A = L * W
L = 2W
A = 128

128 = 2W * W
128 = 2W^2
128/2 = W^2
64 = W^2
sqrt 64 = W
8 = W <== width

L = 2W
L = 2(8)
L = 16 <== length

In a certain lottery, you must select 5 numbers (in any order) out of 26 correctly to win. a. How many ways can 5 numbers be

Step2247 [10]

Answer:

a. 7893600

$b.\ \dfrac{1}{26}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that there are 26 numbers out of which 5 numbers are to be chosen.

Here repetition is not allowed.

For each of the 5 cases, the total number of possibilities will keep on decreasing by 1.

1st case, number of possibilities = 26

2nd case, number of possibilities = 25

3rd case, number of possibilities = 24

4th case, number of possibilities = 23

5th case, number of possibilities = 22

a. Total number of possibilities = 26 $\times$ 25 $\times$ 24 $\times$ 23 $\times$ 22 = <em>7893600</em>

b. Probability of winning by choosing one number:

Formula for probability of an event E can be observed as: $P(E) = \dfrac{\text{Number of favorable cases}}{\text {Total number of cases}}$

Number of favorable cases = 1

Total number of cases = 26

So, required probability:

$P(E) = \dfrac{1}{26}$

So, the answers are:

a. 7893600

$b.\ \dfrac{1}{26}$
