If one is to choose among given choices and the order is not important, we use the concept of combination. First, we calculate for the sample space or number available since there is a total number of 12 electives and a student may choose 2 out of them.                           
S = 12C2
That is "the sample space is equal to combination of 12 taken 2". The answer to this is equal to 66. 

Next, we determine the number of outcomes. The equation will be,
                        O = (5C1) x (3C1) 
That is "outcome is equal to combination of 5 taken 1 times combination of 3 taken 1". This is equal to 15. The probability is equal to,
                        P = O/S

Substituting,
                        P = (15/66) = 0.227270
The answer to this item is the third choice.

What interest will be earned if $6300 is invested for 3 years at 12% compounded monthly?  Write your answer rounded to the neare
Butoxors [25]
Answer:
Interest earned = 2713.8

Explanation:
We will solve this problem on two steps:
1- get the final amount after three years
2- get the interest earned by subtracting the initial amount from the final one.

1- getting the final amount after 3 years:
The formula that we will use is as follows:
A = P (1 + r/n)^(nt)
where:
A is the final amount we want to calculate
P is the initial amount = 6300
r is the interest = 0.12
n is the number of compounds per year =12
t is time in years = 3

Substitute to get the final amount:
A = P (1 + r/n)^(nt)
A = 6300 (1 + 0.12/12) ^ (12*3)
A = 9013.8

2- getting the interest earned:
Interest earned = final amount - initial amount
Interest earned = 9013.8 - 6300
Interest earned = 2713.8

Hope this helps :)

There are seven boys and five girls in a class. The teacher randomly selects three different students to answer questions. The f
Aleks [24]

The probability of picking one girl would be \frac{5}{12}. That is because there are 5 girls out of the 12 students, and the probability of an event occuring is: \frac{\text{# of things you want}}{\text{# of things are possible}}.

Using that same logic, the next student should be easier. We reduced the student population by 1, so we have 11 possible ways it can happen now instead of 12, so that gives us:\frac{7}{11}, for the probability of picking a boy as the second pick.

And lastly, using the same logic shown above, the probability of picking a girl on the third pick would be:\frac{4}{10}.

We are not done, though. We have the separate probabilities, but now we have to multiply then together to figure out the probability of this exact event happening:

\frac{5}{12}*\frac{7}{11}*\frac{4}{10}=\frac{140}{1320}

Which when reduced is:

\frac{7}{66}

schepotkina [342]

Answer:

Option C

Step-by-step explanation:

A function g(x) = x² has been given as the parent function.

This function then shifted 5 units down.

Translated  function formed will be f(x) = x² - 5

Further this graph has been shifted 4 units to the left then the function will become

f(x) = [x - (-4)]² - 5

f(x) = (x + 4)² - 5

Therefore, option C is the answer.
