Answer:

a) 2450

b) 1890

c) 1050

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

- Available Group = 9 M & 7 F

- Committee of= 4 M and 4 W to be formed

Find:

- (a) 2 of the men refuse to serve together?

- (a) 2 of the women refuse to serve together?

- (a) 1 man and 1 woman refuse to serve together?

Solution:

- The question pertains to a selection process, We will use combinations for each case as follows.

part a)

- Since 2 men cant be selected together. Then we have to discount for one man while selecting Man for the committee. Hence, the combinations are:

                                   8C4 x 7C4 = 2450

part b)

- Since 2 women cant be selected together. Then we have to discount for one woman while selecting them for the committee. Hence, the combinations are:

                                   9C4 x 6C4 = 1890

part b)

- Since 1 women and a man cant be selected together. Then we have to discount for one woman and one man while selecting them for the committee. Hence, the combinations are:

                                   8C4 x 6C4 = 1050

This is hard for me, can someone show me how, Find m∠UTS, if m∠UTV=x+15, m∠VTS=140∘, and m∠UTS=15x+15.
Assoli18 [71]

Answer:

165

Step-by-step explanation:

First, m<UTS=m<UTV+m<VTS by Angle Addition Postulate.  Then, you substitute all the values that you provided for the angles.  15x+15=x+15+140.  You then solve for x.

15x+15=x+155

14x=140

x=10

You then plug back in 10 for X in the value of m<UTS.  15(10)+15=165

A SQUARE PATIO HAS AN AREA OF 200 SQUARE FEET. HOW LONG IS EACH SIDE OF THE PATIO TO THE NEAREST 0.05
lara [203]
If you would like to know the length of each side of the patio, you can calculate this using the following steps:

an area ... 200 square feet
a ... the length of one side

area = a * a = a^2
200 = a^2
a = sqrt(200)
a = 14.14 feet

The correct result would be 14.14 feet.

For an project pedro uses clay to make 4 balls each with a diameter of 4 in. what is the total volume of the 4 balls of clay?
patriot [66]

Volume of a ball = 4/3 x PI x r^3

r = half the diameter.

Volume of 1 ball = 4/3 x PI x 2^3 = 33.5 cubic inches.

Multiply the volume of 1 ball by total balls:

33.5 x 4 = 134 cubic inches.

Please help <br><br>y≥1/3x-3​
zloy xaker [14]

Answer:

B, the one with the line and shaded the top on the right side. (The one that goes to 7 on the x axis).

Step-by-step explanation:

First I find which graph as y -intercept of -3, which is all of them.

Next, I find with graph has a slope of 1/3. (rise 1 run 3). Only B and D has a slope of 1/3 (The ones that has a less steep graph. )

Then, I use the coordinate (0,0) to see which side the graph shades. I plug it into the inequality. (0)≥1/3(0)-3​. Solve. Is 0 greater than -3. YES! so we shade the part where (0,0) is shaded which is B.

Please help Graph y= –3x+4 .
Galina-37 [17]
(4) is the y-intercept in the equation, and is where you plot it on the y-axis. (-3) is your slope. If you were to graph it, here is the link to how it looks like.
