Answer:

1716 ;

700 ;

1715 ;

658 ;

1254 ;

792

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that :

Number of members (n) = 13

a. How many ways can a group of seven be chosen to work on a project?

13C7:

Recall :

nCr = n! ÷ (n-r)! r!

13C7 = 13! ÷ (13 - 7)!7!

= 13! ÷ 6! 7!

(13*12*11*10*9*8*7!) ÷ 7! (6*5*4*3*2*1)

1235520 / 720

= 1716

b. Suppose seven team members are women and six are men.

Men = 6 ; women = 7

(i) How many groups of seven can be chosen that contain four women and three men?

(7C4) * (6C3)

Using calculator :

7C4 = 35

6C3 = 20

(35 * 20) = 700

(ii) How many groups of seven can be chosen that contain at least one man?

13C7 - 7C7

7C7 = only women

13C7 = 1716

7C7 = 1

1716 - 1 = 1715

(iii) How many groups of seven can be chosen that contain at most three women?

(6C4 * 7C3) + (6C5 * 7C2) + (6C6 * 7C1)

Using calculator :

(15 * 35) + (6 * 21) + (1 * 7)

525 + 126 + 7

= 658

c. Suppose two team members refuse to work together on projects. How many groups of seven can be chosen to work on a project?

(First in second out) + (second in first out) + (both out)

13 - 2 = 11

11C6 + 11C6 + 11C7

Using calculator :

462 + 462 + 330

= 1254

d. Suppose two team members insist on either working together or not at all on projects. How many groups of seven can be chosen to work on a project?

Number of ways with both in the group = 11C5

Number of ways with both out of the group = 11C7

11C5 + 11C7

462 + 330

= 792

Select Parameter or Statistic to classify each statement.
Annette [7]

Answer:

1) Statistic

2) Parameter

3) Statistic

4) Parameter.

Step-by-step explanation:

Parameter: is a number that describes the whole population.

Statistic: is a number that describes a sample.

The difference is:

50% of the cats are nice (parameter, because talks about all the cats)

out of 100 cats surveyed, 39 are nice (statistic, because talks about a sample of 100 cats)

Then:

1) 85% of those surveyed were in favor of bike lanes.

This only refers to the surveyed people, so this only refers to a sample (and not the population that this sample represents) then this is a statistic statement.

2) Each member of the soccer team has an average of 2 jerseys.

In this case, we are talking about the whole population (the soccer team) then this is a parameter

3) Of the 100 swim teams surveyed across America, 23 practice 10 hours a week.

Here the information is about the sample (only 100 swim teams). So here the correct option is statistic.

4) The golf team's average score is 79

Here the information is about the average score for the entire golf team, so this information is about all the population in the golf team, then in this case the correct option is parameter.

Takes a word processor 20 minutes to spell check 6 pages, how long to check 27 pages
ivann1987 [24]

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  90 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

Assuming the time is proportional to the number of pages, you have ...

  time/pages = 20/6 = T/27

Multiplying by 27 gives ...

  T = 27(20/6) = 90

It is expected to take 90 minutes to check 27 pages.

Let f ( ) sin(arctan ) x x = . What is the range of f ?
nikklg [1K]
<span>So you have composed two functions,
</span><span>h(x)=sin(x) and g(x)=arctan(x)</span>
<span>→f=h∘g</span><span>
meaning
</span><span>f(x)=h(g(x))</span>
<span>g:R→<span>[<span>−1;1</span>]</span></span>
<span>h:R→[−<span>π2</span>;<span>π2</span>]</span><span>
And since
</span><span>[−1;1]∈R→f is defined ∀x∈R</span><span>

And since arctan(x) is strictly increasing and continuous in [-1;1] ,
</span><span>h(g(]−∞;∞[))=h([−1;1])=[arctan(−1);arctan(1)]</span><span>
Meaning
</span><span>f:R→[arctan(−1);arctan(1)]=[−<span>π4</span>;<span>π4</span>]</span><span>
so there's your domain</span>
