Using the concept of probability and the arrangements formula, there is a  

0.002 = 0.2% probability that the first 8 people in line are teachers.

----------------------------------

  • A probability is the <u>number of desired outcomes divided by the number of total outcomes.</u>
  • The order in which they are positioned is important, and all people will be positioned, and thus, the arrangements formula is used to find the number of outcomes.

The number of possible arrangements from a set of n elements is given by:

A_n = n!

----------------------------------

The desired outcomes are:

  • First 8 people are teachers, in <u>8! possible ways.</u>
  • Last 4 are students, in <u>4! possible ways.</u>

Thus, D = 8! \times 4!

----------------------------------

For the total outcomes, <u>number of arrangements of 12 people</u>, thus:

T = 12!

The probability is:

p = \frac{D}{T} = \frac{8! \times 4!}{12!} = 0.002

0.002 = 0.2% probability that the first 8 people in line are teachers.

You have two equations.
since the second is already isolated, sub in x-4 for every y in equation 1 so that 
x^{2} - 4 [(x-4)^{2}] =16&#10;
expand, collect like terms, factor to find x, then plug x value back into original equation to find y

A bicycle manufacturing company makes a particular type of bike. Each child bike requires 4 hours to build and 4 hours to test.
ivanzaharov [21]

Answer:

Yes, because the bike order meets the restrictions of 4c + 6a ≤ 120 and 4c + 4a ≤ 100

Step-by-step explanation:

4c + 6a ≤ 120:

You can set up the inequality 4c + 6a ≤ 120, because it takes 4 hours to build per child bike (c) and 6 hours to build an adult bike (a), all together this time cannot surpass 120 hours. That is why you use the 'less than or equal to' sign.

4c + 4a ≤ 100:

You can then set up the inequality 4c + 4a ≤ 100, because it takes 4 hours to test a child bike (c) and 4 hours to test an adult bike (a). Since 100 hours is the max amount of time they can use to test out bikes, you will use the 'less than or equal to' sign.

4(5) + 6(15) = 20 + 90 = 110. 110 is less than 120

4(5) + 4(15) = 20 + 60 = 80. 80 is less than 100

Yes, because the bike order meets the restrictions of 4c + 6a ≤ 120 and 4c + 4a ≤ 100
