Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The total number of permutations of boys and girls on the team are:

¹⁶P₅*¹³P₄

1.

Bob will be one of the fixed boys to be picked. Hence, actually 4 boys are to be picked from 15. The permutations of girls being picked remains the same.

Probability = Permutations with Bob as one of the boys / Total permutations

Probability = (¹⁵P₄*¹³P₄) / (¹⁶P₅*¹³P₄) = ¹⁵P₄ / ¹⁶P₅

Probability = \frac{15!}{(15-4)!}/\frac{16!}{(16-5)!} = 15! / 16! = 1/16

2.

Now, Bob is one of the fixed boys and Jane is one of the fixed girls. Hence, actually 4 boys are to be picked from 15 and 3 girls are to be picked from 12.

Probability = Permutations with bob as one of the boys and jane as one of the girls / Total permutations

Probability = (¹⁵P₄*¹²P₃) / (¹⁶P₅*¹³P₄) = (1/16)*(1/13) = 1/208

3.

Now, the probability that at least Jane or Bob will be picked has been asked. This probability is a combination of three probabilities:

Probability = (Probability that only Bob will be picked) + (Probability that only Jane will be picked) + (Probability that both will be picked)

Probability = 1/16 + 1/13 + 1/208 = 0.123

4.

Total teams possible = ¹⁶P₅*¹³P₄ = 8994585600 teams are possible

Amelia makes necklaces using beads and wire. She starts with 6 feet of wire. How many necklaces can she make?
navik [9.2K]

If  Amelia  starts with 6 feet of wire, the amount of necklaces that she can make is 18.

<h3>What is the necklaces  about?</h3>

Jewelry wire is known to be a kind of a wire that can be either a copper, brass, or others that are often used in jewelry making.

Note that  Wire is seen today as a single unit, and it is also seen to be cylindrical, elongated part of drawn metal.

Using the table:

6  ÷ 1/3

= 6 x 3

= 18

Therefore, If  Amelia  starts with 6 feet of wire, the amount of necklaces that she can make is 18.

Therefore, option A is correct.

Tommy has a screw whose length is 4 cm and its thread length is 16 cm. What is the mechanical advantage of the screw?
Rus_ich [418]

Answer:

a screw is a simple machine that works as a modified inclined plane. You can think of the thread of the screw as an inclined plane wrapped around the shaft of the screw. The slope of the screw is the distance for one complete rotation while the height of the inclined plane is the distance between the threads, known as pitch. The relationship between the pitch and circumference of the screw gives the mechanical advantage.
