Answer:

one quarter of the total number of students will be those who failed their exam.

Step-by-step explanation:

Three - fourths = those who passed the exam

one quarter will be those who failed their exam

From the total number of the students.

Let's make an example

40 students who take the exam.

3 over 4 students from the total number of 40 take the exam and the result is passed and it mean 30 students passed in the exam.

1 over 4 students take the exam and the result is failed and it mean 10 students failed in the exam.

4 minus 3 over 4 will get the answer 1 over 4.

Use 1 over 4 to multiple with the total number of the students and that how you will get the answer for those who failed in their exam.

Find the volume of a right prism with height h=10 cm, if :

kozerog [31]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

So, to begin the altitude of a triangle is the line segment that starts at the top vertex and ends at the base of the triangle forming a right angle. If we want to find the volume of the of the prism the formula is Ab*h. This is the area of the base, times the height of the prism. This is true because a simple expination of volume is a box filled with stuff. To count how much stuff we have in the box the formula uses layers. Volume is just like a lot of 2 dimential areas stacked on top of each other. So taking the area of the flat base and puting it on top of it self 10 time will give you the same prism thats in the problem. Now we just have to apply the consept. Since the base is a triangle and we need to find the area. The formula is b*h*1/2. Base time height times 1/2. The reason for this is also simlar to area. A triangle is half of a square, so to find the area of a square the formula is L*W. Since a triangle is half of a square you just multipuly it by 1/2. When solved you will get 4*3.5*1/2=7, the area of the base is 7 cm^2. Now appling the topic above we stack the base 10 times, so 7*10=70. In conculstion the volume of the prism would be 70 cm^2.

F(2) = 3(2)-1
= 5

There are 8 members on a board of directors. if they must form a subcommittee of 6 members, how many different subcommittees are

Shtirlitz [24]

1. Given a group of n people. There are C(n, r) ways of forming groups of r out of n.

2. Where C(n, r)= $\frac{n!}{r!(n-r)!}$

3. For example, given {Andy, John, Julia}. We want to pick 2 people to give a gift: we can pick {(Andy, John), (Andy, Julia), (John, Julia)}, so there are 3 ways. So we can list and count.

4. Or we could do this with the formula C(3, 2)= $\frac{3!}{2!(1)!}= \frac{3*2*1}{2*1}=3$

5. C(8, 6)= $\frac{8!}{2!6!}= \frac{8*7*6!}{2*6!}= \frac{8*7}{2}= 4*7=28$

So there are C(8,6)=28 ways of chosing 6 out of 8 people to form the subcommittees. <span />
