The bottom answer is correct. I had some trouble with this so I had to find x and y in separate parts.
TO FIND X
notice that the top triangle and bottom triangles are similar, meaning if you multiple all three sides of one by a specific number, it becomes the same size as the bottom triangle.
17 x n = 8, therefore n=8/17
8 x n = X, therefore X=64/17
For some reason, this does not give a correct value for Y, so I had to use trig
TO FIND Y
Notice that the angle DAB is the same as DBC (lets call this angle Ø)
Using trig rule, we know that the cos of an angle is equal to the adjacent side divided by the hypotenuses.
We can now form some equations:
cosØ = 15/17 (from the top triangle)
cosØ = 8/Y (from bottom triangle)
Now we know that Y=(8x17)/15 = 136/15
X=64/15 Y=136/15
Answer:
11/50
Step-by-step explanation:
22% is 22/100
So, divide 22/100 by 2 to get 11/50, which cannot be simplified any further.
Answer:
12870ways
Step-by-step explanation:
Combination has to do with selection
Total members in a tennis club = 15
number of men = 8
number of women = 7
Number of team consisting of women will be expressed as 15C7
15C7 = 15!/(15-7)!7!
15C7 = 15!/8!7!
15C7 = 15*14*13*12*11*10*9*8!/8!7!
15C7 = 15*14*13*12*11*10*9/7 * 6 * 5 * 4 * 3 * 2
15C7 = 15*14*13*12*11/56
15C7 = 6,435 ways
Number of team consisting of men will be expressed as 15C8
15C8 = 15!/8!7!
15C8 = 15*14*13*12*11*10*9*8!/8!7!
15C8 = 15*14*13*12*11*10*9/7 * 6 * 5 * 4 * 3 * 2
15C8 = 6,435 ways
Adding both
Total ways = 6,435 ways + 6,435 ways
Total ways = 12870ways
Hence the required number of ways is 12870ways
