Suppose that Professor Rodgers needs one small group of students from his class to participate in a focus group. There are 11 students in the class. How many different combinations of three selected students can Professor Rodgers create? number of combinations of three students: _________If Professor Rodgers decides he needs four students in the focus group, how many combinations can he create? number of combinations of four students: _____________

Answers

Answer:

(A) 165

(B) 330

Step-by-step explanation:

Total number of students in the class = 11

(A) How many different combinations of 3 selected students can he create?

ⁿCₓ = n! ÷ [(n - x)! x!]

n = 11,  x = 3

11! / [8! 3!]  = 165

HINT:  8! or 8 factorial represents [8x7x6x5x4x3x2x1]

(B) How many different combinations of 4 selected students can he create?

ⁿCₓ = n! ÷ [(n - x)! x!]

n = 11,  x = 4

11! / [7! 4!]  = 330

Same hint applies here, for all numbers with the factorial sign.

Suppose the average salary for a data scientist is $83,105 with a standard deviation of $10,503. What is the probability that the mean salary of 31 randomly selected data scientists is less than $80,000.

Answers

Answer:0.0499

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be a random variable that represents the salary for a data scientist.

Given: Average salary for a data scientist [tex]\mu=\$83105[/tex]

standard deviation [tex]\sigma=\$10503[/tex]

Sample size : n= 31

The probability that the mean salary of 31 randomly selected data scientists is less than $80,000.

[tex]P(\overline{X}<80000)=P(\dfrac{\overline{x}-\mu}{\dfrac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}}<\dfrac{80000-83105}{\dfrac{10503}{\sqrt{31}}})\\\\=P(z<-1.646)\ \ \ [z=(\dfrac{\overline{x}-\mu}{\dfrac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}}]\\\\=1-P(z<1.646)\ \ \ [P(Z<-z)=1-P(Z<z)]\\\\=1-0.9501= 0.0499[/tex]

Hence, the required probability = 0.0499.

What is the meaning of the slope in this situation?

Answers

Answers:

Slope = 5

Interpretation = Andre is saving 5 dollars per week

================================================

Work Shown:

The two points (0,40) and (4,60) are on the line

Use the slope formula

m = (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)

m = (60-40)/(4-0)

m = 20/4

m = 5

The slope is 5.

In this context, it means each time the number of weeks goes up by 1, the amount of his savings goes up by 5. In short, he's saving $5 per week.

note: the y intercept tells us that Andre started off with $40 in his account.

The slope is 5 in  slope-intercept form.

What is in slope-intercept form?

Y = mx + b, which defines a line, is an equation's slope-intercept form.When a line is graphed, its slope, m, and its point of intersection with the y-axis, b, also known as the y-intercept, are shown.To find answers for x, y, m, and b, utilize slope intercept form.

the y intercept tells us that Andre started off with $40 in his account.

Slope = 5

The two points (0,40) and (8,80) are on the line

P = 10x + 12

Step-by-step explanation:

The length of the rectangle is

L = 3x + 7

The width of the rectangle is

W = 2x - 1

The formula for perimeter of a rectangle is

P = 2L + 2W

Plug in the values for length and width and simplify.

P = 2(3x + 7) + 2(2x - 1)

P = 6x + 14 + 4x - 2

P = 10x + 14 - 2

Step-by-step explanation:

If you do the math and equations of all of these, you will find that:

10 is 2.5x bigger than 4 (Side lengths DE and BA)

and if we do the equation:

x · 2.5

(the x variable stands for the different side lengths of triangle ABC)

it will equal the side lengths of the bigger triangle.

and when I finished doing that, I multiplied all of the answers to find the area:

12.5 x 7.5 x 10 which altogether is 937.5

none of the other answers for the total of the triangle add up to be that, but side length EF is 7.5, which I used to get my total answer of 937.5.

So the answer is A and C

Step-by-step explanation:

so first you would ave to find the  unit rate,so 25.65/9=$2.85 then you would multiply 2.85*2 for the other 2 that she broke. You would get $5.70 add that to the 25.65 you  would get $31.35. the two panes of glass=$5.70 and altoger with the two pans of glass you would get $31.35

1.What is the core characteristic that defines a zero-based budget?

2.Bianca has take-home pay every month of $800. She anticipates having $675 of expenses in August.

3.In a zero-based budget, why is it important that she put the extra $125 in some budget category?

4.Where might you suggest Bianca budget that extra $125? Why?

5.Does using a zero-based budget mean that your bank account will hit $0 at the end of every month? Explain.





Say that Bianca has take-home pay of $800, she budgets every cent out at the start of the month, and she then she needs less gas money than expected in August. She no longer spends the full $65 she budgeted there. What should she do with the leftover?

Answers

Answer:

1. You account for every dollar you make to where your budget shows you have $0

2. She will have $125 leftover to budget out as she sees fit

3. If she does not account for it she may over spend or think she has extra money

4. I would put it in savings

5. No this is not what it means. This means that your paycheck will be able to cover your expenses.

6. You should put extra money in savings. You never know what will occur and savings can always help.

Step-by-step explanation:

Blanca has a savings of $125, she needs to allocate this amount to fulfill the zero-based budget conditions, as a saving she can allocate the remaining amount.

What is the zero-based budget?

It is defined as the budgeting method that allows you to fix an amount for everything such as utility expenses, savings, and miscellaneous expenses In other words income minus all expenses plus savings should be equal to zero.

1) The core characteristic of the zero-based budget as follows:

Strategy is dependent on what each unit can provide for the price.Quick changes can be made in the budget anytime if it is required to do so.All the people of the organization can participate in the budgeting process.The purposes of each unit are in line with the corporate aspirations.

2) Blanca has take-home pay every month = $800

Total expenses = $675

Savings = Income - Total expenses

= $800 - $675 ⇒ $125

We can assume Blanca has savings of $125 at the end of the month.

3) The extra amount = $800 - $675 ⇒ $125

According to a zero-based budget income minus all expenses plus savings should be equal to zero.

Therefore Blanca needs to allocate this amount($125) to some budget category.

4) Blanca has a total of $675 expenses she will have $125 as saving at the end of the month.

She should allocate this amount to savings because it will increase her wealth.

5) Zero-based budget does not mean that at the end of every month Blanca has zero dollars in her bank account because as per the definition zero-based budgeting means income minus expenses should be equal to zero. Blanca has savings and other emergencies funds in her bank account.

Thus, Blanca has a savings of $125, she needs to allocate this amount to fulfill the zero-based budget conditions, as a saving she can allocate the remaining amount.
