Answer:

224

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that a committee of six Congressmen will be selected from a group of eight Republicans and four Democrats.

Total no of ways of selecting 6 persons from the given list

= taking 6 persons out of 12 persons

= 12C6\\=924

Favourable ways

= ways of selecting 3 republicians

= 3 republicians and 3 democrats

= 8C3(4C3)\\= 4(56)\\\\=224

the number of ways of obtaining a committee with exactly three Republicans.

= 224

Simplify.<br> (WILL GIVE BRAINLIEST)
Novosadov [1.4K]

Answer:

\frac{\sqrt{x} }{2x}

Step-by-step explanation:

Rationalize the denominator first (keep in mind we are NOT solving this because there is no equals sign here.  We are merely simplifying.)

\frac{\sqrt{5x} }{x\sqrt{20} } *\frac{\sqrt{20} }{\sqrt{20} } =\frac{\sqrt{100x} }{20x}

Now simplify by taking the square root of 100 to get:

\frac{10\sqrt{x} }{20x}

Divide numerator and denomiator by 10 to get:

\frac{\sqrt{x} }{2x}
