14C3 = 14! / 11!3! 

<span>= 14 x13 x12 / 3x2x1 </span>
<span>= 2184 / 6 </span>
<span>= 364 different combinations </span>

<span>The first movie can be any of 14 </span>
<span>As you have already seen one the second movie can be any of the 13 remaining </span>
<span>As you have already seen two the third movie can be any of the 12 remaining. </span>

<span>Therefore there are 14 x 13 x 12 = 2184 PERMUTATIONS of movies you can see. </span>
<span>However among those 2184 different permutations will be instances where you have watched the same three movies but just in a different order. </span>
<span>eg ET, The Piano, Harry Potter = ET Harry Potter The Piano = The Piano, ET, Harry Potter = The Piano Harry Potter ET = Harry Potter ET The Piano = Harry Potter The Piano ET. </span>
<span>For each set of three films there are 3! or 3x2x1 or SIX different ways they can be arranged in. </span>
<span>Therefore we need to DIVIDE the above 2184 permutations by 6 to get the number of COMBINATIONS of different films that can be watched. </span>
<span>2184 / 6 = 364</span>

44 students completed some homework and the histogram shows information about the times taken. Work out an estimate of the inter
Vilka [71]

Answer:

q1=11

q3= 33

Step-by-step explanation:

The data set has 44 number of students. The first quartile is 25 %  of the numbers in the data set . So

25 % of 44 = 25/100 * 44= 0.25 *44 = 11

So the first quartile lies at 11.

Similarly the third quartile lies at the 75 % of the numbers of the data set . So

75 % of 44 = 75/100 * 44= 0.75 *44 = 33

So the third quartile lies at 33.

1. In a batch of 10 items, we wish to extract a sample of 3 without replacement. How many
svetlana [45]

Answer:

1) 120

2) E (Z) = 12 and Variance of Z = 90

a) 5 liters

Step-by-step explanation:

1. We can find this by suing combinations.

Here n= 10 and r= 3 so n C r

= 10 C 3= 120

2. E(X) = 8 and E(Y) = 3

Z = 2X - 3Y +5

E(Z ) = 2 E (X) - 3(E)(Y) +5   ( applying property for mean)

       = 2(8) - 3(3)+ 5 = 16+5-9= 21-9= 12

V(X) = 9 and V(Y) = 6.

V(Z) = E(Z )²-  V(X) *V(Y)   (applying property for Variance for two variables )

        = 144- 54= 90

3. 55 liters contain adulterated milk in 7: 4.

So it contains 4/ 11*55= 20 liters of water

But we want to make it a ratio of 7:6

the water will be 6/13 *55= 25.38 when rounded gives 25 liters of water

So 25- 20 = 5 liters must be added to make it a ratio of 7:6
