Ratio of men : women = 3 : 5

-

<u>Find total parts:</u>

3 + 5 = 8

-

<u>Find 1 part:</u>

5 parts = 140

1 part = 140 ÷ 5 = 28

-

<u>Find 8 parts (total):</u>

8 parts = 28 x 8 = 224

-

Answer: There are 224 employees

How many sequences of 0s and 1s of length 19 are there that begin with a 0, end with a 0, contain no two consecutive 0s, and con

65 sequences.

Lets solve the problem,

The last term is 0.

To form the first 18 terms, we must combine the following two sequences:

0-1 and 0-1-1

Any combination of these two sequences will yield a valid case in which no two 0's and no three 1's are adjacent

So we will combine identical 2-term sequences with identical 3-term sequences to yield a total of 18 terms, we get:

2x + 3y = 18

Case 1: x=9 and y=0

Number of ways to arrange 9 identical 2-term sequences = 1

Case 2: x=6 and y=2

Number of ways to arrange 6 identical 2-term sequences and 2 identical 3-term sequences =8!6!2!=28=8!6!2!=28

Case 3: x=3 and y=4

Number of ways to arrange 3 identical 2-term sequences and 4 identical 3-term sequences =7!3!4!=35=7!3!4!=35

Case 4: x=0 and y=6

Number of ways to arrange 6 identical 3-term sequences = 1

Total ways = Case 1 + Case 2 + Case 3 + Case 4 = 1 + 28 + 35 + 1 = 65

Hence the number of sequences are 65.

Answers:

1)  7^2/3 =  ∛7²

5)  √3 = 3^1/2

9)  (∛27)⁴ = 27^4/3 =  3^4 = 81.

poizon [28]

Answer:

w = - 15

Step-by-step explanation:

Assuming you mean

\frac{w+3}{3} = - 4 ( multiply both sides by 3 to clear the fraction )

w + 3 = - 12 ( subtract 3 from both sides )

w = - 15
