Question 1090642: An employer interviews 9 people for 5 management positions
in a company, and 4 of the 9 people are women.
If all 9. are qualified, in how many ways can the employer
fill the management positions if exactly 2 are women?
You can put this solution on YOUR website! An employer interviews 9 people for 5 management positions
in a company, and 4 of the 9 people are women.
So there are 4 women and 5 men
If all 9 are qualified, in how many ways can the employer
fill the management positions if exactly 2 are women?
Exactly 2 women are to be chosen from the 4, and since 5 people
are to be chosen, exactly 3 men are to be chosen from the 5.
(4 women choose 2)(5 men choose 3) = (4C2)(5C3) = (6)(10) = 60 ways.
