Brian's cholesterol level is 282 now

Step-by-step explanation:

The percentage formula will be used to calculate the present level of Cholesterol.

Given

Previous cholesterol level = 300

Percentage decrease = 6%

Decrease\ in\ cholesterol\ level = 6\%\ of\ 300\\= 0.06*300\\=18

The present cholesterol level will be:

= Previous\ level - decrease\\= 300 - 18\\=282

So,

Brian's cholesterol level is 282 now

100 percent divided by 6 (the amount of data) is 16 2/3.

Each number represents 16 2/3 percent.

3 of the numbers are either 2 or 9.

16 2/3x3=50.001

What is Permutations and Combinations?
marissa [1.9K]

Answer:

See below

Step-by-step explanation:

Permutation is to select an object then arrange it and it cares about the orders while Combination is about only selecting an object without caring the orders.

Permutation can be expressed in math as:

\displaystyle{_n P _r = \dfrac{n!}{(n-r)!} \ \ \ (n \geq r) }

where n is a number of total object and r is a number of selected object to arrange. Hence. n cannot be less than r.

Now let's see an example of permutation, suppose we have letter A, B and C. I'd like to know how many ways these words can be arranged:

Since there are 3 letters total and 3 selected letters to arrange then:

\displaystyle{_3 P _3 = \dfrac{3!}{(3-3)!}}\\\\\displaystyle{_3 P _3 = \dfrac{3 \times 2 \times 1}{0!}}\\\\\displaystyle{_3 P _3 = \dfrac{6}{1}}\\\\\displaystyle{_3 P _3 = 6}

Therefore, there are 6 ways to arrange the letters - we can also demonstrate visually:

ABC - 1

ACB - 2

BAC - 3

BCA - 4

CAB - 5

CBA - 6

Notice that if you do visually, you'll get the same answer as the calculation of permutation!

----

Combination can be expressed mathematically as:

\displaystyle{_n C _r = \dfrac{n!}{(n-r)!r!} = \dfrac{_n P _r}{r!} \ \ \ (n \geq r) }

The difference between permutation and combination is that you only find how many ways you can select object in combination. Therefore, no arrange and doesn't care about order, just ways to select.

Suppose we have same 3 letters: A, B and C. I want to find how many ways I can select these 3 letters:

Since there are 3 letters total and 3 selected letters:

\displaystyle{_3 C _3 = \dfrac{3!}{(3-3)!3!}}\\\\\displaystyle{_3 C _3 = \dfrac{3!}{0!3!}}\\\\\displaystyle{_3 C _3 = \dfrac{3!}{3!}}\\\\\displaystyle{_3 C _3 = 1}

Hence, there is only one way to select 3 letters. This makes sense because if you have 3 letters then you can only select 3 letters only one way.

Lisa and Bill made 60 magnets for a craft fair. They sold about 55% of the magnets. Lisa says they sold about 30 magnets. Bill s
koban [17]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The total number of magnets that Lisa and Bill made for the craft fair is 60.

They sold about 55% of the magnets. The number of magnets that they sold would be about

55/100 × 60 = 0.55 × 60 = 33

If Lisa says that they sold about 30 magnets, she is correct because if we round off 33 to the nearest ten, it would be 30 magnets.

If Bill says that they sold about 36 magnets, he is wrong because if we round off 36 to the nearest ten, it would be 40 magnets.
