Answer:

The number of ways to select 37 people from 101 is, 5,397,234,129,638,871,133,346,507,775.

Step-by-step explanation:

In mathematics, the procedure to select k items from n distinct items, without replacement, is known as combinations.

The formula to compute the combinations of k items from n is given by the formula:

{n\choose k}=\frac{n!}{k!\cdot (n-k)!}

Compute the number of ways to select 37 people from 101 as follows:

{101\choose 37}=\frac{101!}{37!\cdot (101-37)!}

        =\frac{101!}{37!\times 64!}\\\\=\frac{101\times 100\times 99\times....64!}{37!\times 64!}\\\\=5397234129638871133346507775

Thus, the number of ways to select 37 people from 101 is, 5,397,234,129,638,871,133,346,507,775.

the first transformation is drawn in light grey
the second transformation is drawn in dark grey
the third transformation is described as how it should be.


Choice I, picture I: 
Rotate 180°, reflect over the x-axis, reflect over the line y=x

the last transformation should be : reflect with respect to the y-axis


Choice II, picture II: 
Reflect over the x-axis, rotate 180°, reflect over the x-axis

the last transformation should be : reflect with respect to the y-axis



Choice III, picture III: 
Rotate 180°, reflect over the y-axis, reflect over the line y=x

the last transformation should be : reflect with respect to the x-axis



Choice IV, picture IV: 
Reflect over the y-axis, reflect over the x-axis, rotate 180°

the last transformation should be : rotate 180° CORRECT!

What is the volume of the right rectangular prism?
Ivahew [28]
I saw the image that should have been included in this problem.

It was a rectangular prism. It can also be identified as a right prism because its bases are aligned one directly above the other and its lateral faces are rectangular.

The image has the following measurements:
length = 7 inches
width = 5 inches
height = 4 inches

volume = length * width * height
v = 7 in * 5 in * 4 in
v = 140 in³  Choice B i believe.
