The committee can be selected by combinatorial argument  in

\sum ^{n}_{k=1} k(^n_k). ways.

A counting-based argument is known as a combinatorial argument or combinatorial proof. This line of reasoning has previously been used, for instance in the section on Stirling numbers of the second sort.

By initially selecting k individuals from our group of n, we can then choose one of those k individuals to serve as the committee's chairperson.

A number of methods for completing the first task, k methods for completing the second task, and so on. ways to create a k-member committee with a chairperson.

\sum ^{n}_{k=1} k(^n_k). is the number of methods to construct a committee with a chairman of size less than or equal to n can be found by adding up over 1≤k≤n.

A committee of size less than or equal to n can also be formed with a chairperson by selecting the chairperson first, followed by the members of the committee. The chairperson can be chosen from among n options. The picker has two options for the remaining n-1 individuals: to include them or not. We therefore have n options for the chairperson, 2 options for the following, 2 options for the following, etc. These can be multiplied together to give us n2^{n-1}, which is a proof of the identity.

How many times does the quadratic function below intersect the x-axis? y=x+10x+25
krok68 [10]

Answer:

It touches the x-axis once, but does not intersect it

Step-by-step explanation:

I'm assuming it's supposed to be y = x² + 10x + 25.  This equation does not intersect the x-axis, but it does touch the x-axis.  

Solve the equation for x...

0 = x² + 10x + 25

factor...

0 = (x + 5)(x + 5)

The solution repeats, this means that the function touches the x-axis and then bounces off, but doesn't intersect it.  Intersect meant to cross the line, here it just touches it.

See the attached photo to see the graph...
