Exercise topic: Permutations and Combinations. A company wants to hire 3 new employees, but there are 8 candidates, 6 of them wh

SOVA2 [1]

Answer:

(a) 56 ways

(b) 6 ways

(c) 56 ways

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

candidates: 6 mail, 1 female

number to hire : 3

a) In how many different ways can choose new employees?

use the combination formula to choose r to hire out of n candidates

C(n,r) = C(8,3) = 8! / (3! (8-3)! ) = 40320 / (120*6) = 56 ways

b) In how many different ways can choose a single male candidate?

6 ways to choose a male, one way to choose two female, so 6*1 = 6 ways

c) In how many different ways can choose at least one male candidate?

To choose at least 1 male candidate, we subtract the ways to choose no male candidates out of 56.

Since there are only two females, there is no way to choose 3 female candidates.

In other words, there are 56-0 = 56 ways (as in part (a) ) to hire 3 employees with at least one male candidate.

Answer:

48

Step-by-step explanation:

So I attached an image explaining how I solved the problem, but essentially you use the Pythagorean Theorem to define the two other sides, which I named "a" and "b", and then defined them in terms of x, using the Pythagorean Theorem. I finally defined the hypotenuse of the entire triangle which is 36+64 in terms of these two equations. Once that entire thing was set up it was a matter of solving for x, to get 48
