Answer:

336 ways ;

56 ways

Step-by-step explanation:

Number of ways to have the officers :

Number of qualified candidates, n = 8

Number of officer positions to be filled = 3

A.)

Using permutation (since the ordering matters):

nPr = n! ÷(n-r)!

8P3 = 8! ÷ (8-3)!

8P3 = 8! ÷ 5!

8P3 = (8*7*6)

8P3 = 336 ways

B.) Different ways of appointing committee: (ordering doesn't count as officers can also be appointed)

Using the combination relation :

nPr = n! ÷(n-r)!r!

8C3 = 8! ÷ (8-3)! 3!

8C3 = 8! ÷ 5!3!

8C3 = (8*7*6) ÷ (3*2*1)

8C3 = 336 / 6

8C3 = 56 ways

How do you solve this problem? population proportion is to be estimated from a sample of 400 with a sample proportion of 0.1. Ap
Ivan

Answer:

(0.0706, 0.1294)

Step-by-step explanation:

Confidence interval of a proportion is:

CI = p ± CV × SE

where p is the proportion,

CV is the critical value (z score or t score),

and SE is the standard error.

The sample is large enough to estimate as normal.  For 95% confidence level, CV = z = 1.96.

Standard error for a proportion is:

SE = √(pq/n)

SE = √(0.1 × 0.9 / 400)

SE = 0.015

The confidence interval is:

CI = 0.1 ± (1.96)(0.015)

CI = (0.0706, 0.1294)

Round as needed.

△BCD ​ is a right triangle. The length of the hypotenuse is 18 cm. The length of one of the legs is 14 cm.
Maslowich
To solve the leg of a right triangles given the two other side, use the pythagorean theorem. which state that
C^2 = a^2 + b^2
where C is the hypotenuse of the right triangle
a and b are the legs of the right triangle
since the unknown is the other leg
b^2 = C^2 - a^2
b^2 = 18^2 - 14^2
b^2 = 128
b = 11.3 cm
