Answer:
56 number of ways
Step-by-step explanation:
This question is a combination question since it involves selection.
Generally, if r objects are to be selected from n pool of objects, this can be done in nCr number of ways.
nCr = n!/(n-r)!r!
If a manager receives 8 applications for a specific position and wants to narrow it down to 5, the number of ways he can do this is 8C5
8C5 = 8!/(8-5)!5!
= 8!/3!5!
= 8*7*6*5!/3*2*5!
= 8*7*6/3*2
= 8*7
= 56 number of ways.
This means that the manager can rank 5 applications in 56 number of ways
Answer: 23.8 to three s.f
Answer:
6 cm
Step-by-step explanation:
If the linear scale factor of two solids is k, then the volume scale factor is k^3.
The volume scale factor is 128/54 = 64/27 = (4/3)^3.
The linear scale factor is 4/3.
4.5 cm * 4/3 = 6 cm
Answer: The height of the larger container is 6 cm.
Answer: An error was made! All correlation coefficients: -1 ≤ r ≤ 1.
Using the formula for the nth term of an arithmetic progression.
an = a + (n - 1)d
a(4) = a + 3d = 55
a(9) = a + 8d = 90
a(9) - a(4) => 5d = 35
d = 35/5 = 7.
From a(4): a = 55 - 3d = 55 - 3(7) = 55 - 21 = 34
a(2) = a + d = 34 + 7 = 41.
