In how many ways can first, second, and third prizes be awarded in a contest with 210 contestants?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Not entirely sure about this because it was grabbed from someone else

There are 210 ways to win 1st place

There are 209 ways to win 2nd place

There are 208 ways to win 3rd place

Every time an award is won, a spot if taken, therefore one person is eliminated from possibly taking that spot.

Hope that makes sense :)

Answer 2

The total number of ways of contestants can win first, second, and third prizes will be 9,129,120.

What are permutation and combination?

A permutation is an act of correctly arranging things or pieces. Combinations are a method of taking stuff or pieces from an assortment of items or sets in which the order of the items is irrelevant.

The number of contestants is 210.

The number of ways of contestants who won the first prize will be given as,

⇒ ²¹⁰C₁

⇒ 210

The number of ways of contestants who won the second prize will be given as,

⇒ ²⁰⁹C₁

⇒ 209

The number of ways of contestants who won the third prize will be given as,

⇒ ²⁰⁸C₁

⇒ 208

Then the total number of ways of contestants can win first, second, and third prizes will be

⇒ 210 x 209 x 208

⇒ 9,129,120

The total number of ways of contestants can win first, second, and third prizes will be 9,129,120.

Answer:

x=  3.5

Step-by-step explanation:

2.4 x= 8.4

x= 8.4 /2.4

x=  3.5

Answer:

X= -3.5

Step-by-step explanation:

You are trying to find what x is, and x is being multiplied with -2.4. The easiest way to find the answer is to divide 8.4 by -2.4. This way, you will get your answer of -3.5. Because two negatives make a positive when you multiply, 8.4 is not negative.

How I solved this.

-2.4x = 8.4

8.4=total

-2.4= Needs to be multiplied with x

A production process produces 2.5% defective parts. A sample of five parts from the production process is selected. What is the probability that the sample contains exactly two defective parts?

Answers

Using the binomial distribution, it is found that there is a 0.0058 = 0.58% probability that the sample contains exactly two defective parts.

What is the binomial distribution formula?

The formula is:

[tex]P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}[/tex]

[tex]C_{n,x} = \frac{n!}{x!(n-x)!}[/tex]

The parameters are:

x is the number of successes.n is the number of trials.p is the probability of a success on a single trial.

In this problem, we want P(X = 2) with p = 0.025, n = 5, hence:

[tex]P(X = 2) = C_{5,2}.(0.025)^{2}.(0.975)^{3} = 0.0058[/tex]

Answer:

equation: 1368 = 380 +52xlabor hours: 19

Step-by-step explanation:

The desired equation will relate labor cost, parts cost, and total cost.

A.

The total cost is the sum of the parts cost and the product of labor hours and labor rate. We're told to use x to represent labor hours.

  total cost = part cost + (labor rate)(labor hours)

  1368 = 380 + 52x

__

B.

This equation can be solved in 2 steps:

  988 = 52x . . . . . . . step 1, subtract 380 from both sides

  19 = x . . . . . . . . . . step 2, divide both sides by the coefficient of x

The number of labor hours was 19.

What is the mode for the set of data?

Answers

Answer:

9

[tex]\rule{70mm}{2pt}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

In statistics, the mode is the value that is repeatedly occurring or you can say that has higher frequency in a given set of numbers or values. For instance in (1, 2, 5, 6, 2, 3) mode is 2 because it has appeared in the given set twice.

As in the given problem, the cross represents the number of a particular number, indicating whether the given number is repeated or not. And if repeated, how many times?

→ 5, 6, 10 = 1 (number of repetition; each)

→ 7, 8 = 2 (number of repetition; each)

9 = 3 (number of repetition)

Therefore, the mode for the given set of data is 9.

Event A has a 90% chance of occurring. Event B has a 20% chance of occurring. The correlation (i.e. whether they tend to occur together, or separately, or are unrelated) between the events is unknown.

What is the maximum probability that both event A and event B will occur?

What is the minimum probability that both event A and event B will occur?

Answers

The maximum probability that both event A and event B will occur is 18%.

How to compute the probability?

From the information, Event A has a 90% chance of occurring. Event B has a 20% chance of occurring. Therefore, the maximum probability will be:

= 90% × 20%

= 18%

The minimum probability that both event A and event B will occur will be:

= (90% + 20%) - 1

= 1.10 - 1

Step 1: Find the area of the larger rectangle

Area of a rectangle = base x height

Area = 4 x 3 = 12

Step 2: Find the area of the other rectangle

The tricky part about this one is that we aren't given the length of this rectangle. We do know, however, that the whole base of the figure is 6 and 3 units are taken up by the first rectangle. Therefore, the length of this rectangle is 3.

