In how many ways can four women be chosen from the group of 7 women?

What is the probability that all women will be chosen to attend the conference?
Enter a reduced fraction or decimal.

Answers

Answer 1

In 1820  different ways a group of four people can be selected from this group of 16.

In 35 ways four women can be chosen from the group of 7 women.

The probability that all women will be chosen to attend the conference is 1.92%.

What is probability?

The proportion of favourable outcomes to all possible outcomes of an event is known as the probability. The number of positive outcomes for an experiment with 'n' possible outcomes can be represented by the symbol x. The probability of an event can be determined using the following formula.

To find how many different ways can a group of four people be selected from this group of 16, we will implement the combination formula.

[tex]^n C_r=\frac{n !}{r ! (n-r) !}[/tex]

Where,

nCr = number of combinations

n = total number of objects in the set

r = number of choosing objects from the set

Here, n = 16 and r = 4, substituting the values we get

[tex]^{16} C_4=\frac{16 !}{4 ! (16-4) !}[/tex]

[tex]^{16} C_4 =[/tex] 1820

Hence, in 1820  different ways a group of four people can be selected from this group of 16.

To find how many ways can four women be chosen from the group of 7 women we will implement the combination formula.

Here, n = 7 women and r  = 4 women, substituting the values we get

[tex]^7 C_4=\frac{7 !}{4 ! (7-4) !}[/tex]

[tex]^7 C_4=[/tex] 35

Thus, in 35 ways four women can be chosen from the group of 7 women.

The probability that all women will be chosen to attend the conference is

[tex]\frac{^7 C_4}{^{16}C_4}[/tex] = 35/1820

       = 0.01923076

       = 1.92%

Thus, the probability that all women will be chosen to attend the conference is 1.92%.

What is a permutation?

A permutation is defined as a mathematical process that determines the number of different arrangements in a set of objects when the order of the sequential arrangements.

Sue picks a new password for her email that consists of 3 letters, 2 digits, and a special character (! or #) which is given in the question.

As per the given condition,

For the first letter, we have 26 options.

For the second letter, we have 25 options, because one letter is already used.

For the third letter, we have 24 options, because 2 letters are already used.

For the first digit, we have 10 options.

For the second digit, we have 9 options, because one is already used.

For the first special character (! or #), we have 2 options.

Then the total number of combinations is:

Combinations = 26×25×24×10×9×2 = 2,808,000

So if we can not repeat digits or letters, we can make 2,808,000 different passwords.

The value of the expression is [tex]-2x^2[/tex]-8x + 6.

Given expression:-

[tex](2x^2-5x+4)-(4x^2+3x-2)[/tex]

We have to find the value of the given expression.

We know that, while subtracting quadrating equations, we subtract like terms from like terms.

Like terms

Like terms are those that contain the same variables raised to the same power. Only the numerical coefficients are different. In an expression, only we can combine like terms.

For example : While adding (5x + 3) and (4x - 5), we will add 5x to 4x and 3 to -4 to get the answer that is 9x - 1.

Assume that a new lithium isotope, 8Li, is identified. It is a trace isotope, meaning that it exists in a very tiny quantity. How will this discovery affect the atomic mass of lithium?

Answers

Since the isotope has only a very little amount in nature, it does not largely affect the  atomic mass of lithium.

What is an isotope?

The term isotope has to do with the atoms of the same element that do have the same atomic number but different mass numbers. The implication of this is that isotopes have the same number of protons but do not have the same number of neutrons.

Note that the average atomic mass of an atom is the weighted average of the atomic masses of all the isotopes of the compound. The isotopes that contribute greatly towards the atomic mass are those that have a larger percentage abundance.

Identify the x-intercept and y-intercept for the equation 10x+5y=30

Answers

Considering the definition of a line, x-intercept and y-intercept, the  x-intercept and y-intercept are (3, 0) and (0,6) respectively.

Linear equation

A linear equation o line can be expressed in the form y = mx + b

where

x and y are coordinates of a point.m is the slope.b is the ordinate to the origin and represents the coordinate of the point where the line crosses the y axis.

y-intercept and x-intercept

The point [y-intercept] is where the line crosses the y-axis, and occurs when x = 0.

