Set up the problem, but use a calculator to find the number of outcomes for the permutation. Eight horses run a race. In how many ways can the first three finishers turn out?

Answers

Answer 1
Answer:  336

Explanation:

Label the slots A,B,C for first through third place.

There are 8 choices for slot A, 7 for slot B, and 6 for slot C. We start with 8 and count our way down until we get to the final slot. Then we multiply out those values

8*7*6 = 336

There are 336 ways to select three people from a pool of eight overall.

-----------------

If you want to use the permutation formula, then your steps might look like this

[tex]_n P _r = \frac{n!}{(n-r)!}\\\\_8 P _3 = \frac{8!}{(8-3)!}\\\\_8 P _3 = \frac{8!}{5!}\\\\_8 P _3 = \frac{8*7*6*5!}{5!}\\\\_8 P _3 = 8*7*6\\\\_8 P _3 = 336\\\\[/tex]

Note how the 5! terms cancel out on the second to last step, leaving behind the expression 8*7*6 which was found earlier.

On Monday, Crisitan groomed 15 dogs in 10 hours and Kenneth groomed 10 dogs in 8 hours. If they each make $12.75 per dog, how much did they each make on Monday?

Answers

Answer:

Christian made $191.25 and Kenneth made $127.50 each.

Step-by-step explanation:

With each dog, you multiply how many dogs with the amount of cash they get each dog.

Christian: 15x12.75= $191.25

Kenneth: 10x12.75= $127.50

So you just multiply the amount of dogs with money :)

The volume of a cube is 8cm3, find the length of one of it's sides​

Answers

Answer:

The side length is 2 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

The volume of a cube is s^3

V = s^3

8 = s^3

Take the cube root of each side

8 ^ 1/3 = s^3 ^ 1/3

2 = s

The side length is 2 cm

Answer:

2 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

The volume of a cube can be found using the following formula:

V=s^3

where s is the length of one side. We know the volume is 8 cm^3, therefore we can substitute that value in for V.

8 cm^3=s^3

We want to find what the side length is. The side length is being cubed. The inverse of a cube is the cube root. Therefore, we must take the cube root of both sides, or raise both sides to the power of 1/3.

(8 cm^3)^1/3=(s^3)^1/3

(8 cm^3)^1/3=s

2 cm=s

The length of one side is 2 centimeters.

what is the area of the figure below use 3.14 for pie

Answers

Answer:

Answer CL  586 cm^2

Step-by-step explanation:

Hello.  It's pi, not pie.

The area of the triangle is A1 = (1/2)(base)(height) = (1/2)(18 cm)(7 cm), or

A1 = 63 cm^2.

The area of the rectangle is A2 = (base)(height) = (18 cm)(22 cm) = 396 cm^2.

The area of the semicircle is A3 = (1/2)(pi)(9 cm)^2 = 3.14(81 cm^2)(1/2) = 127 cm^2

Thus, the total area of the figure is A = 127 cm^2 + 396 cm^2 + 63 cm^2, or

586 cm^2 approximately.

Maria, Max, Molly, and Mitch are all picking apples at an orchard. The number of apples Max picks is the number of apples Maria picks squared. Molly picks the number of apples that Max and Maria pick combined. Mitch picks the number of apples Molly picks squared plus the number of apples that Maria picks. If Maria picks 3 apples, then how many apples does Mitch pick

Answers

Answer:

147

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: Maria=3

Max=3 squared=9

Molly=Max+Maria=9+3=12

Mitch=Molly squared+Maria=144+3=147

Hope this helps!

Solution:

Since Max picks the number of apples that Maria does but squared, then Max picks 3^2=3 * 3=9 apples. Since Molly picks the number of apples that Maria picks plus the number that Max picks, Molly picks 3+9=12 apples. Finally, Mitch picks the number Molly picks squared plus the number Maria picks, so Mitch picks 12^2+3=12 * 12 +3=144+3=147 apples.

Can someone help me with the below question???

