Rackham Graduate School has 8,000 students (5,000 PhD students and 3,000 masters stu- dents). The Rackham Student Government Executive Board has 4 student members: a President, a VP of Operations, a VP of Finance, and a VP of Administration. Reminder: no need to simplify your answers in this homework (unless problem explicitly says to). a) How many ways are there to choose the Exec Board from all Rackham students?
b) How many ways are there to choose the Exec Board so that there is at least one masters student and one PhD student? (for any of the 4 positions)
c) How many ways are there to choose the Exec Board if the VP positions have to be PhD students (the president can be either a PhD or Masters student)?
d) How many ways are there to choose the Exec Board so that there is at least one masters student VP?

a) 8,000!/(8000 - 4)! ways

b) 15,000,000 + 7998!/(7998 - 2)! ways

c) 5,000 + 7,999!/(7,999- 3)! ways

d) 3,000 + 7,999!/(7,999- 3)! ways

Step-by-step explanation:

The number of students at Rackham Graduate School = 8,000 students

The number of PhD students = 5,000

The number of masters students = 3,000

The number of student members of the Rackham Student Government Executive Board = 4 students

a) The number of ways there are to choose the Exec Board from all Rackham students = The number of ways to choose 4 students from 8,000 = 8,000!/(8000 - 4)!

b) The number of ways of having one Master student in the board = 3,000 ways

The number of ways of having one PhD student in the board after selecting a masters student = 5,000 ways

The number of ways of selecting the remaining 2 members =

7998!/(7998 - 2)!

The total number of ways of selecting at least one masters and one PhD in the board is therefore equal to 5,000 × 3,000 + 7998!/(7998 - 2)! ways

c) The number of ways of choosing the VP position as PhD = 5,000 ways

The number of ways of choosing the other three members = 7,999!/(8000 - 3)!

Therefore, the total number of ways = 5,000 + 7,999!/(7,999- 3)! ways

d) The number of ways of choosing a masters student as the VP position = 3,000 ways

The number of ways of choosing the other three members = 7,999!/(8000 - 3)!

Therefore, the total number of ways = 3,000 + 7,999!/(7,999- 3)! ways

step-by-step explanation:

the red lines denote the population of the bacteria after 35 hours. that would be 2,409.24. the y-intercept is the blue line which is 800 because that is the starting point. the equation used to make the graph is 800(1.032)^h, where h is the number of hours.
