Team A) 45 people
Team B) 55 people

A)There are two ways to solve this problem, finding the number of combinations possible for Team B, or the number of combinations possible for Team A. 
Team A
It's a given that 20 mathematicians are on team A, which leavs the other 25 people for team A to be chosen from a pool of 80 (100- 20 mathletes)
80-C-25 = 80! / (25!/(80-25)!) =<span>363,413,731,121,503,794,368
</span>or 3.63 x 10^20
Solving using Team B
Same concept, but choosing 55 from a pool of 80 (mathletes excluded)
80-C-25 = 80! / (55!(80-55!) = 363,413,731,121,503,794,368
or 3.63 x 10^20

As you can, we get the same answer for both. 

B)
If none of the mathematicians are on team A, then we exclude the 20 and choose 45:
80-C-45 = 80! / (45!(80-45)!) = <span>5,790,061,984,745,3606,481,440
or 5.79 x 10^22

Note that, if you solve from the perspective of Team B (80-C-35), you get the same answer</span>

How do I solve this question?
Sati [7]

Answer:

m=2 and n=3

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Step</u> :-

Given  [ 2 x^{n}y^{2} ]^m = 4 x^6 y^4

using algebraic formula (a^m)^n= a^{mn}

now

2^{m} x^{mn} y^{2m} = 4x^{6} y^{4}

now equating 'x' powers, we get

x^{mn} = x^{6}

mn=6 ....(1)

now

y^{2m} = y^{4}

Equating 'y' powers ,we get

2 m=4

m=2

substitute m= 2 in equation (1)

we get

2 n=6

n=3

verification:-

substitute m=2 and n=3 , we get

[ 2 x^{n}y^{2} ]^m = 4 x^6 y^4

(2 x^{3} y^2)^2 = 4 x^6 y ^4\\

4 x^6 y^4 = 4 x^6 y^4

both are equating so m= 2 and n=3

65%of 186 = show how you did it so i can learn how to do it please
Natali [406]
It is pretty simple
All you have to do is multiply 186 times .65 which you get 120.9
So that's all you have to do

What is the first step in the constitution of a line perpendicular to AB and passing through an external point M?
NikAS [45]

take your compass on a point on your line. then draw a circle. take the 2 points in which the circle hit the line and draw 2 circles larger than half the distance between he 2 points. take the point that they intersect and and connect it to the line and you point M and it is purpendicular. does that make sense?
