Answer:

a) 11,880

b) 7,770

Step-by-step explanation:

The number of teachers that volunteer = 6 teachers

The number of students that volunteer = 12 students

The number of people in the committee = 5 people

a) The exact number of student on the committee = 3 student

Therefore, the number of teachers in the committee of 5 = 5 - 3 = 2

The number of teachers in the committee = 2 teachers

We get;

The number of committees that can be made = ₁₂C₃ × ₆C₂ = 792×15 = 11,880

b) When there is at least one teacher and at least one student on the committee, we have;

₁₂C₄ × ₆C₁ + ₁₂C₃ × ₆C₂ + ₁₂C₂ × ₆C₃ + ₁₂C₁ × ₆C₄ = 7,770

The number of committees having at least one teacher and at least one student = 7,770

Answer:

10 degrees

Step-by-step explanation:

The total area of the triangle will equal 180 degrees.

Firstly add 108 and 48 to get a total of 156.

Now add the 14 from (x+14). You will get 170.

Since the total would be 180 degrees, you subtract 170 from 180.

180-170=10!!!

XZ = 15 and the perimeter of XWZ is 50. What is the length of WZ?
Rom4ik [11]

Answer:

  17.5

Step-by-step explanation:

The perimeter is the sum of the side lengths:

  perimeter = XZ +WZ +WX

The figure shows us WX = WZ, so we can rewrite the formula as ...

  perimeter = XZ +2·WZ

Filling in the given values, this becomes ...

  50 = 15 + 2·WZ

  35 = 2·WZ

  35/2 = WZ = 17.5

The length of WZ is 17.5 units.

Count by ones from 368 to 500. Change for a larger unit when necessary.
stepan [7]
We can figure out how many numbers there are from 368 to 500 by subtracting.

500 - 368 = 132

Now, we need to get it in word form. This can be done by looking at the place value of each number.. So your answer would be:

1 hundred, 3 tens, and 2 ones.
