Answer:
(a) There are 113,400 ways
(b) There are 138,600 ways
Step-by-step explanation:
The number of ways to from k groups of n1, n2, ... and nk elements from a group of n elements is calculated using the following equation:
Where n is equal to:
n=n1+n2+...+nk
If each team has two students, we can form 5 groups with 2 students each one. Then, k is equal to 5, n is equal to 10 and n1, n2, n3, n4 and n5 are equal to 2. So the number of ways to form teams are:
For part b, we can form 5 groups with 2 students or 2 groups with 2 students and 2 groups with 3 students. We already know that for the first case there are 113,400 ways to form group, so we need to calculate the number of ways for the second case as:
Replacing k by 4, n by 10, n1 and n2 by 2 and n3 and n4 by 3, we get:
So, If each team has either two or three students, The number of ways form teams are:
113,400 + 25,200 = 138,600
Given:
Diagram of a circle and its two secant from an exterior point.
To find:
The value of x.
Solution:
We know that, If two secant are on a circle from an exterior point, then the products of measure of secants and measure of external segments of secants are equal.
Using the above property, we get
Splitting the middle term, we get
Using zero product property, we get
and
and
Side cannot be negative.
Therefore, the only possible value of x is 1.
