they have 60 art brushes altogether how many brushes does Chelsea have
scoundrel [369]
<span>t's call P the number of art brushes that Monique has. Chelsea has 11xP (that is 11 times as many as Monique) Together they have: P + 11xP = 12xP That means 12xP = 60 (60 is the number of art brushes they have together) In order to find how much is P, we need to divide: 60 Ă· 12 = 5 brushes P = 5 ; that means has Monique 5 art brushes. Chelsea has 11 times as many art brushes as Monique: 11 x 5 = 55 brushes</span>
