Ranking is very critical in this problem. Therefore, the most applicable mathematical theory is permutations.
Ranking possible for the cellists:
Needed cellists = 5
Total available cellists = 10
Possible number of rankings = 10P5 = 10!/(10-5)! = 30240
Ranking possible for the violinists:
Needed violinists = 5
Total available = 16
Possible number of rankings = 16P5 = 16!/(16-5)! = 524160
Therefore,
Ratio of rankings (cellists to violinists) = 30240/524160 = 3/52
Answer:
36
Step-by-step explanation:
if we were decreasing it would be 9 but if we are increasing it, it would be 36
just multiply by 2 or divide by 2

Answer:
1.05 × 1.05 × 1.05 × 1.05 × 1.05 = 1.2762815625
Step-by-step explanation:
An exponent indicates how many times the base is a factor in the product. That is, 1.05 to the 5th power means ...
1.05⁵ = 1.05 × 1.05 × 1.05 × 1.05 × 1.05
This multiplication expression is evaluated in the usual way.
= 1.1025 × 1.05 × 1.05 × 1.05
= 1.157625 × 1.05 × 1.05
= 1.21550625 × 1.05
= 1.2762815625

All scientific and graphing calculators have a button for computing the power of a number. On my calculator its label is . The particulars of the function of this button can be found in the manual for your calculator.
For on-line calculators, such as the go.ogle calculator, or the Desmos graphing calculator, the caret (^) is used to signify an exponent. (See the input line in the first attachment for an example.)