Area = 2 x 3 = 6

Step-by-step explanation:

because it is really simple, once you understand the transformations of equations.

remember, whatever we do to one side. we have to do also to the other side, so that the information in general stays the same.

(7 - 3x)/2 = 8 multiply both sides by 2

7 - 3x = 16 subtract 7 from both sides

-3x = 9 divide both sides by 3

-x = 3 multiply both sides by -1

x = -3

and that's the whole "secret" about solving an equation.

Answer:

x = -3

Step-by-step explanation:

In the question we are given with an equation that is ( 7 - 3x ) / 2 = 8 . And we have asked to find the value of x .

Solution : -

[tex] \longrightarrow \qquad \: \dfrac{7 - 3x}{2} = 8[/tex]

Step 1 : Multiplying both sides by 2 :

[tex] \longrightarrow \qquad \: \dfrac{7 - 3x}{ \cancel{2} }\times \cancel{2 }= 8 \times 2 [/tex]

On further calculations, We get :

[tex] \longrightarrow \qquad \: 7 - 3x = 16[/tex]

Step 2 : Subtracting with 7 on both sides :

[tex] \longrightarrow \qquad \: \cancel{ 7 }- 3x - \cancel{ 7 }= 16 - 7[/tex]

On calculating further, We get :

[tex] \longrightarrow \qquad \: - 3x = 9[/tex]

Step 3 : Dividing with -3 on both sides :

[tex] \longrightarrow \qquad \: \dfrac{ \cancel{ - 3}x}{ \cancel{-3}} = \cancel{\dfrac{9}{ - 3} }[/tex]

On calculating further, We get :

[tex] \longrightarrow \qquad \: \red{\underline{\boxed{\frak{x = - 3}}}}[/tex]

Therefore, value of x is -3 .

Verifying : -

Now , we are verifying our answer by substituting value of x in given equation . So ,

( 7 - 3x ) / 2 = 8

[ 7 - 3 ( -3 ) ] / 2 = 8

( 7 + 9 ) / 2 = 8

16 / 2 = 8

8 = 8

L.H.S = R.H.S

Hence, Verified .

Therefore , our answer is valid .

An object is thrown upward from the top of 96​-foot building with an initial velocity of 80 feet per second. The height h of the object after t seconds is given by the quadratic equation h=16t^2+80t+96. When will the object hit the​ ground?

Answers

The function of the object height is an illustration of a projectile motion

The object will never hit the ground

How to determine when the object hits the ground?

The function is given as:

h=16t^2+80t+96.

When the object hits the ground, h = 0

So, we have:

16t^2+80t+96 = 0

Divide through by 16

t^2+5t+6 = 0

Expand

t^2 + 3t + 2t + 6 = 0

Factorize

t(t + 3) + 2(t + 3) = 0

Factor out t + 3

(t + 2)(t + 3) = 0

Solve for t

t = -2 or t = -3

The time (t) cannot be negative.

Hence, the object will never hit the ground

You randomly choose one of the morales.Without replacing the first marble, you choose a second marble. What is the probability of choosing red and then green?
P(Red and green)=1/4*1/4=1/16

(I really need help) ​

Answers

Let’s say, hypothetically speaking, you chose the second marble without replacing the first marble so, events are hypothetically dependent. Events are dependent if the occurrence of one hypothetical event hypothetically does affect the likelihood that the other events occur. The probably of two or more dependent events A and B is the probability of A times the probability of B after A hypothetically occurs

P(A and B) = P(A) x P(B after A)

Choose the first marble

The total number of hypothetical marbles are, hypothetically speaking, 4 on a hypothetical basis, and there is one red marble.

P(red)=1/4

Choose the second marble

Without hypothetically replacing the hypothetical first marble, you choose the hypothetical marble, hypothetically speaking. So, the total hypothetical number of marbles are, hypothetically, 3, and there is, hypothetically, one green marble.

P(green) = 1/3

The probability of choosing red and then, hypothetically, green is:

P(red and green) = P(red) x P(green)
=1/4 x 1/3

= 1/12

P(red and green) is hypothetically equal to 1/12 on a hypothetical account.

Final hypothetical answer: 1/12
