Answer:

3003

Step-by-step explanation:

Teams of 5 from the total of 15 students.

<u>Combination of 5 is:</u>

nCr = n!/(n-r)!*r!
15C5 = 15!/10!5! = 15*14*13*12*11/(2*3*4*5) = 3003 teams

Answer: x = 6

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that the angles combined are complementary, meaning they add up to 90 degrees.

Therefore, we can make this equation:

(x + 54) + 5x = 90

Then, combine like terms.

x + 54 + 5x = 90

6x + 54 = 90

Now, subtract the 54 from that side.

6x = 90 - 54

6x = 36

Next, divide!

$\frac{6x}{6}$ = $\frac{36}{6}$

x = 6

Step-by-step explanation:

$sin \: 45 \degree = \frac{39}{z} \\ \\ \therefore \: \frac{1}{ \sqrt{2} } = \frac{39}{z} \\ \\ \therefore \: z = 39 \sqrt{2} \\ let \: p \: be \: the \: perpendicular \: \\ \\\therefore \: tan \: 45 \degree = \frac{39}{p} \\ \\ \therefore \:1 = \frac{39}{p} \\ \\ \therefore \:p = 39 \\ \\ sin \: 60 \degree = \frac{39}{x} \\ \\ \therefore \: \frac{ \sqrt{3} }{2} = \frac{39}{x} \\ \\ \therefore \: x = \frac{78}{ \sqrt{3} } \\ \\ \therefore \: x = \frac{78 \sqrt{3} }{ 3 } \\ \\ \therefore \: x = 26 \sqrt{3} \\\\tan\: 60 \degree = \frac{39}{y} \\ \\ \therefore \: \sqrt{3} = \frac{39}{y} \\ \\ \therefore \: y = \frac{39}{ \sqrt{3} } \\ \\ \therefore \: y= \frac{39 \sqrt{3} }{ 3 } \\ \\ \therefore \: y = 13 \sqrt{3} \\$
