1. State if each scenario involves a permutation or a combination. Then find the number of possibilities:(a) Castel and Joe are

planning trips to three countries this year. There are 7 countries they would like to visit. One trip will be one week long, another two days, and the other two weeks.(b) You are setting the combination on a three-digit lock. You want to use the numbers 123 but don't care what order they are in.(c) A group of 25 people are going to run a race. The top 8 finishers advance to the finals.

Answer:

a) This is a permutation, there are 210 ways to do it

b) This is a permutation with 6 possibilities

c) This is a combination with a total of 1081575 possibilities

Step-by-step explanation:

a) Here the order does matter bacause it is not the same that they go to France in the weak trip than they go there for 2 days, as a result, this scenario is a permutation.

You need to pick 3 countries from a total of 7, but the order matters, so the total amount of ways to do this is

{7 \choose 3} * 3! = \frac{7!}{(7-3)!} = 210

b) Here each permutation of 123 will give you a possible (and a different one from the others) lock-combination, so this is again a permutation.

The total amount of ways we have to do the selectio of the lock-combination is the total amount of permutations of a set of 3 elements, in other words, it is 3! = 6.

c) If you only cares about who advances to the finals, then the order doesnt matter here, you just want 8 people out of the 25 available. This is therefore a combination, and the total amount of possible cases are

{25 \choos 8} = 1081575 .

Find the sum of all the integers from 1 to 100 that are not multiples of 7
Mars2501 [29]

Answer:

4343

Step-by-step explanation:

To find multiple of 7 from 1 to 100,

Take the quotient of 100/7=14

n=100 (number of terms)

n=100-14 (Without Multiple of 7=number of terms - multiple of 7)

=>n=86

Sum of 1 to 100 => Sn = n/2(a + an)

                          => Sn = 86/2(1+100)

                          => Sn = 43(101)

                          => Sn = 4343

Find the surface area of the figure
belka [17]

Answer:

122.30 cm²

Step-by-step explanation:

The figure is a triangular prism.

Formula for calculating surface area of a triangular prism = bh + L(S1 + S2 + S3)

Where,

b = 11 cm

h = 4.3 cm

S1 = 8 cm

S2 = 6 cm

S3 = 11 cm

L = 3 cm

Surface area = 11*4.3 + 3(8 + 6 + 11)

= 47.3 + 3(25)

= 122.3 cm²
