The coach can select the captain in 20 ways (i.e. from all the available 20 players), and he can select the co-captain in 19 ways (i.e. after selecting the captain, there will be 19 people left).
Therefore, the coach can select the captain and the co-captain in 20 x 19 = 380 ways.

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Number of peoples available to choose from = 20

$\text{Ways of selecting the captain from 20 people = }_{1}^{20}\textrm {C}=20$

After selecting the captain number of people left among which co captain can be selected = 20 - 1 = 19

$\text{Ways of selecting the co captain from 19 people = }_{1}^{19}\textrm {C}=19$

Hence, Number of ways a coach select the captain and co-captain of a team from a group of 20 people = 20 × 19 = 380

Therefore, The correct option is C. 380

2. Total number of players = 7

Number of players to be selected = 5

$\text{So, number of ways of selecting 5 players out of 7 = }_{5}^{7}\textrm {C}=21$

Therefore, The correct option is A. 21

3. Total number of outcomes = 20

The digits 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6 represent the student who make a C

Number of students who make a C at least 3 times = 13

$\bf\textbf{Required Probability = }\frac{13}{20}$

Therefore, The correct option is D

Answer:

$\frac{1}{20}$

Step-by-step explanation:

First, we need to look at the # of chips. There are a total of 25, 6 of which are blue.

This means that the chance of getting the first blue chip would be $\frac{6}{25}$

As there is no replacement, the total number of chips is 24 and there are only 5 blue left. This gives us the chance of $\frac{5}{24}$

Now all we need to do is mulitply these two and then simplify

$\frac{6}{25} *\frac{5}{24} =\frac{30}{600} =\frac{1}{20}$

Can someone help me with my math? it is about 45 questions and wont take too long :(

The slope is the change in Y over the change in X.

Use the two blue dots on the graph :

(-1,0) ans (3,4)

Slope = (4 - 0) / (3 - -1)

= 4 / 4

= 1

Solve the following system of equations <br> x^2+2y^2=59<br> 2x^2+y^2=43

aivan3 [116]

Answer: x = (-3,3), y = (-5,5)

Step-by-step explanation:

Add both of the equations together, for $3x^{2}+3y^{2} = 102$ . Now we can divide both sides by 3, getting $x^2+y^2=34$ . we subtract the first equation from our equation we just got, getting $y^2=25$ y= (5,-5). once we plug that in, we get $50+x^2 = 59$ , $x^2 = 9$ x = (-3,3)
