Answer:

30 ways

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the following :

Number of boys in school (n1) = 5

Number of girls in school (n2) = 3

Total number of team members to be selected = 4

Number of boys required in team(r1) = 2

Number of girls required in team(r2) = 2

How many different teams made up of two girls and two boys could be chosen?

= (2 boys from 5) * (2 girls from 3)

Using combination :

5C2 * 3C2

Recall :

nCr = n! ÷ (n-r)! r!

5C2 = 5! ÷ (5-2)! 2!

5C2 = 5! ÷ 3!2!

5C2 = (5*4) / 2 * 1 = 10ways

3C2 = 3! ÷ (3-2)! 2!

3C2 = 3! ÷ 1!2!

3C2 = (3) /  1 = 3ways

3C2 = 3/1 = 3ways

10 * 3 = 30 ways

Use the given information to find the exact value of the trigonometric function

\begin{gathered} \csc \theta=-\frac{6}{5} \\ \tan \theta>0 \\ \cos \frac{\theta}{2}=\text{?} \end{gathered}

Half Angle Formula

\cos \frac{\theta}{2}=\pm\sqrt[\square]{\frac{1+\cos\theta}{2}}\tan \theta>0\text{ and csc}\theta\text{ is negative in the third quadrant}\begin{gathered} \csc \theta=-\frac{6}{5}=\frac{r}{y} \\ x^2+y^2=r^2 \\ x=\pm\sqrt[\square]{r^2-y^2} \\ x=\pm\sqrt[\square]{6^2-(-5)^2} \\ x=\pm\sqrt[\square]{36-25} \\ x=\pm\sqrt[\square]{11} \\ \text{x is negative since the angle is on the 3rd quadrant} \end{gathered}\begin{gathered} \cos \theta=\frac{x}{r}=\frac{-\sqrt[\square]{11}}{6} \\ \cos \frac{\theta}{2}=\pm\sqrt[\square]{\frac{1+\cos\theta}{2}} \\ \cos \frac{\theta}{2}is\text{ also negative in the 3rd quadrant} \\ \cos \frac{\theta}{2}=-\sqrt[\square]{\frac{1+\frac{-\sqrt[\square]{11}}{6}}{2}} \\ \cos \frac{\theta}{2}=-\sqrt[\square]{\frac{\frac{6-\sqrt[\square]{11}}{6}}{2}} \\ \cos \frac{\theta}{2}=-\sqrt[\square]{\frac{6-\sqrt[\square]{11}}{12}} \\  \\  \end{gathered}

Answer:

\cos \frac{\theta}{2}=-\sqrt[\square]{\frac{6-\sqrt[\square]{11}}{12}}

Checking:

\begin{gathered} \frac{\theta}{2}=\cos ^{-1}(-\sqrt[\square]{\frac{6-\sqrt[\square]{11}}{12}}) \\ \frac{\theta}{2}=118.22^{\circ} \\ \theta=236.44^{\circ}\text{  (3rd quadrant)} \end{gathered}

Also,

\csc \theta=\frac{1}{\sin\theta}=\frac{1}{\sin (236.44)}=-\frac{6}{5}\text{ QED}

The answer is none of the choices
