Answer: 4004ways

Step-by-step explanation:

Total number of Students =15

Total number of students to be on the committee =5

Since two members are of the same major and must not be on the committee, then we are left with choosing 5 people from just 14 People after we eventually remove one from those two students with same majors.

Hence to select 5 people from 14 people, we use the combination formula 14C5.

From the two students with same major we also use the combination Formula in knowing the number of ways any of the two students can be chosen. To choose one from these two students, we use the combination Formula 2C1.

Hence, the total number of ways to choose the committee of 5 and ensuring the two students with same major aren't on the committee becomes:

= 14C5 * 2C1

= 2002 * 2

= 4004ways.

63degrees

Step-by-step explanation:

there are multiple ways to do this

for one, angle a = angle e (corresponding angles)

angle f + angle e = 180 degrees (angles on a straight line)

angle f = 180 degrees - angle e where angle e = angle a = 117degrees

so angle f = 63 degrees.

How would I solve this?

Answer:

It is rotated by 72 degrees.

Step-by-step explanation:

  • Since it is a regular polygon,

        when u connect all the corners of it to the middle of the polygon, they       will meet at a point i.e, CENTER.

  • The sum of the angles subtended by all the sided at the center will be 360 degrees.
  • As there are 60 sides, the angle subtended by each side at the center will be 6 degrees.

Because,

\frac{360}{60} = 6

  • As the polygon rotates every minute and it is rotated for 12 minutes,

12*6 = 72

( For every minute, it will be rotated by 6 degrees.

so, for 12 minutes it should be rotated by 12 times 6 ( 12*6) = 72 degrees)

  • So, after 12 minutes it will be rotated by 72 degrees.

today a boat valued at $45,000.Thebvalue is expected to decrease at a rate of 8.5% each year.What is the value of the boat expec
Stels [109]

Current value of the boat = $45000

Rate at which the value decrease = 8.5%

Value decreased after 1 year = \frac{8.5}{100}\times45000=3825

Hence, value becomes = 45000-3825=41175

Value decreased after 2nd year =

\frac{8.5}{100}\times41175=3499.875

Hence, value becomes = 41175-3499.875=37675.125

Value decreased after 3 year =

\frac{8.5}{100}\times37675.125=3202.385

Hence, value becomes = 37675.125-3202.385=34472.74

So, value of the boat after 3 years becomes $34472.74
