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.

"25%" means "0.25"
"of" means "times"

You said                                                  11 members =  0.25 x (the club)

Divide each side by  0.25 :      The club = (11 / 0.25)  =<em>  44 members

A decent-sized square plot of land in town is one acre. If Mr. Pearson wants to play football with his son Connor, then how far
sammy [17]
One acre of land is equal to 4046.86 sq.m.
To know how far they can throw the ball from corner to corner can be interpreted in two ways: throwing the ball diagonally across the field or throwing the ball horizontally across the field. For the first question, since the field is a square, you can use the equation Diagonal of Square = A x sq.root of 2.

In this case, the answer would be 89.97 m.

If the ball is thrown horizontally across the field, then you would only need to know the length of one side of the square, which is the square root of the area. Doing this would give you the answer 63.61 m.

What is the volume of the square pyramid with the base edges 24 ft and height
liberstina [14]

Answer:

A

Step-by-step explanation:

The volume of a pyramid is one third the height times the area of the base.

V = ⅓ h A

The base is a square, so the area is the width times length.

V = ⅓ h wl

Problem is, we don't know the height, only the slant length.  But we can use this to find the height.

If we cut a cross section down the middle of the pyramid, we get an isosceles triangle.  The base of the triangle is 24, and the legs are 37.

If we cut this triangle in half, we get two right triangles.  Each right triangle has a base of 12 and a hypotenuse of 37.

Now we can use Pythagorean theorem to find the height of the triangle, which is also the height of the pyramid.

c² = a² + b²

37² = 12² + h²

h = 35

Now we can find the volume.  h = 35, w = 24, and l = 24:

V = ⅓ h wl

V = ⅓ (35) (24) (24)

V = 6720

So the volume is 6720 ft³, or answer A.
