It is given that there are 41 males and 48 females in the small school.
So, the number of ways a male student can be chosen from 41 males is 
Likewise, the number of ways a female student can be chosen from 48 females is
.
Thus, the total number of ways in which 2-person combinations are possible to represent the student body at the PTSAC meetings will be given by:

Answer:
nice
Step-by-step explanation:
<span>"The company pays $55 a day for food and lodging and $0.45 for each mile traveled" means that if she travels
m miles and is on a trip for
x days then Rita will receive:
55x + 0.45m dollars.
Rita drove 300 miles, means that m=300. Thus </span>
55x + 0.45m becomes <span>
</span>

(dollars.)
She was reimbursed $2,335 means that

.
Part A:

.
Part B:
We are given the equation 55x+135=2,335. Subtracting 135 from both sides we have:
55x=2,335-135=2,200.
Dividing both sides by 55, we get: x=2,200/55=40.
Part C: since x represents the number of days Rita spend on this trip, and x=40, then Rita spent 40 days on this trip.
