If the 10 books are all different, we have:

• 10 ways of selecting the first book,

,

• 9 ways of selecting the second book,

,

• 8 ways of selecting the third book,

,

• 7 ways of selecting the fourth book.

The total number of ways to arrange 4 of the 10 books is:

$10\cdot9\cdot8\cdot7=5040.$

Answer

There are 5040 ways of arranging the books.

Which measurements for the capacity of the ice cream carton?

nalin [4]

Answer:

1 cup
1 gallon

Step-by-step explanation:

In retail grocery stores in the US, you can find ice cream packaged in sizes of 1 cup (half pint), 1 pint, 1 quart, 1/2 gallon, 1 gallon, and perhaps some odd sizes in between. For commercial purposes, ice cream may be packaged in tubs of 3- or 5-gallons or more.

1 teaspoon would be an unusually small size, and 1 mL is about 1/5 of a teaspoon. These quantities are somewhat smaller than would be considered a "serving" of ice cream, so would generally be of little practical use.

Kelly uses a building block to create the top of a tower. The front face of the building block is shown.

max2010maxim [7]

What you need to do is do the formula of Area=1/2×Height (Base B +Base A) Base B is bottom Base A is the top then you divide by 2 In this case 1/2 ×8/1 ×(12+15)=108

8) Find the endpoint Cif M is the midpoint of segment CD and M (2, 4) and D (5,7)

Elenna [48]

Answer:

8. c. (-1, -1)

9. a. (-6, -1)

b. True

Step-by-step Explanation:

8. Given the midpoint M(2, 4), and one endpoint D(5, 7) of segment CD, the coordinate pair of the other endpoint C, can be calculated as follows:

let $D(5, 7) = (x_2, y_2)$

$C(?, ?) = (x_1, y_1)$

$M(2, 4) = (\frac{x_1 + 5}{2}, \frac{y_1 + 7}{2})$

Rewrite the equation to find the coordinates of C

$2 = \frac{x_1 + 5}{2}$ and $4 = \frac{y_1 + 7}{2}$

Solve for each:

$2 = \frac{x_1 + 5}{2}$

$2*2 = \frac{x_1 + 5}{2}*2$

$4 = x_1 + 5$

$4 - 5 = x_1 + 5 - 5$

$-1 = x_1$

$x_1 = -1$

$4 = \frac{y_1 + 7}{2}$

$4*2 = \frac{y_1 + 7}{2}*2$

$8 = y_1 + 7$

$8 - 7 = y_1 + 7 - 7$

$1 = y_1$

$y_1 = 1$

Coordinates of endpoint C is (-1, 1)

9. a.Given segment AB, with midpoint M(-4, -5), and endpoint A(-2, -9), find endpoint B as follows:

let $A(-2, -9) = (x_2, y_2)$

$B(?, ?) = (x_1, y_1)$

$M(-4, -5) = (\frac{x_1 + (-2)}{2}, \frac{y_1 + (-9)}{2})$

$-4 = \frac{x_1 - 2}{2}$ and $-5 = \frac{y_1 - 9}{2}$

Solve for each:

$-4 = \frac{x_1 - 2}{2}$

$-4*2 = \frac{x_1 - 2}{2}*2$

$-8 = x_1 - 2$

$-8 + 2 = x_1 - 2 + 2$

$-6 = x_1$

$x_1 = -6$

$-5 = \frac{y_1 - 9}{2}$

$-5*2 = \frac{y_1 - 9}{2}*2$

$-10 = y_1 - 9$

$-10 + 9 = y_1 - 9 + 9$

$-1 = y_1$

$y_1 = -1$

Coordinates of endpoint B is (-6, -1)

b. The midpoint of a segment, is the middle of the segment. It divides the segment into two equal parts. The answer is TRUE.
