Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
The answer is B, because you will have to multiple 42 by 7 to see how much money he will have in 7 weeks and then you will have to subtract 8 × 8.25 to see how much money he spent on his vacation.
X = short section of rope
4x = longer section of rope
x + 4x = 25
5x = 25
x = 5
…or in other words the shorter piece of rope is 5 feet long
Procedure:
1) calculate the number of diferent teams of four members that can be formed (with the ten persons)
2) calculate the number of teams tha meet the specification (two girls and two boys)
3) Divide the positive events by the total number of events: this is the result of 2) by the result in 1)
Solution
1) the number of teams of four members that can be formed are:
10*9*8*7 / (4*3*2*1) = 210
2) Number of different teams with 2 boys and 2 girls = ways of chosing 2 boys * ways of chosing 2 girls
Ways of chosing 2 boys = 6*5/2 = 15
Ways of chosing 2 girls = 4*3/2 = 6
Number of different teams with 2 boys and 2 girls = 15 * 6 = 90
3) probability of choosing one of the 90 teams formed by 2 boys and 2 girls:
90/210 = 3/7
