We're trying to find $s(t(-7))$ .

$t(-7)=3(-7)$

$t(-7)=-21$

$s(-21)=2-(-21)^2$

$s(-21)=2-441$

$s(-21)=-439$

Hope this helps.

頑張って!

A company must select 4 candidates to interview from a list of 12, which consist of 8 men and 4 women.

Radda [10]

Part A

If 4 candidates were to be selected regardless of gender, that means that 4 candidates is to be selected from 12.

The number of possible selections of 4 candidates from 12 is given by

$^{12}C_4= \frac{12!}{4!(12-4)!}= \frac{12!}{4!\times8!} =11\times5\times9=495$

Therefore, the number of <span>selections of 4 candidates regardless of gender is 495.

Part B:

</span>
<span>If 4 candidates were to be selected such that 2 women must be selected, that means that 2 men candidates is to be selected from 8 and 2 women candidates is to be selected from 4.

The number of possible selections of </span><span>2 men candidates from 8 and 2 women candidates from 4 is given by

</span><span> $^{8}C_2\times ^{4}C_2= \frac{8!}{2!(8-2)!}\times 
\frac{4!}{2!(4-2)!} \\ \\ = 
\frac{8!}{2!\times6!}\times\frac{4!}{2!\times2!} 
=4\times7\times2\times3=168$

Therefore, the number of selections of 4 candidates </span><span>such that 2 women must be selected is 168.</span>

Part 3:

If 4 candidates were to be selected such that at least 2 women must be selected, that means that 2 men candidates is to be selected from 8 and 2 women candidates is to be selected from 4 or 1 man candidates is to be selected from 8 and 3 women candidates is to be selected from 4 of <span>no man candidates is to be selected from 8 and 4 women candidates is to be selected from 4.

The number of possible selections of </span>2 men candidates from 8 and 2 women candidates from 4 of <span>1 man candidates from 8 and 3 women candidates from 4 of no man candidates from 8 and 4 women candidates from 4 is given by
</span><span>
$^{8}C_2\times ^{4}C_2+ ^{8}C_1\times ^{4}C_3+ ^{8}C_0\times ^{4}C_4 \\ \\ = \frac{8!}{2!(8-2)!}\times \frac{4!}{2!(4-2)!}+\frac{8!}{1!(8-1)!}\times \frac{4!}{3!(4-3)!}+\frac{8!}{0!(8-0)!}\times \frac{4!}{4!(4-4)!} \\ \\ = \frac{8!}{2!\times6!}\times\frac{4!}{2!\times2!}+\frac{8!}{1!\times7!}\times\frac{4!}{3!\times1!}+\frac{8!}{0!\times8!}\times\frac{4!}{4!\times0!} \\ \\ =4\times7\times2\times3+8\times4+1\times1=168+32+1=201$

Therefore, the number of selections of 4 candidates </span><span>such that at least 2 women must be selected is 201.</span>

Please help me! this got deleted at first for some reason

Dmitrij [34]

Answer: 55 Square inches

Step-by-step explanation:

You should find the area of the square and rectangle separately

To find the area you multiply length times width, so the area of the square is 4×4 which equals 16

Then you do the same to the rectangle, 13×3=39

To find the area of the whole figure you add the area of the two shapes together 16+39 which should give you 55
