A bag contains 10 tiles with the letters A, B, C, D, E, F, G, H, I, and J. Five tiles are chosen, one at a time, and placed in a

I assume in this item, we are to find at which step is the mistake done for the calculation of the unknown probability.
For the possible number of arrangement of letter, n(S), the basic principles of counting should be used.
= 10 x 9 x 8 x 7 x 6 = 30,240
This is similar as to what was done in Meghan's work.
For the five tiles to spell out FACED, there is only one (1) possibility.
Therefore, the probability should be equal to 1/30,240 instead of the 1/252 which was presented in the steps above.
Find the slope of the line connecting (1990,435000) and (2005,482300):
482300-435000 47300
m = ----------------------- = ---------------- = 3153/yr (approx)
2005 - 1990 15 yr
Use the point-slope formula to find the equation of this str. line:
y-435000 = (3153/yr)(x-1990)
The year 2020 is 30 years after 1990. Thus, the expected pop in 2020 is
given by y-435000 = 3153(30) = 94590, so that y = 529590.
Answer:
Its the same formula that your using to find a regular object as an irregular one. The only difference is that your adding the formula of multiple shapes together since an irregular shape consists of multiple regular ones
hope this helps!
