The dance team has 9 dancers to perform different roles in each performance. The probability that the team selects the same order as last performance is 1 divided by 362880 . Explain where each the numerator and denominator come from. What is the probability that the team puts the top hip hop dancer in the third position and top break dancer in the first position? Assume these are not the same people. Create a question, related to the dancers, where you use the indirect method, n(A’), to solve.

P = 1 /362880

Where the numerator is the event of selecting the same order as last performance that is 1.

The denominator is the total number of possible events of selecting the 9 dancers.

p = 1/72

Therefore, there is a 1/72 probability that the team puts the top hip hop dancer in the third position and top break dancer in the first position.

Step-by-step explanation:

The probability that the team selects the same order as last performance is 1 divided by 362880

Explain where each the numerator and denominator come from

The probability that the team selects the same order as last performance is

P = 1 /362880

Where the numerator is the event of selecting the same order as last performance that is 1.

The denominator is the total number of possible events of selecting the 9 dancers.

Total number of dancers = 9

The 1st dancer can be selected in 9 ways

The 2nd dancer can be selected in 8 ways

The 3rd dancer can be selected in 7 ways

The 4th dancer can be selected in 6 ways

The 5th dancer can be selected in 5 ways

The 6th dancer can be selected in 4 ways

The 7th dancer can be selected in 3 ways

The 8th dancer can be selected in 2 ways

The 9th dancer can be selected in 1 ways

So the total number of ways = 9×8×7×6×5×4×3×2×1 = 362880

What is the probability that the team puts the top hip hop dancer in the third position and top break dancer in the first position?

Lets us put the top hip hop dancer in the third position and top break dancer in the first position then the remaining 7 dancers can be selected in

7×6×5×4×3×2×1 = 5040 ways

So the required probability is,

P = 5040/362880

P = 1/72

P = 0.0139

Therefore, there is a 1/72 probability that the team puts the top hip hop dancer in the third position and top break dancer in the first position.

infinitely many solutions

step-by-step explanation:

we have been given the equation;

2(2x + 3) = -4 + 2(2x + 5)

we need to determine the value of x.

2(2x + 3), we expand this expression to obtain 4x + 6

similarly 2(2x + 5) will become 4x + 10

now we have;

4x + 6 = -4 + 4x + 10

4x + 6 = 4x + 10 - 4

4x + 6 = 4x + 6

the expression on the left hand side is identical to the one on the right hand side. therefore, we are looking at just a single straight line whose equation is;

y = 4x + 6

consequently, we shall have infinitely many solutions
