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.

andre [41]

Answer:

The company has to produce more than 92 guitars and sell them for making a profit.

Step-by-step explanation:

These are the cost and revenue functions, where x represents the number of guitars to be manufactured and sold: R(x) = 120x, and  C(x) = 100x + 1840.

Therefore, the condition for no loss-no gain for manufacturing x number of guitars is

R(x) = C(x)

⇒ 120x = 100x + 1840

⇒ 20x = 1840

⇒ x = 92

Therefore, the company has to produce more than 92 guitars and sell them for making a profit. (Answer)

Susan plans to use 120 feet of fencing to enclose a rectangular area for a garden. Which equation best models the area, y, of th
mina [271]
Well we set the perimeter to 120 feet.
This means that 2x+2y=120
Now we know the area of a rectangle is xy so we have to solve for both x and y in the perimeter equation.

2x=120-2y
x=60-y

2y=120-2x
y=60-x

Now we plug these values into our area equation A=xy to get:
A=(60-y)(60-x)

Two window washers start at the heights shown. (A: 21 ft high rising 8 in per second. The other is 50 feet high descending 11inc
babunello [35]

For this case, the first thing we are going to do is write the generic equation of motion for the vertical axis.

We have then:

h = \frac {1} {2} gt ^ 2 + vo * t + h0

Where,

  • <em>g: acceleration of gravity </em>
  • <em>vo: initial speed </em>
  • <em>h0: initial height </em>

For the first body:

h1 = \frac {1} {2} gt ^ 2 + \frac {8} {12} * t + 21

For the second body:

h2 = \frac {1} {2} gt ^ 2 - \frac {11} {12} * t + 50

By the time both bodies have the same height we have:

h1 = h2\\

\frac {1} {2} gt ^ 2 + \frac {8} {12} * t + 21 = \frac {1} {2} gt ^ 2 - \frac {11} {12} * t + 50

Rewriting we have:

\frac {8} {12} * t + 21 = - \frac {11} {12} * t + 50

\frac {8} {12} * t + \frac {11} {12} * t = 50 - 21

\frac {19} {12} * t = 29

Clearing time:

t = 29 (\frac {12} {19})\\t = 18.31s

Answer:

 it takes 18.31s for the two window washers to reach the same height