Answers

Answer:

so 2a+3b=±13

Step-by-step explanation:

4a²+9b²=97

ab=6

2a+3b=?

by using formula

(a+b)²=a²+b²+2ab

(2a+3b)²=(2a)²+(3b)²+2(2a)(3b)

(2a+3b)²=4a²+9b²+12ab

putting values

(2a+3b)²=97+12(6)

(2a+3b)²=97+72

(2a+3b)²=169

taking square root on both sides

√(2a+3b)²=√169

2a+3b=±13

i hope it will help you

Answer:

2a+3b = 13

Step-by-step explanation:

Using this formula

[tex](x+y)^2 = x^2+y^2+2xy[/tex]

Where,

x = 2a and y = 3b

Putting in the above formula

=> [tex](2a+3b)^2=4a^2+9b^2+12ab[/tex]

Putting  4a²+9b² = 97 and ab = 6

=> (2a+3b)² = 97+12(6)

=> (2a+3b)² = 97+72

=> (2a+3b)² = 169

Taking sqrt on both sides

=> 2a+3b = 13

Given the line of best fit for a set of data points with the equation y=5x-2.5, what is the residual for the point (3,6)?

Answers

Answer:   -6.5

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

Explanation:

For the x value x = 3, the observed y value is y = 6 which is from the point (3,6).

The predicted y value is found by plugging x = 3 into the line of best fit equation

y = 5x-2.5

y = 5(3)-2.5

y = 12.5

The residual is the difference between the two y values

e = residual

e = (observed y value) - (predicted y value)

e = 6 - 12.5

e = -6.5

The negative residual tells us the observed y value is smaller than the predicted y value for this given x value.

On a coordinate plane, a solid straight line has a positive slope and goes through (negative 4, 1) and (0, 3). Everything below and to the right of the line is shaded. Which linear inequality is represented by the graph? y ≤ 2x + 4 y ≤ one-halfx + 3 y ≥ One-halfx + 3 y ≥ 2x + 3

Answers

Answer: [tex]y \leq \frac{1}{2} x+3[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

If a function has a positive slope, that means the y value is increasing with respect to x. As you go down the x-axis, the y value will continuously increase.

First you want to plot the two sets of coords that they gave you, or else you wont know what the line looks like. Or, you could visually do it in your head. We're going down -4 on the x-axis and down 1 on the y-axis. Then for our second coords, we are going to 0 on the x-axis, then up 3 on the y-axis.

You could plot this for yourself, but im going to do it in my head for simplicity. We also need to find the slope of this function in order for us to find the y-intercept. The slope is change in y divided by the change in x. Subtract the initial position from the final position.

3 - 1 = 2

0 - (-4) = 4

2/4 = 1/2

The new equation is:

[tex]y=\frac{1}{2} x+b\\plugin(0,3)\\3=\frac{1}{2} (0)+b\\b=3[/tex]

Everything is shaded below and to the right of the line. They said the line was solid, so that means less than or equal to, [tex]\leq[/tex]

Which equation is parallel to the line y=2x+6 and passes through the point (8,1)?
y = 2x+6

y = 2x-15

y = 2x+10

y = -2x-7

Answers

The answer is y = 2x - 15

The equation of a line is y = mx +c

m = slope

c = y intercept

From this equation y=2x+6

m = 2

Since the lines are parallel their gradients are also the same

Equation of the line using point (8,1) is

y - 1 = 2(x-8)

y - 1 = 2x - 16

y = 2x - 15

Hope this helps

Answer: y=2x-15

Step-by-step explanation: Since the lines are parallel their slopes will be the same, so all you need to do is plug in (8,1) in the x and y values of the equation: y=2x+b. When you do this you get 1=2(8)+b. Simplify. The b value will be -15 which is the y-intercept so the answer is y=2x-15

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

piece 1: x

piece 2: x - 18

First you would subtract 2x - 18 = 108

Second you would add 108 + 18 = 2x

Third you would divide 126 divided by 2x = 63

So that would mean x = 63

Answer:

63cm

Step-by-step explanation:

2 pieces of rope, and one is shorter by 18cm.

piece 1: x

piece 2: x-18

Add the equations together, combine both pieces

2x-18

2x-18 = 108

108+18 = 2x