The point [x-intercept] is that value of x for which the expression is equal to 0 and the line crosses the x-axis.

y-intercept and x-intercept in this case

In this case, the line is 10x +5y=30. Expressed in the form y = mx + b, you get:

5y= 30 - 10x

y= (-10x + 30)÷5

y= -10/5x + 30/5

y= -2x +6

where:

m= -2b= 6

The point [y-intercept] is represented by the value of the y-intercept b. So the point [y-intercept] is (0,6).

Being the point [intersection x] that value of x for which the expression is equal to 0 or y is equal to 0, in this case it is calculated as:

0= -2x + 6

-6= -2x

(-6)÷ (-2)= x

3=x

Finally, the point [x-intercept] is (3,0).

The answers are subtraction, subtraction, and addition property of equality

There are 9 properties of equality, which are addition, subtraction, multiplication, division, distributive, substitution, reflexive, symmetric, and transitive. In this case, we are using the first 2. In algebra, whatever you do to one side has to be done to the other, in the case of the first problem x is being subtracted on both sides, which represents the definition of the subtraction property (If a = b, then a – c = b – c, a is the one side of the equation, b is the other side, and c is the subtraction done on both sides). The first one is the subtraction property of equality, then, and if we look at problem 2, the same thing is done (apart from that it is done with a number, which doesn't affect the property), so it is also the subtraction property.

Now the last problem seems to do the opposite, it seems to be adding instead, in this case, adding 1 on both sides. This follows the definition of the addition property of equality (If a = b, then a + c = b + c) since it is adding c (1) on both sides. So the last problem is the addition property of equality.

Find a relation between x and y such that the point (x, y) is equidistant from the point (2, -5) and (-2,9).​

Answers

Answer:

(0,2)

Step-by-step explanation:

x  = [tex]\frac{2-2}{2}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{0}{2}[/tex] = 0  We are finding the average of the x values (2 and -2)

y = [tex]\frac{-5+9}{2}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{4}{2}[/tex] = 2  we are finding the average of the y values (-5 and 9)

The relation between x and y such that the point (x, y) is equidistant from point(2, -5) and(-2, 9) = 2x + 7y = -14

Points (2, -5) and (-2, 9).

let (x, y) be A

Let (2, -5) = (-2, 9) = B

Ax = Bx (length)

Squaring on both sides

Ax² = Bx²

By distance formula

(x - 2)² + (y +5)² = (x + 2)² + (y - 9)²

x² - 4x + 4 + y² +10y + 25 = x² + 4x + 4 + y² - 18y + 81

8x + 28y = -56

by multiplying both sides by 4

2x + 7y = -14

This is the relationship between the points (x, y) which is equidistant to A and B.

Answers

a trough has ends shaped like isosceles triangles, with width 2 m and height 5 m, and the trough is 10 m long. then the height of the water change when the water is 4 m deep is 1/8 m/min

The depth of the water is 4/5 of the depth of the trough, so the width of the surface will be 4/5 of the width of the trough:

 4/5 × 2 m = 8/5 m

Then the surface area of the water is ...

 Area = LW = (10 m)(8/5 m) = 16 m²

The rate of change of height multiplied by the area gives the rate of change of volume:

 2 m³/min = (16 m²)(h')

 h' = (2 m³/min)/(16m²) = 1/8 m/min

Hence , the height of the water change when the water is 4 m deep is 1/8 m/min

According to the given figure,

We have:

∠A = 6x-35°

∠B = 3x+53°

The two parallel lines have been cut by another line.

(Note that when a line divides two parallel lines then the sum of the interior angles on the same side is 180° and the alternate interior angles are equal to each other.)

So, we will have the following expression:

∠A + ∠B = 180°

(6x-35+3x+53)° = 180°

9x+18 = 180

9x = 180-18

9x = 162

x = 162/9

x = 18

Now, putting the value of x in ∠A,

∠A = 6x-35°

∠A = (6*18-35)°

∠A = (108-35)°

∠A = 73°
