I run a book club with $n$ people, not including myself. Every day, for $365$ days, I invite five members in the club to review a book. What is the smallest positive integer $n$ so that I can avoid ever having the exact same group of five members over all $365$ days?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

if we have n people and we want to do groups of 5, the total number of different combinations is:

[tex]c = \frac{n!}{(n - 5)!5!}[/tex]

find the smallest n such c > 365.

let's do it by brute force:

if n = 5, we have:

[tex]c = 5C_5 = 5[/tex]

if n = 6

[tex]c =6C_5 =6[/tex]

if n = 7

[tex]c = 7C_ 5= 21[/tex]

if n = 8

[tex]c = 8C_5 = 56[/tex]

if n = 9

[tex]C = 9!/(4!*5!) = 126[/tex]

so 9 is not enough, let's see N = 10

C = 10!/(5!*5!)  = 252

10 is not enough, let's see with 11.

C = 11!/(6!*5!) =  462

So you need at least 11 members in the club.

Then the minimum number of members such we have more than 365 combinations is 11 members

Answer 2

Client need al least 11 members in the club.

Permutation and Combination

According to the question,

Group of five members, the combination will be:

→ [tex]c = \frac{n!}{(n-5)! \ 5!}[/tex]

By using Brute force,

If n = 5,

c = 5,

C₅ = 5

If n = 6,

c = 6,

C₅ = 6

If n = 7,

c = 7,

C₅ = 21

If n = 8,

c = 8,

C₅ = 56

Now,

If n = 9,

→ C = [tex]\frac{9!}{(4!\times 5!)}[/tex]

      = 126

and, If n = 10,

→ C = [tex]\frac{10!}{(5!\times 5!)}[/tex]

      = 252

and, If n = 11,

→ C = [tex]\frac{11!}{(6!\times 5!)}[/tex]

      = 462

Then perhaps the minimal number of individuals required to have more than 365 possible combinations seems to be 11.

Thus the response above is correct.

However, since 2 ( x + 2y = 2 ) results in 2x + 4y = 4 and the second equation reads as 2x + 4y = -8, there is no solution to this system of equations since 4 does not equal -8.

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

regular octagon rotates 360° about its center. How many times does the image of the octagon coincide with the preimage during the rotation?

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

because A regular octagon is a closed figure with sides of the same length and internal angles of the same size. so if it is rotated 360 degrees it should coincide with its preimage after every 45 degrees.

so 360/45= 8 times

Answer:

8 times

Step-by-step explanation:

An octagon has eight sides of equal length and eight angles of same measure. So, If it is rotated 360 degrees about its center. It would coincide with all of its 8 sides. So, it will coincide with it's pre-image 8 times.

Answer: The equation would NOT help us solve for the length and width of the classroom is "[tex]x + 2y = 90[/tex]".

Step-by-step explanation:

Let y be the width of the rectangular classroom floor and x be the length of the rectangular classroom floor .

Given ,

The perimeter of a rectangular classroom floor is 90 feet.

The length of the floor is twice the  width.

i.e. Length =2 (width)

i.e. x= 2y ..(i)

Also, perimeter = 2(length+width)

[tex]i.e. 2(x+y)=90\\\\\Rightarrow\ 2x+2y=90[/tex]

When we put value of x from (i), we get

[tex]2(2y) + 2y = 90[/tex]

Hence, the equation would NOT help us solve for the length and width of the classroom is "[tex]x + 2y = 90[/tex]".

Probability of getting total of three when two fair dice rolled is equals to [tex]\frac{1}{18}[/tex] .

What is probability?

" Probability is defined as the ratio of number of favourable outcomes to the total number of outcomes."

Formula used

Probability [tex]= \frac{Number of favourable outcomes}{Total number of outcomes}[/tex]

According to the question,

Dan rolls two fair dice,

Possible outcomes are [tex]= \{ (1,1), (1,2), (1,3) , (1,4). .........., ( 6,5), (6,6)\}[/tex]

Total number of outcomes [tex]= 36[/tex]

Condition given,

Substitute the value in the formula of probability we get,

Probability of getting [tex]3[/tex]

[tex]= \frac{2}{36}\\\\= \frac{1}{18}[/tex]
