We form a committee of 8 people, to be chosen from 15 women and 12 men. (a) How many possible committee can be formed

eimsori [14]

Using the combination formula, it is found that 2,220,075 committees can be formed.

The order in which the people are chosen is not important, hence, the <em>combination formula</em> is used to solve this question.

<h3>Combination formula: </h3>

$C_{n,x}$ is the number of different combinations of x objects from a set of n elements, given by:

$C_{n,x} = \frac{n!}{x!(n-x)!}$

In this problem, 8 people are chosen from a set of 12 + 15 = 27, hence:

$C_{27,8} = \frac{27!}{8!19!} = 2220075$

2,220,075 committees can be formed.

How much should a family deposit at the end of every 6 months in order to have $4000 at the end of 3 years? The account pays 5.9

ra1l [238]

We are asked to determine the present value of an annuity that is paid at the end of each period. Therefore, we need to use the formula for present value ordinary, which is:

$PV_{ord}=C(\frac{1-(1+i)^{-kn}}{\frac{i}{k}})$

Where:

$\begin{gathered} C=\text{ payments each period} \\ i=\text{ interest rate} \\ n=\text{ number of periods} \\ k=\text{ number of times the interest is compounded} \end{gathered}$

Since the interest is compounded semi-annually this means that it is compounded 2 times a year, therefore, k = 2. Now we need to convert the interest rate into decimal form. To do that we will divide the interest rate by 100:

$\frac{5.9}{100}=0.059$

Now we substitute the values:

$PV_{ord}=4000(\frac{1-(1+0.059)^{-2(3)}}{\frac{0.059}{2}})$

Now we solve the operations, we get:

$PV_{\text{ord}}=39462.50$

Therefore, the present value must be $39462.50

For this set of data,<br> 89, 88, 84, 87, 89, 84, 84, 83, 85, 89, 84<br> Find the standard deviation

Ilia_Sergeevich [38]

Answer: 2.2962419891482

Step-by-step explanation: First get the mean of the numbers or the average

the mean in this case is 86

then subtract each number by the mean of 86

the numbers then become : 3, 2, -2, 1, 3, -2, -2, -3, -1, 3, -2

then square all the numbers to get : 9, 4, 4, 1, 9, 4, -4, 9, 1, 9, 4

then find the mean of those numbers which is 5.2727272727273

then find the square root of this number to find the standard deviation

2.2962419891482 is the standard deviation
