frosja888 [35]

Answer:

864 squared meters

Step-by-step explanation:

Set up a proportion.  The scale between 270 and 360 should be the same as 648 to the fourth yard.

\frac{270}{360} = \frac{648}{x}\\270x = (360)(648)\\270x = 233280\\x = 864 m^2

) An instructor gives his class a set of 18 problems with the information that the next quiz will consist of a random selection
RSB [31]

Answer:

The probability the he or she will answer correctly is 1.5%

Step-by-step explanation:

In all, there are 18 problems. In this question, the order of which the problems are sorted for the quiz makes no difference. For example, if the question A of the quiz is P1 and question B P2, and question A P2 and question B P1, it is the same thing.

There are 18 problems and 9 are going to be selected. So, there is going to be a combination of 9 elements from a set of 18 elements.

A combination of n elements from a set of m objects has the following formula:

C_{(m,n)} = \frac{m!}{n!(m-n)!}

In this question, m = 18, n = 9. So the total number of possibilities is:

T_{p} = C_{(18,9)} = \frac{18!}{9!(18-9)!} = 48620

Now we have to calculate the number of desired outcomes. This number is a combination of 9 elements from a set of 13 elements(13 is the number of problems that the student has figured out how to do).

Now, m = 13, n = 9. The number of desired possibilities is:

D_{p} = C_{(13,9)} = \frac{13!}{9!(13-9)!} = 715

The probability is the number of desired possibilities divided by the number of total possibilities. So

P = \frac{715}{48620} = 0.015 = 1.5%

The probability the he or she will answer correctly is 1.5%
