Answer:

There are 2450 ways.

Step-by-step explanation:

We can pick first the 4 man, and then the 4 women. The configuration of men and women are independant with each other, so the total of possibilities is obtained by multiplying the total possibilities to pick 4 men and the total possibilities of picking 4 women.

To pick 4 men from a group of 8, the total number of possibilities is the amount of ways to pick 4 elements from a group of 8. This number is represented by the combinatorial number of 8 with 4

{8 \choose 4} = \frac{8!}{4!4!} = 70

To pick 4 women from a group of 7, we need to count the total amount of ways to pick 4 elements from a group of 7. This is the combinatorial number of 8 with 7

{7 \choose 4} = \frac{7!}{4!3!} = 35

Hence, the total amount of ways to pick 4 men and 4 women from a group of 8 men and 7 women is 70*35 = 2450.

What is the area of the sector with a central angle of 97 degrees and a diameter of 10cm
vampirchik [111]

Answer:

21. 162 (rounded to nearest thousandth)

Step-by-step explanation:

Area of a sector: (degree/360) (pi*radius^2)

degree given= 97

radius= diameter/2 = 5

(97/360) (pi*5^2)

(97/360) (pi*25) = 21.16211718

52= -5x -3 can you solve for x
Roman55 [17]

Answer:

x = -11

Step-by-step explanation:

First, add three to both sides on the equation. Then, your equation becomes 55= -5x. Finally, divide both sides by -5 to get -11 = x. So, x equals -11. Hope this helps!
