Answer:

126

Step-by-step explanation:

There are 9 city council members.

We have to choose 4 of them.

We have to use the combination as :

$^9C_4$

where, 9 is the population size

4 is the sample size.

Therefore, the total number of possible samples without replacement is given as :

$^9C_4=\frac{9!}{4!(9-4)!}$

      $=\frac{9!}{5! \ 4!}$

     $=\frac{9 \times 8 \times 7 \times 6}{4 \times 3 \times 2 \times 1}$

    = 126

ira [324]
To find the amount that Franklin financed, you will calculate the amount he put down and subtract that from the original price because that is what he still owes.

0.2 x $4500 = $900
$4500 - $900 = $3600.

Porter financed $3600.

You also multiply 0.8 x $4500 because this represents the part out of 100% he still owes.  You will get the same answer this way.

A number of two digits is increased by 54 when the digits are reversed. The ten digits is three times the unit digit. Find the n
bija089 [108]

Let <em>n</em> be the unknown number. We can write it as

<em>n</em> = 10<em>a</em> + <em>b</em>

with <em>a</em> and <em>b</em> integers between 1 and 9 (either with positive or negative sign).

Reversing the digits gives another number

<em>m</em> = 10<em>b</em> + <em>a</em>

The first number is increased by 54 when the digits are reversed, which means

<em>m</em> = <em>n</em> + 54   →   10<em>b</em> + <em>a</em> = 10<em>a</em> + <em>b</em> + 54   →   9<em>b</em> - 9<em>a</em> = 54   →   <em>b</em> - <em>a</em> = 6

The digit in the tens place of <em>n</em> is 3 times the digit in the ones place, so

<em>a</em> = 3<em>b</em>

Substitute this into the previous equation and solve for <em>b</em> :

<em>b</em> - <em>a</em> = <em>b</em> - 3<em>b</em> = -2<em>b</em> = 6   →   <em>b</em> = -3

Solve for <em>a</em> :

<em>a</em> = 3<em>b</em> = 3(-3) = -9

Then the original number is <em>n</em> = 10<em>a</em> + <em>b</em> = 10(-9) + (-3) = -93
