Wow… how is this a question? .-.
Answer:
(4,-1)
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that there are 12 persons, the first choice may be in 12 different ways, the second choice may be in 11 different ways, ther third in 10 different ways, the fourth in 9 different ways and the fith in 8 different ways, for a total of:
12x11x10x9x8 different combinations.
Now you have to take in account that 5x4x3x2 are repetitions. So you have to divide the previos counting by 5x4x3x2.
(12x11x10x9x8)/(5x4x3x2) = 792 different subcommittees.
Also, you can use the formula for combinations: C(m,n) = m! / (n! (m-n)!)
C (12, 5) = 12! / (5!) (12-5)! = [12x11x10x9x8x7!] / [5! 7!] = [12x11x10x9x8]/[5x4x3x2] = 792
Answer: 75 students.
Step-by-step explanation:
In the data set we have a total of 10 + 8 + 7 + 5 = 30 students.
of those, 10 want to go to the park, the percentage is:
(10/30)*100% = 33.3%
Then, out of the 225, we can expect that a 33.3% (or 0.333 in decimal form) want to go to the park, this is:
N = 225*0.333% = 74.925
We can roud it up, and get N = 75
So Sally can expect that 75 students want to go to the park
