Stefan and some friends organized a party for the people in his building. The party was held at the park across the street. Stefan and his friends used four tables for all the dishes the guests brought to the party. The tables were meters long, 2.48 meters long, meters long, and 2.84 meters long. Demonstrate one way to model these numbers to compare them. Enter each as a decimal and order them from greatest to least using symbols.

Afriend of mine is giving a dinner party. his current wine supply includes 10 bottles of zinfandel, 8 of merlot, and 11 of cabernet (he only drinks red wine), all from different wineries. (a) if he wants to serve 3 bottles of zinfandel and serving order is important, how many ways are there to do this? ways (b) if 6 bottles of wine are to be randomly selected from the 29 for serving, how many ways are there to do this? ways (c) if 6 bottles are randomly selected, how many ways are there to obtain two bottles of each variety? ways (d) if 6 bottles are randomly selected, what is the probability that this results in two bottles of each variety being chosen? (round your answer to three decimal places.) (e) if 6 bottles are randomly selected, what is the probability that all of them are the same variety? (round your answer to three decimal places.)
