10 juniors are running for 4 positions. 
There are ten people who can get into the first spot
Nine people for the second
8 people for the third
7 for the fourth
10x9x8x7= 5040 different ways. 

For the sophomores: 12x11x10x9x8= 95040
However, the positions are identical which means that the order doesn't matter. (There's a difference between A getting postion 1, B for 2, C for 3, D for 4 and B for 1, A for 2, C for 3, D for 4)

There are 5 identical positions, therefore we divide this by 5! (5x4x3x2x1)= 120
95040/120= 792
Juniors have 5040 positions, sophomores have 792

Natalka [10]

\large{\mathcal{ANSWER:}}

b) It is a cubic function of 4 terms.

  • In this case p(3) = t + 2 is synonymous for p = 3 + 2. Remember p is synonymous for y. So in this equation it is p = 5.

What is the probability that 6 rolls of a fair die will show four exactly 5 times?
storchak [24]

Answer:

very less

Step-by-step explanation:

When rolling a fair 6 sided die 5 times there are 6^5 possible combinations.

Of those, there are 5 ways to roll exactly four sixes, and each of those ways have 5 possible results on the die which has not rolled a six, plus there is 1 way to roll five sixes. 5*5+1=26 combinations with at least four sixes.

Now, take the number of results which fit your conditions, divide by the number of possible results and you get your answer: 26/7776 which can be reduced to 13/3338, a bit less than 0.4%
