Answer:

a) 21684

b) 15504

Step-by-step explanation:

a) Distribute the comic books as follows

only to 1 kid          one way   but we have five kids then  5

to two kids                         C₂₀,₂  =  20! /2! ( 20-2)!    =  20*19 /2  =   190

To three   C₂₀,₃   =  20! /3! ( 20 - 3)!       =  20*19*18 /6               =  1140

To four     C₂₀,₄    =   20 ! / 4! ( 20 - 4 )!   = 20*19*18*17 /4*3*2   =  4845

To five     C₂₀,₅    =    20!  /5! (20 - 5 )!    = 20*19*18*17*16/5*4*3*2*1

C₂₀,₅    =  15504

Then total ways of distribution are:

5 + 190 + 1140 + 4845 + 15504   =  21684

b)   C₂₀,₅  we know from a    that is equal to  15504

Solve for the value of Y using the first equation, 3x-7, and then plug in 3x-7 wherever you see Y, because Y=3x-7. You can find X and then use that value of X and plug it into the equation to solve for Y

According to the data in the figure, find the value of x and y.
drek231 [11]

Answer:

This is a educated guess, but x is 80 and y is 100.

Step-by-step explanation:

My logic here is that the triangles are the same because of all the congruent lines and stuff. But from there, you know that both the right and the left side are 40 degrees. You know the total degree of a triangle is 180 so 180 - 40 - 40 is 100. So the final angle is 100. If you look at x, its on the outside, but on a line. If you can imagine a circle, its half, so its a 180 degrees total. Then its 180 = x + 100. So x is 80. And then by that same logic its y = 100.

Work out the area of this trapezium
skelet666 [1.2K]

Step-by-step explanation:

Area = ½ × b × h

= ½ × (7.9 + 10.8) × 6.2

= ½ × 18.7 × 6.2

= ½ × 115.94

= <u>5</u><u>7</u><u>.</u><u>9</u><u>7</u><u> </u><u>cm²</u>

So, the area of that trapezium is 57.97 cm²

(Note: a research study on coniferous trees of the American West
eimsori [14]

Answer:

p = 0.07

p-hat = 0.035

p0 = 0.07

p-value = 0.003

Step-by-step explanation:

p = population parameter, in this case, the rate of infestations across all trees in the forest

p-hat = test statistic, in this case, the rate of infestations found in the sample of trees, i.e. those in Doug's backyard

p0 = the null hypothesis, in this case, the rate of infestations within the forest is correctly evaluated at 0.07 or 7%

p-value = the likelihood any difference between p and p-hat is down to chance

In this case 0.003 as the p-value means there is only 0.3% probability of our statistic value of 0.035 being down to variability and chance meaning it is 99.7% likely that there is some reason behind this difference;

We would accept the alternative hypothesis which says the current parameter value, 0.07, is in fact incorrect (either too high or too low, in this case, likely too high).
