9514 1404 393

Answer:

  a) 3003

  b) 1419

Step-by-step explanation:

a) With no restrictions, the problem amounts to counting the number of combinations of 14 people taken 6 at a time. That is ...

  14!/(6!(14-6)!) = 3003 . . . teams with no restrictions

__

b) With the restrictions, there are two cases:

  (i) all 6 people are taken from the 12 that exclude the couple. That number of combinations is ...

  12!/(6!(12-6)!) = 924

  (ii) 4 people are taken from the 12 that exclude the couple, and the couple fills the last two team slots. That number is ...

  12!/(4!(12-4)!) = 495

The sum of the counts of these two cases is ...

  924 +495 = 1419 . . . teams with inseparable couple

Answer:

C) p(x) has a zero between x=2 and x=4

Step-by-step explanation:

For a polynomial p(x), p(a)=R means that, when p(x) is divided by x-a, the remainder is R.

This is called the remainder theorem

Therefore p(2)=1, p(4)=-1 means that when p(x) is divided x-2 and x-4 is 1 and -1 respectively.

Also the Intermediate value theorem says that, if p(a) and p(b) have opposite signs then there is a certain c on (a,b) where f(c)=0 i.e there is a zero between a and b

Therefore the correct answer is C
