Permutations/508054: if six numbers are picked from 1 to 45 and if a number is not repeated.How many sets of six numbers could be picked 1 solutions Answer 340848 by jim_thompson5910(28595)   on 2011-10-02 17:18:33 (Show Source): You can put this solution on YOUR website! I'm assuming order does not matter. C(n, r) = (n!)/(r!(n-r)!) C(45, 6) = (45!)/(6!*(45-6)!) C(45, 6) = (45!)/(6!*39!) C(45, 6) = (45*44*43*42*41*40*39!)/(6!*39!) C(45, 6) = (45*44*43*42*41*40)/(6!) C(45, 6) = (45*44*43*42*41*40)/(6*5*4*3*2*1) C(45, 6) = (5864443200)/(720) C(45, 6) = 8145060 So there are 8145060 different ways.

The horizontal distance that it spans is 30 ft longer than the height that it reaches on the side of the bridge. Find the horizontal and vertical distances spanned by this brace. Calling all math genius please help me! 1 solutions Answer 340696 by jim_thompson5910(28595)   on 2011-10-02 00:05:27 (Show Source): You can put this solution on YOUR website! Let x = height, so x+30 is the horizontal distance So use the pythagorean theorem to find the height a^2 + b^2 = c^2 x^2 + (x+30)^2 = 150^2 x^2 + x^2+60x+900 = 22500 x^2 + x^2+60x+900 - 22500 = 0 2x^2+60x-21600 = 0 2(x^2+30x-10800) = 0 x^2+30x-10800 = 0 Now use the quadratic formula to solve for x x = (-B +- sqrt( B^2-4AC ))/(2A) x = (-(30) +- sqrt( (30)^2-4(1)(-10800) ))/(2(1)) x = (-30 +- sqrt( 900+43200 ))/(2(1)) x = (-30 +- sqrt( 44100 ))/(2(1)) x = (-30 +- 210)/(2) x = (-30 + 210)/(2) or x = (-30 - 210)/(2) x = (180)/(2) or x = (-240)/(2) x = 90 or x = -120 Now throw out the negative solution to get the only solution of x = 90 So the height is 90 ft and the horizontal distance is 120 ft (since 90+30 = 120) Let me know if you need more help or if you need me to explain a step in more detail.

Permutations/507701: how many ways are there to choose 3 separate officeholder positions (pres,vp etc) from a group of 12 people? at first i tried 12*11*10=1320 i tried this formula 12!/3!(12-3)!= 220 But then i was told it was just 12! just want a conformation, thank you ahead of time 1 solutions Answer 340695 by jim_thompson5910(28595)   on 2011-10-01 23:56:34 (Show Source): You can put this solution on YOUR website! Since order matters, you'll use the permutation formula P(n,r) = n!/(n-r)! In this case, n = 12 and r = 3 P(n,r) = n!/(n-r)! P(12,3) = (12!)/((12-3)!) P(12,3) = (12!)/(9!) P(12,3) = (12*11*10*9!)/(9!) P(12,3) = 12*11*10 P(12,3) = 1320 So there are 1320 different ways to choose 3 separate officeholder positions.

Polynomials-and-rational-expressions/507702: 6. Completely factor the following expression: 36a^2 – 84ab + 49b^2 7. Completely factor the following expression: 9y^2 – 16z^2 I do not understand please help me!I am desperate!! 1 solutions Answer 340693 by jim_thompson5910(28595)   on 2011-10-01 23:50:51 (Show Source): You can put this solution on YOUR website! # 6 Looking at the expression , we can see that the first coefficient is , the second coefficient is , and the last coefficient is . Now multiply the first coefficient by the last coefficient to get . Now the question is: what two whole numbers multiply to (the previous product) and add to the second coefficient ? To find these two numbers, we need to list all of the factors of (the previous product). Factors of : 1,2,3,4,6,7,9,12,14,18,21,28,36,42,49,63,84,98,126,147,196,252,294,441,588,882,1764 -1,-2,-3,-4,-6,-7,-9,-12,-14,-18,-21,-28,-36,-42,-49,-63,-84,-98,-126,-147,-196,-252,-294,-441,-588,-882,-1764 Note: list the negative of each factor. This will allow us to find all possible combinations. These factors pair up and multiply to . 1*1764 = 1764 2*882 = 1764 3*588 = 1764 4*441 = 1764 6*294 = 1764 7*252 = 1764 9*196 = 1764 12*147 = 1764 14*126 = 1764 18*98 = 1764 21*84 = 1764 28*63 = 1764 36*49 = 1764 42*42 = 1764 (-1)*(-1764) = 1764 (-2)*(-882) = 1764 (-3)*(-588) = 1764 (-4)*(-441) = 1764 (-6)*(-294) = 1764 (-7)*(-252) = 1764 (-9)*(-196) = 1764 (-12)*(-147) = 1764 (-14)*(-126) = 1764 (-18)*(-98) = 1764 (-21)*(-84) = 1764 (-28)*(-63) = 1764 (-36)*(-49) = 1764 (-42)*(-42) = 1764 Now let's add up each pair of factors to see if one pair adds to the middle coefficient : First Number Second Number Sum 1 1764 1+1764=1765 2 882 2+882=884 3 588 3+588=591 4 441 4+441=445 6 294 6+294=300 7 252 7+252=259 9 196 9+196=205 12 147 12+147=159 14 126 14+126=140 18 98 18+98=116 21 84 21+84=105 28 63 28+63=91 36 49 36+49=85 42 42 42+42=84 -1 -1764 -1+(-1764)=-1765 -2 -882 -2+(-882)=-884 -3 -588 -3+(-588)=-591 -4 -441 -4+(-441)=-445 -6 -294 -6+(-294)=-300 -7 -252 -7+(-252)=-259 -9 -196 -9+(-196)=-205 -12 -147 -12+(-147)=-159 -14 -126 -14+(-126)=-140 -18 -98 -18+(-98)=-116 -21 -84 -21+(-84)=-105 -28 -63 -28+(-63)=-91 -36 -49 -36+(-49)=-85 -42 -42 -42+(-42)=-84 From the table, we can see that the two numbers and add to (the middle coefficient).

Polynomials-and-rational-expressions/507705: 8. The length of a rectangle is 3 meters more than its width. If the area is 108 square meters, what are the length and width? OK I definetly need some help with these, please! 1 solutions Answer 340691 by jim_thompson5910(28595)   on 2011-10-01 23:45:05 (Show Source): You can put this solution on YOUR website! Let x = width, so length is then x+3 Area = Length*Width A = LW 108 = (x+3)*x 108 = x(x+3) 108 = x^2+3x 0 = x^2+3x-108 0 = (x-9)(x+12) (x-9)(x+12)=0 x-9 = 0 or x+12 = 0 x=9 or x=-12 Throw out the negative width to get x = 9 So the width is 9 meters and the length is 12 meters (since 9+3=12) Let me know if you need more help or if you need me to explain a step in more detail.
