the order they finish in?
a) 1/1320 b) 1/1728
c) 3/1728 d) 1/12
kindly solve it using permutation technique

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

A) 1/1320

Step-by-step explanation:

We know there are 12 runners in the race. Of these 12 people, one of them will get first place. In other words, 12 people have a chance of getting first place. Now there are 11 people remaining to get second place. Since one of the twelfth came first place, there are now 11 runners remaining to get second place. Finally, there are 10 people remaining. Since two of the 12 people came first and second, there are 10 people remaining who can get third place. So if a person was to correctly select the top 3 runners, then he would have a chance of 1/1320. You get this by multiplying 10, 11,12. You get 1320. since you have to pick one combination of 1st,2nd, and 3rd, the answer is A.

Dr yang buys a violin for £13200 plus vat at 20% dr yang pays a deposit for the violin he then pays the rest of the cost in 12 equal payments of £360 each month find the ratio of the deposit dr yang pays to the total of the 12 equal payments give your answer in its simplest form

Answers

Answer:

8/3

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Cost of violin = 13200 plus VAT at 20%

Cost of violin = (100 + 20)% * 13200

Cost of violin = 1.20 * 13200 = £15,840

Instalment pay = (360 * 12) = 4320

Therefore, deposit made equals ;

Total cost - Instalment pay

£(15,840 - 4320) = £11,520

Hence, ratio of deposit made to the total Instalment payment made ;

£11520 / £4320 = 8 / 3

C) 78,200

Step-by-step explanation:

If p represents the population in 2010, then the population in 2012 is ...

p + 0.30p = 1.30p

and the population in 2014 is ...

(1.30p) + 0.20(1.30p) = (1.30p)(1.20) = 1.56p

This is the same population as in 2015, so we have ...

1.56p = 122,000

p = 122,000/1.56 ≈ 78,200 . . . . rounded to hundreds

this proves that x = 1.5

because 12/8 = 1.5

then

2y + 10 = 22

subtract 10 from both sides : 2y = 12

then divide both sides by 2 to get y alone

y = 6

then

add x and y together : 6 + 1.5 = 7.7 or 7 1/2

The Marked price of an article is rupees 4500. After allowing some percent of discount and levying 10% VAT it is sold at 4400, find discount percentage

Answers

Answer:

given,

mp= 4500

now

discount amount=dis%of mp

=x%of 4500

=45x

now,

sp=mp- discount

=4500-45x

now,

vat=vat%of SP

=10%*4500-45x

=450-45x

now,

sp with vat=sp+vat amount

=4500-45x+450-45x

=4950-90x

now,

4950-90x=4400

or,-90x=-550

or, x=55/9

or, x=6.11%

therefore, dis percent is 6.11%

9514 1404 393

Answer:

11.11%

Step-by-step explanation:

Let d represent the discount, as a fraction. Then the final price is ...

4500(1 -d)(1 +10%) = 4400

1 -d = 4400/(1.10·4500)

d = 1 - (4400/4950) = 0.111... ≈ 11.11%

The discount percentage is about 11.11%.

A train leaves the station at time = 0. Traveling at a constant speed, the train travels 330 kilometers in 3 hours. Answers parts a and b. A. Write a function that relates the distance traveled d to time t. The function that relates the distance traveled d to the time is.

Answers

Answer:

The function that relates the distance traveled d to the time t is

f(t) = 110t, where d = f(t)

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question, we were told that the train is At a constant speed, the train travels 330 kilometers in 3 hours

We were told to write function that relates the distance traveled d to the time t, we can do this by writing a linear equation with those functions

Since we are told that the train travels 330 kilometers in 3 hours, then we can say the train travel (330/3) kilometers in 1 hour which means it travel 110 kilometers in 1 hour

Then d= 110t---------------eqn(1)

If if t = 0, then d = 0, as well since at t=0 the train is at the station

At t = 1 then d = 110.

From equation (1) d can be replaced by f(t) then we have

f(t) = 110t----------------eqn(2)

Now we replace d by f (t), because d = f t):

f(t) = 120t

Therefore, The function that relates the distance traveled d to the time is f(t) = 120t

Step-by-step explanation:

Cory is a bird watcher he estimates that 30% of the birds he sees are american robins, 20% are dark eyed juncos and 20% are slnc sparrows. he designs a simulation.

Answers

Answer:

I think C. 0.75

Step-by-step explanation:

The probability of seeing at least one robin in the next 5 birds is 0.75

How to determine the probability?

The representations are given as:

American robins = 0 to 2Dark eye juncos = 3 and 4Song sparrows = 5 and 6Others = 7 to 9

Using the above representations, the numbers that represent an occurrence of seeing at least one robin in the next 5 birds are:

05716 16803 32177 92290 72794 14333 79019 05943 77510 74051 87238 86481 94036 12749 24005

The number of occurrence is:

Number = 15

The number of simulation is 20

So, the probability of seeing at least one robin is:

P = 15/20

Divide

P = 0.75

Hence, the probability of seeing at least one robin is 0.75
