Out of 10 students, 2 will be chosen to ride in a car instead of a van on an upcoming field trip. Which statement best describes

this situation?
A. There are 10P2 = 90 ways the students can be chosen to ride in the car because the order in which the students are chosen matters.

B. There are 10C2 = 45 ways the students can be chosen to ride in the car because the order in which the students are chosen matters.

C. There are 10P2 = 90 ways the students can be chosen to ride in the car because the order in which the students are chosen doesn’t matter.

D. There are 10C2 = 45 ways the students can be chosen to ride in the car because the order in which the students are chosen doesn’t matter.

Answer:

D

Step-by-step explanation:

Firstly, since it is a selection question, we shall be using a combination approach.

So here we are trying to select the best answer that describes that 2 out of 10 students are selected.

Let’s consider the scenario below;

selecting r out of n can be resolved using the combination nCr

= n!/(n-r)!r!

Now in this case, our n = 10 and r = 2.

Thus, 10C2, we have ;

10!/(10-2)!2! = 10!/8!2! = (10 * 9 * 8!)/8!2! = (10 *9)/2! = 90/2 = 45

Thus, 10C2 = 45

Here, the order of selection does not matter as we can select in random fashion. This makes option D correct

Answer:

A)   Θ = 2A/r²

Step-by-step explanation:

A = Θr²/2

(Multiple both sides by 2)

2A = Θr²

(Divide both sides by r²)

2A/r² = Θ

A person creates a game in which a person pays $5.00 to play. Then, they draw a single card from a standard shuffled deck of car
valkas [14]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The expected value is the probability of an event multiplied by the number of times the event happens. And if there is more than 1 event, the expected value is the sum of those.

There are 52 cards in a deck.

There are 12 face cards in a deck. (gain 10)

There are 4 ace in a deck. (gain 20)

Any other card is 36 of them. (lose 5)

The probability of face card is 12/52

The probability of ace is 4/52

The probability of any other card is 36/52

Thus the expected values is:

(12/52)(10) + (4/52)(20) + (36/52)(-5) = $0.38

X² + y² = 8
ohaa [14]

Answer:

(2,2)~ \text{and}~ (-2,-2)

Step by step explanation:

x^2 +y^2 =8~~~~~~...(i)\\\\x-y=0~~~~~~~~~...(ii)\\\\\text{From (ii):}\\\\x-y = 0 \implies x = y\\\\\text{Substitute x = y  in eq (i):}\\\\~~~~~~y^2 +y^2 =8\\\\\implies 2y^2 = 8\\ \\\implies y^2 = \dfrac 82\\\\\implies y^2 = 4\\\\\implies y = \pm\sqrt 4\\\\\implies y = \pm 2\\\\\text{Substitute y = x  in equation (i):}\\ \\~~~~~~x^2 +x^2 = 8\\ \\\implies 2x^2 = 8\\\\\implies x^2 = \dfrac 82\\\\\implies x^2 = 4\\\\\implies x = \pm\sqrt 4\\\\\implies x = \pm2\\\\

\text{Hence,}~ (x,y) = (\pm2, \pm 2)
