Conditional statement is a statement with a hypotesis and a conclusion:
or mathematically
.
Converse statement of
is statement
.
If you negate (that means stick a "not" in front of) both the hypothesis and conclusion, you get the inverse:
.
Finally, if you negate everything and flip p and q (taking the inverse of the converse) then you get the contrapositive:
.
Example:
1. Conditional statement: If I am sleeping, then I have closed eyes. (true)
2. Converse statement: If I have closed eyes, then I'm sleeping. (not necessarily true)
3. Inverse statement: If I'm not sleeping, then I haven't closed eyes. (not necessarily true)
4. Contrapositive statement: If I haven't closed eyes, then I'm not sleeping. (true)
In this item, we are informed that the order of the entries does not matter in determination the number of ways in which the Archie can choose for his party. Because the arrangement or order is not important, this type of problem uses the concept of COMBINATION.
The equation for combination is,
nCr = n!/((n - r)!(r!))
nCr is read as "combination of n taken r".
Substituting the known values to the equation,
15C6 = 15! / ((15 - 6)!(6!))
= 5005
Hence, there are 5005 ways in which Archee can choose the 6 entrees for his party.
Answer:
14 minutes below or 6 minutes above
Step-by-step explanation:
Let's say Sophia's time was 10 minutes WORSE
4 minutes below average- 10 minutes= 14 minutes below average
Let's say Sophia's time was ten minutes BETTER
4 minutes below average + 10 minutes= 6 minutes above average.
Hope this helps!
