Answer:

Depends on the bathroom

Step-by-step explanation:

Basically since I don't know the bathroom length and width, Ima just cut it down for you.

It is your bathroom area (length*width) divided by the area of the tiles, which is 1*1=1 foot^2(square)

Also it depends on the unit you used for the bathroom, you gotta transfer the unit for the bathroom length and width into feet.

So you should get number for bathroom area with the unit feet square.

9. A band director wants to form a committee of 4 parents from a list of 45 band parents.

Alex73 [517]

Answer:

Part (A): The number of ways to select 12 jurors are 86493225.

Part (B): The number of ways to select 2 alternates are 306.

Part (C): Part (a) is an example of combination and Part (a) is an example of permutation

Step-by-step explanation:

Consider the provided information.

A band director wants to form a committee of 4 parents from a list of 45 band parents.

Part (A): How many different groups of 4 parents can the band director select?

Since order doesn't matter so we will use combination.

Use the formula for combination $^{n}C_{r}=\frac{n!}{r!(n-r)!}$

Substitute n=45 and r=4 in above formula.

$^{45}C_{4}=\frac{45!}{4!(45-4)!}$

$^{45}C_{4}=\frac{45!}{4!41!}$

$^{45}C_{4}=148995$

Hence, the number of ways are 148995.

Part (B) How many different ways can the band director select 4 parents to serve in the band parents’ association as president, vice president, treasurer, and secretary?

Since the order matter so we will use permutation:

The formula for permutation is: $^{n}P_{r}=\frac{n!}{(n-r)!}$

Substitute n=45 and r=4 in above formula.

$^{45}P_{4}=\frac{45!}{(45-4)!}$

$^{45}P_{4}=\frac{45!}{41!}$

$^{45}P_{4}=3575880$

Hence, the number of ways are 3575880.

Part (C) . Explain the difference between parts (a) and (b) in terms of how you decided to solve each part.

Part (A) is an example of number of combination where order doesn't matter.

Part (B) is an example of permutation where order matter.

Which expression represents the calculation “subtract 4 from 12, then divided by 8”? A) 4 ÷ (12 − 8) B) (12 − 4) ÷ 8 C) (4 − 12)

Svetlanka [38]

The answer is B

As the question states that you need to "subtract 4 from 12" that means that you are taking 4 away from 12, so it would be 12-4.

Then it says to divide by 8. This means that for the subtraction to happen first, it must be withing parenthesis, so that would make the expression become

(12-4)÷8

Find what a equals in this equation. <img src="https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=x%28x%2Ba%29%28x%2B3%29%20%3D%20x%28x%2B3%29%28x-

Answer:

a = - 3

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation has common factors x(x + 3) on both sides

For the 2 sides of the equation to be equal, then the factor

(x + a) = (x - 3) and by comparison

a = - 3
