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

Marianna [84]

Answer:

B

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

7x - 9 > 2x + 6 ( subtract 2x from both sides )

5x - 9 > 6 ( add 9 to both sides )

5x > 15 ( divide both sides by 3 )

x > 3 → B
