In how many ways can a committee of 4 be chosen from a group of 9 people?

Answer:

126 ways.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the order does not matter, the solution is obtained through a combination where we choose "r of n", where r is the amount of things we choose and n the total number of things that can be chosen.

In the given case,

r = 4

n = 9

The combinations form uses factorial numbers. This is the formula:

nCr=\frac{n!}{(n-r)! r!}

The factorial function (symbol:!) means that descending numbers are multiplied to 1.

We substitute the values in the equation and get

9C4=\frac{9!}{(9-4)! 4!}

9C4=\frac{9.8.7.6.5!}{5! 4!}

9C4=\frac{9.8.7.6}{4!}

9C4=\frac{9.8.7.6}{4.3.2}

9C4=\frac{3024}{24}

9C4 = 126

Therefore, there are 126 ways to choose a committee of 4 from a group of 9 people.

Hope this helps!

Since this is a combination not a permutation problem, (order does not matter) you should use the "n choose k" formula.

C=n!/(k!(n-k)!)  where C is the number of unique combinations, n equals the total number of possible choices and k equals the specific number of choices.  In this case:

C=9!/(4!(9-4)!)

C=9!/(4!5!)

C=362880/(24*120)

C=362880/2880

C=126

So there are 126 unique ways to pick 4 people from a group of 9 people.

Say that you own property with a market price of $74,000. The state tax assessors have given it an assessed value of 48% of that
BigorU [14]

Answer:

A

Step-by-step explanation:

74,000 x .48 = 35520. 35520 is the amount of property you have to pay for.

35520 x 0.031 = 1,101.12.  1.101.12 is the amount you owe in property tax.

Acme Company has three identical manufacturing plants, one on the Texas Gulf Coast, one in southern Alabama, and one in Florida.
tino4ka555 [31]

Answer:

Somewhere from $50 million to $100 million

Step-by-step explanation:

Hurricanes usually hit the southernmost states of the USA and considering the fact that all three manufacturing plants are in the southernmost states, it would be reasonable to assume that a single hurricane can wipe out at least one or two since Alabama and Florida are really close to each other and Texas is known to get hurricanes. It usually just depends on where the hurricane occurs.
