Answer:
3460
Step-by-step explanation:
There are 25 species of trees, each with a known abundances. The question is how many possible ways to randomly select one tree there are.
We should calculate the number of combinations. Combinations, because we select item/s from a collection. In this case, when we select only one item, the combination is also a permutation. From set of n objects we select r. In our case: n=25, r=1.
The equation is: n!/r!(n-r)!= 25!/1!*24!=25*24!/24!=25
There are 25 different outcomes (events).
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
The ratio of adult to children is determined by number of adult / number of children.
We want to determine the three ratios that are equivalent to 2 adults 5 children. So we will divide each of the given number of adults and children.
1) 8 adults 20 children = 8/20 = 2/5
2) 5 adults 8 children = 5/8
3) 20 adults 50 children = 20/50 = 2/5
4) 4 adults 10 children = 4/10 = 2/5
So the three ratios that are equivalent to 2 adults 5 children are
8 adults 20 children,
20 adults 50 children and
4 adults 10 children
