Answer:

We need group of 4 out of group of 5 + 6 = 11 people.

Part A

i)

<u>2 boys and 2 girls:</u>

  • 5C2 * 6C2 = (5*4/2) * (6*5/2) = 150 ways

ii)

<u>4 boys or 4 girls:</u>

  • 5C4 + 6C4 = 5 + 15 = 20 ways

iii)

<u>No restrictions:</u>

  • 11C4 = (11*10*9*8)/(4*3*2) = 330 ways

Part B

<u>Combination of 3 boys and 1 girl:</u>

  • 5C3*6C1 = (5*4/2)*6 = 60

Total number of ways is 330 (found above)

<u>Required probability:</u>

  • P(3 boys and 1 girl) = 60/330 ≈ 0.1818 = 18.18%

Answer:

Because you are recounting people several times. Say for example, let us number those people

{1,2,3,4} for the four girls and {1,2…7} for the boys.

One possible combination by your way is to fix one boy and girl each, say

{1,1} and then choose the remaining people. Let this combination be, for the sake of the example, {1,1,2,2,3}. This is a valid combination.

Now, when you fix another combination of a boy and a girl, say {1,2}, you could get the same combination as before because one the combinations while choosing the three remaining people would be {1,2,3}.

A correct way would be to choose  girls and then choose 5− boys for 1≤≤4

So we get ∑4=1(4)(75−)=441

Find the distance between the points (-4, -5 and (3, -1.
Komok [63]
<u><em>≡ We know that:</em></u>
⇔ (x_{1},y_{1}) → (-4,-5)
⇔ (x_{2},y_{2}) → (3,-1)

<u><em>≡ Solution:</em></u>
⇒ \sqrt{[(x_{2}-x_{1})^{2}+(y_{2}-y_{1})^{2}]}
⇒ \sqrt{[(3-(-4))^{2}+(-1-(-5))^{2}]}
⇒ \sqrt{[7^{2}+4^{2}]}
⇒ \sqrt{[49+16]}
⇒ \boxed{\sqrt{65}}

Are is the Triangle SWT and triangle SVU similar? What would be the answer?
kondaur [170]

Answer:

A) Yes the 2 triangles are similar by SSS Similarity and SAS Similarity

Step-by-step explanation:

SSS:

ST/SU = SW/SV = WT/VU

60/70 = 48/56 = 30/35

6/7 = 6/7 = 6/7

SAS:

ST/SU = SW/SV = 6/7 (look at SSS proving)

Angle S = Angle S because they are reflexive or the same angles
