A 20-person fraternity is making their weekend plans around 5 different parties in IV. Each brother will attend exactly one of t

he parties. Fraternity rules state that the fraternity must have a representative at each party. Assume that only the number of brothers that show up at a party is important, i.e. the brothers are indistinguishable. (a) How many different arrangements of plans are possible

Answer:

3876

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the following :

Fraternity members = 20

They are to attend 5 different parties in groups of 4

Meaning a group = 4 persons

Atleast one brother will attend exactly one of the parties. (the brothers are indistinguishable).

Then, exactly one brother at a party (20 - 1) = 19, since they are indistinguishable.

Group members are in 4's

19C4

From: nCr = n! /(n-r)! r!

19C4 = 19! / (19 - 4)! 4!

= 19! / 15! 4!

= (19 * 18 * 17 * 16) / (4 * 3 * 2)

= 93024 / 24

= 3876

At a local grocery store, apples cost $0.50 each and bananas cost $0.30 each. The expression 0.50x + 0.30y can be used to find t
JulsSmile [24]

(1) x represents the number of apples bought, y represents the number of bananas.

(2) each term represents the total costs of a given fruit, so 0.50x is the total cost of apples and 0.30y is total cost of bananas.

(3) The coefficients are unit prices: coefficient 0.50 is the price of 1 apple, 0.30 is the price of 1 banana.

Help? Use the law of sines to find the length of side c
Ahat [919]
<h3>✽ - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - ~<u>Hello There</u>!~ - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - ✽</h3>

➷ a/sinA = c/sinC

Substitute in the values:

37/sin(42) = c/sin(41.5)

Multiply both sides by sin(41.5)

37/sin(42) x sin(41.5) = c

Solve:

c = 36.63999457

The correct answer would be C. 36.64

The average heights of four samples taken from a population of students are shown in the table. Which of these is most likely cl
Ne4ueva [31]

Answer:

It would be D, 62

Step-by-step explanation:

The sample size for the group with the average height is the highest, being at 40 instead of 30, 20, or 10, and therefore has the most accurate average height.

James is four years younger than Austin. If three times James' age is increased by the square of Austin's age, the result is 28.
lara31 [8.8K]
Let's use J for James's age and A for Austin's age. The equations are:

J = A - 4
3J + A² = 28

Just plug (A - 4) in the place of J in the second equation. This gives you:

3(A - 4) + A² = 28
-->
A² + 3A - 12 = 28
--> 
A² + 3A - 40 = 0
--> 
(A - 5)(A + 8) = 0
-->
A = 5 or -8

-8 is nonsense, so Austin is 5 years old. Therefore, James is 1 year old.

Ramona's backyard is fenced and represented by parallelogram YARD with measures in meters. She installed a 12-meters fence to se
Alisiya [41]
The fencing line x is the height of a rectangle triangle of base = y, hypothenuse of 9 m, so we use Pythagoras theorem to solve:

hyp^2 = height^2 + base^2
9^2 = x^2 + y^2
x^2 = 81 - y^2


we can see that x is also the height of another rectangle triangle of base = 15 - y, hypothenuse of 12 m, so we use Pythagoras theorem to solve:
hyp^2 = height^2 + base^2
12^2 = x^2 + (15 - y)^2

lets expand:
144 = x^2 + 225 - 30y + y^2

substitute x^2 from the first equation in the last:
144 = 81 - y^2 + 225 - 30y + y^2
144 = 81 + 225 - 30y
30y = -144 + 81 + 225
y = 5.4 m

substitute in the fence equation:
x^2 = 81 - y^2
x^2 = 81 - 5.4^2
x = 7.2 m that is the length of the fence
