(a)  there are 8C2  = 28 ways of picking 2 girls from 8
And there are  21C4  =  5985 ways of picking 4 boys

Required number of ways for 2g / 4b  = 28 * 5985 =  167,580 

(b) at least 2 girls means  combinations of 2g/4b , 3g,3b , 4g/2b , 5g 1b or 
6 girls.

2g/4b  = 167,580 ways
3g/3b =  8C3 * 21C3 =  56 * 1330 = 74,480
4g/2b =  8C4* 21C2  =   70 * 210 = 14,700 
5g 1b = 8C5* 21 =  56*21 = 1176
6 girls  = 8C6 = 28

adding these up we get the answer to (b) which is  257,964

Find the area of the composite shape. Pls help due tomorrow
S_A_V [24]

Answer:

203 sq ft

Step-by-step explanation:

if you draw an imaginary line horizontally at the 11 feet mark you have a triangle sitting on top of a rectangle

Area (triangle) = 1/2 x base x height

A = 1/2 x 14 x 7

A = 7 x 7

A = 49

Area (rectangle) = length x width

A = 11 x 14

A = 154

Total Area = 49 + 154

203 sq ft

Find the EXACT shaded Area
madam [21]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

area of sector=πr²/4=π ×6²/4=9 π ft²

area of one triangle= 1/2×6×6=18 ft²

area of three triangles=3×18=54 ft²

area of sector +area of three triangles=54+9 π ft²

area of circle=π×6²=36 π ft²

area of shaded region=36 π-9π-54=27 π-54=27(π-2) ft²

3/4 х36 how do I solve it
ANEK [815]

Hi there!

Convert 36 into 35 and 4/4 since if it is just a number, it can’t be multiply by 3/4.

36= 35 \frac{4}{4}

Multiply both fractions now but also turn 35 4/4 into a mixed number:

36=\frac{144}{4}

\frac{3}{4} x \frac{144}{4}= \frac{27}{1} = 27

Final Result: 27
