There are 6720 ways by 8 distinguishable books be placed in 5 shelves.

According to statement

The number of books (n) is 8

The number of shelves (r) is 5

Now, we find the ways by which the 8 books be placed in 5 distinguishable shelves

From Permutation formula

P(n,r) = n! / (n-r)!

Substitute the values then

P(n,r) = 8! / (8-5)!

P(n,r) = (8*7*6*5*4*3*2*1) / (3*2*1)

P(n,r) = 8*7*6*5*4

P(n,r) = 6720

So, there are 6720 ways by 8 distinguishable books be placed in 5 shelves.

The archway of the main entrance of a university is modeled by the quadratic equation
Scilla [17]

Answer:

B. (1,5) and (5.25, 3.94)

Step-by-step explanation:

The answer is where the 2 equations intersect.

We need to solve the following system of equations:

y = -x^2 + 6x

4y = 21 - x

From the second equation:

x = 21 - 4y

Plug this into the first equation:

y = -(21 - 4y)^2 + 6(21 - 4y)

y = -(441 - 168y + 16y^2)+  126 - 24y

y = -441 + 168y - 16y^2 +  126 - 24y

16y^2 + y - 168y + 24y + 441 - 126 = 0

16y^2 - 143y + 315 = 0

y = [-(-143) +/- sqrt ((-143)^2 - 4 * 16 * 315)]/ (2*16)

y = 5, 3.938

When y = 5:

x = 21 - 4(5) = 1

When y = 3.938

x = 21 - 4(3.938) = 5.25.

Suppose that you are holding your toy submarine under the water. You release it and it begins to ascend. The graph models the de
Likurg_2 [28]

Answer:

Domain :  0 ≤ t ≤ 3

Range :   -4 ≤ d ≤ 0

Step-by-step explanation:

The graph attached models the depth of submarine as a function of time.

Points on x-axis represent the time and points on y-axis represent increase in height of the submarine.

Domain of a function is represented by the points on x-axis.

Therefore, Domain :  0 ≤ t ≤ 3

Range of function is represented by te points on y-axis.

Therefore, Range :   -4 ≤ d ≤ 0
