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.

HELP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Answer:

To do this I am pretty sure your going to have to do some hard calculations.

<u><em>Lets go deeper</em></u>

<u><em></em></u>

so because it is a rectangle every angle is a right angle according to the property of a rectangle.

A right angle is 90 degress

So 8x+18=90
90-18=72

8x=72

72/8=9

x=9
