Answer:

Case 1 - 50388 ways when the couple is there in the group of 8 people selected out of 20 employees.

Case 2 - 75582 ways when the couple is not there in the group of 8 people selected out of 20 employees.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

The couple within the group can not be separated and hence instead of taking total 20 employees , it must be taken as 19 employees.

Now if the couple is there in the selected group of 8 people, then total 7 needs to be selected out of 19 and hence the total number of ways of selecting 7 people out of 19 is

^7C_{19} = 50388

If the couple is not there in the selected group of 8 people, then the total number of ways of selecting 8 people out of 19 is

^8C_{19} = 75582

jolli1 [7]

Answer:

6.21 times more

Step-by-step explanation:

Assuming 2.04 x 10^11 was only a typo

you would need to first equal the powers of 10

so 20.4 x 10^10 and 3.28 x 10^10

now that they have the same powers

\frac{20.4 * 10^{10}}{3.28 * 10^{10}}  = \frac{20.4}{3.28} = 6.219512...

if it's asking for how many times i would approximate it to 6.21 times more

The perimeter of GHJ
Dafna1 [17]
They have a scale factor of 5:6 so first we need to find the perimeter of KLM:
11 + 14 + 17 = 42
Then apply the scale factor of 5:6:
\frac{5}{6}  =  \frac{x}{42}
Set the denominators equal:
\frac{35}{42}  =  \frac{x}{42}
So we see that the perimeter of GHJ is 35.
