The number of ways can this be done, if the order of the choices is relevant will be 24. And the number of ways can this be done if the order of the choices is not relevant will be 4.

<h3>What are permutation and combination?</h3>

A permutation is an act of arranging items or elements in the correct order. Combinations are a way of selecting items or pieces from a group of objects or sets when the order of the components is immaterial.

Suppose we want to choose 3 letters, without replacement, from the 4 letters A, B, C, and D.

The number of ways can this be done, if the order of the choices is relevant will be

⁴P₃ = 4! / (4 - 3)!

⁴P₃ = 4 x 3 x 2 x 1 / 1

⁴P₃ = 24

The number of ways can this be done if the order of the choices is not relevant will be

⁴C₃ = 4! / [(4 - 3)! x 3!]

⁴C₃ = (4 x 3!) / (3! x 1)

⁴C₃ = 4

More about the permutation and the combination link is given below.

A cactus casts a shadow 33 feet long. At the same time of day, Liam who is 6 feet tall, casts a shadow 9 feet long, as shown.
castortr0y [4]

Answer:

here's the solution :-

1.) =》the base of the larger triangle is the length of shadow formed by cactus .

so, length of cactus is : 33 feet.

2.) now, jn the smaller triangle formed by liam and it's shadow : -

=》

since both triangle form 90° the bases of both the larger and smaller triangles are parallel , so the base angles of larger triangle = corresponding base angles of the smaller triangle

hence, the both triangles are similar

( by A.A postulate )

now since the both triangles are similar, the the sides will be proportional ,

=》

\frac{9}{33}  =  \frac{6}{x}

=》

x =  \frac{6}{9}  \times 33

=》

x = 2 \times 11

=》

x = 22

so, length of the cactus = x = 22 feet

Alicia drew a pentagon with equal side lengths and equal angles. Then she added red lines of symmetry to her drawing. How many l
son4ous [18]
A pentagon is a regular polygon with five equal sides and five equal interior angles. Also, it has five vertices. To draw the line that would divide the figure equally into two, we simply have to draw a line from one vertex and then extend the line to the opposite side.

Since, there are five vertices then, she will be able to draw five.
