Dimas [21]1 year ago
6 0

Answer:

120

Step-by-step explanation:

• we need to find the number of the possible orderings

of this five students.

•• which we can simulate to a permutation

of 5 objects.

••• and we know that The number of permutations

of 5 distinct objects is 5!.

5! = 5×4×3×2×1 = 120

there are six permutations of the set {1, 2, 3}, namely (1, 2, 3), (1, 3, 2), (2, 1, 3), (2, 3, 1), (3, 1, 2), and (3, 2, 1). These are all the possible orderings of this three-element set.

The number of permutations of n distinct objects is n factorial, usually written as n!, which means the product of all positive integers less than or equal to n.

The two lines below intersect as shown what the value of x (2x+29) (9x-13)
tensa zangetsu [6.8K]

Given:

Two lines intersect each other.

Consider the below figure attached with this question.

To find:

The value of x.

Solution:

If two lines intersect each other then the vertically opposite angles are congruent and their measures are equal.

In the given figure, the measures of two vertically opposite angles are (2x+29)° and (9x-13)°.

2x+29=9x-13

2x-9x=-29-13

-7x=-42

Divide both sides by -7.

x=\dfrac{-42}{-7}

x=6

Therefore, the value of x is 6.
