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

I need helping solving -3z+7=-7-10z
Tpy6a [65]
-3z + 7 = -7 - 10z

Add 10z to both sides

7z + 7 = -7

Subtract 7 from both sides

7z = -14

Divide by 7

Z = -2

HELP ME!! SOMEBODY PLEASE HELP ME
IRISSAK [1]
6^2 = x (x - 9)
x^2 - 9x - 36 = 0
(x -12)(x + 3) = 0
x - 12 = 0; x = 12
x +3 = 0; x = -3

so in this case x = 12 then DC = 12 - 9 = 3

y^2 = 12^2 - 6^2
y^2 = 144 - 36
y^2 = 108
y = 10.4

\$27.60 = 100 \%
\$1 = 100 \div 27.60 \%
\$1 =  \frac{250}{69} \%

------------------------------------------------------
Find $4.14 in percentage
------------------------------------------------------
\$1 = \frac{250}{69} \%
\$4.14 =  \frac{250}{69}  \times 4.14
\$4.14 = 15%

------------------------------------------------------
Answer: 15%
------------------------------------------------------
