8. David and Susan belong to a math club at their school. There are 6 boys and 8 girls in the club. How many different ways can a 5-person committee be selected from the 14
club members under each of the following conditions?
a. There must be 2 boys and 3 girls
b. There must be at least 2 boys.
c. David (a boy) and Susan (a girl) must be on the committee
d. There must be more girls than boys

Part A

We'll use the nCr combination formula. This is because order doesn't matter on a committee. Each person has equal rank.

We have n = 6 boys and r = 2 slots for them. This means there are different ways to pick the two boys for the committee.

Here are the steps as to how I got that value of 15

Through similar steps, you should find that . There are 56 ways to pick the three girls from 8 girls in the math club. This time I used n = 8 and r = 3 in the formula.

We found there are 15 ways to pick the boys and 56 ways to pick the girls. Overall, there are 15*56 = 840 ways to pick the five students such that there are 2 boys and 3 girls.

==========================================================

Part B

The phrasing "at least 2" means "2 or more".

The number of boys that could be on the committee is a number from the set {2,3,4,5}.

We add up the results of each bullet point

840+560+120+6 = 1526

==========================================================

Part C

Davin and Susan must be on the committee. So the 5 initial seats drop to 5-2 = 3 seats left after locking in those two people.

Afterward, there are no restrictions on the 3 remaining seats.

There are n = 14-2 = 12 students left and r = 3 slots to fill.

Use the nCr combination formula to get

==========================================================

Part D

If there must be more girls than boys, then the number of girls could be from the set {3,4,5}

Add up the results

840+420+56 = 1316

the figures below are made out of circles, semicircles, quarter … find the area and the perimeter of each figure and give your answers as a completely simplified exact value in terms of π (no approximations). remember that we'll also have to cut whatever areas we get in half, since we're only dealing im pretty sure that is the right answer
