2. lab groups of three are to be randomly formed (without replacement) from a class that contains five engineers and four non-engineers. (8pts) (a) how many different lab groups are possible

The number of different lab groups possible is 84.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

A class consists of 5 engineers and 4 non-engineers.

A lab groups of 3 are to be formed of these 9 students.

The problem can be solved using combinations.

Combinations is the number of ways to select k items from a group of n items without replacement. The order of the arrangement does not matter in combinations.

The combination of k items from n items is:

Compute the number of different lab groups possible as follows:

The number of ways of selecting 3 students from 9 is =

Thus, the number of different lab groups possible is 84.

so firstly, we need to isolate the y variables to be able to solve these inequalities. firstly, add 0.5x on both sides of the first inequality and subtract 1.5x on both sides of the second inequality:

now since the slope is positive for the first inequality, this means that the line going upwards belongs to the first inequality, and the line going downwards belongs to the second inequality.

next, since y ≥ in the first inequality, this means that the shaded region will be above the first inequality's line, thus shading regions a and b.

next, since y ≤ in the second inequality, this means that the shaded region is going to be below this line, thus shading regions a and c.

since both lines shade region a, this means that region a is the solution.

u = -(6/7)w

step-by-step explanation:

place all values with 'u' on one side of the equation.

4u + 8w = - 3u + 2w

4u + 3u = 2w - 8w

further simplify the equation by solving the addition and subtraction.

7u = - 6w

make 'u' the independent variable by placing its co-efficient on the right-hand side.

u = - (6/7)w
