Answer:

12.496

Step-by-step explanation:

$\text{Sum}=\frac{a*(1-r^n)}{1-r}\\\text{Here a=10, r=1/5, plugging them in the above formula we get}\\\text{Sum}=\frac{10*(1-(1/5)^5)}{1-(1/5)}\\\text{Sum}=\frac{1562}{125}=12.496$

An experiment consists of choosing objects without regards to order. Determine the size of the sample space when you choose the

sdas [7]

Answer:

$n= 75, 582$

$n= 2300$

$n = 253$

Step-by-step explanation:

Generally the size of the sample sample space is mathematically represented as

$n = \left N } \atop {}} \right. C_r$

Where N is the total number of objects available and r is the number of objects to be selected

So for a, where N = 19 and r = 8

$n = \left 19 } \atop {}} \right. C_8 = \frac{19 !}{(19 - 8 )! 8!}$

$= \frac{19 *18 *17 *16 *15 *14 *13 *12 *11! }{11 ! \ 8!}$

$n= 75, 582$

For b Where N = 25 and r = 3

$n = \left 25 } \atop {}} \right. C_3 = \frac{25 !}{(19 - 3 )! 3!}$

$= \frac{25 *24 *23 *22 ! }{22 ! \ 3!}$

$n= 2300$

For c Where N = 23 and r = 2

$n = \left 23 } \atop {}} \right. C_2 = \frac{23 !}{(23 - 2 )! 2!}$

$= \frac{23 *22 *21! }{21 ! \ 3!}$

$n = 253$
