Answer:

a) 5765760

b) 60480

c) 5705280

Step-by-step explanation:

Assuming that order is not important:

Number of women = 7

Number of men = 9

Members of the delegation = 6

a) How many delegations are possible?

$n=\frac{16!}{(16-6)!}=16*15*14*13*12*11\\ n= 5765760$

b) How many of these delegations have all men?

$n_{men} = \frac{9!}{(9-6)!}=9*8*7*6*5*4 \\n_{men} = 60480$

c) How many of these delegations have at least one woman?

$n_{women >0}=n-n_{men}\\n_{women >0} =5765760-60480\\n_{women >0} =5705280$

Question : 3/4+ 0.6 = ? 1.15 1.35 1.45 or 1.05

Artyom0805 [142]

we have

$\frac{3}{4} +0.6$

we know that

$\frac{3}{4}=0.75$

and

$0.75=0.40+0.35$

substitute in the expression

$0.40+0.35 +0.6$

$(0.40+0.60)+0.35$

$(1.00)+0.35=1.35$

therefore

the answer is

$1.35$

Given:

diamong [38]

Answer:

10-5 $\sqrt{2}$

Step-by-step explanation:

As per the attached figure, right angled $\triangle MDL$ has an inscribed circle whose center is $I$ .

We have joined the incenter $I$ to the vertices of the $\triangle MDL$ .

Sides MD and DL are equal because we are given that $\angle M = \angle L = 45 ^\circ.$

Formula for area of a $\triangle = \dfrac{1}{2} \times base \times height$

As per the figure attached, we are given that side a = 10.

Using pythagoras theorem, we can easily calculate that side ML = 10 $\sqrt{2}$

Points P,Q and R are at $90 ^\circ$ on the sides ML, MD and DL respectively so IQ, IR and IP are heights of $\triangle$ MIL, $\triangle$ MID and $\triangle$ DIL.

Also,

$\text {Area of } \triangle MDL = \text {Area of } \triangle MIL +\text {Area of } \triangle MID+ \text {Area of } \triangle DIL$

$\dfrac{1}{2} \times 10 \times 10 = \dfrac{1}{2} \times r \times 10 + \dfrac{1}{2} \times r \times 10 + \dfrac{1}{2} \times r \times 10\sqrt2\\\Rightarrow r = \dfrac {10}{2+\sqrt2} \\\Rightarrow r = \dfrac{5\sqrt2}{\sqrt2+1}\\\text{Multiplying and divinding by }(\sqrt2 +1)\\\Rightarrow r = 10-5\sqrt2$

So, radius of circle = $10-5\sqrt2$
