The equation represents an ellipse. which points are the vertices of the ellipse? (7, 1) and (7, −5) (7, −10) and (7, 6) (10, −2

OleMash [197]

The points which represents the vertices of the given equation are; (15, −2) and (−1, −2).

<h3>Which points among the answer choices represents the vertices of the ellipse whose equation is given?</h3>

The complete question gives the equation of the ellipse as; (x-7)²/64+(y+2)²/9=1.

Since, It follows from convention that general equation of ellipse with centre as (h, k) takes the form;

(x-h)²/a² +(y-k)²/b² = 1.

Consequently, it follows from observation that the value of a and b in the given equation in the task content is; √64 = 8 and √9 = 3 respectively.

Since, 8 > 3, The vertices of the ellipse are given by; (h±a, k).

The vertices in this scenario are therefore;

(7+8, -2) and (7-8, -2).

= (15, -2) and (-1, -2).

7) PG & E have 12 linemen working Tuesdays in Placer County. They work in groups of 8. How many

BabaBlast [244]

Part A

Since order matters, we use the nPr permutation formula

We use n = 12 and r = 8

$_{n}P_{r} = \frac{n!}{(n-r)!}\\\\_{12}P_{8} = \frac{12!}{(12-8)!}\\\\_{12}P_{8} = \frac{12!}{4!}\\\\_{12}P_{8} = \frac{12*11*10*9*8*7*6*5*4*3*2*1}{4*3*2*1}\\\\_{12}P_{8} = \frac{479,001,600}{24}\\\\_{12}P_{8} = 19,958,400\\\\$

There are a little under 20 million different permutations.

<h3>Answer: 19,958,400</h3>

Side note: your teacher may not want you to type in the commas

============================================================

Part B

In this case, order doesn't matter. We could use the nCr combination formula like so.

$_{n}C_{r} = \frac{n!}{r!(n-r)!}\\\\_{12}C_{8} = \frac{12!}{8!(12-8)!}\\\\_{12}C_{8} = \frac{12!}{4!}\\\\_{12}C_{8} = \frac{12*11*10*9*8!}{8!*4!}\\\\_{12}C_{8} = \frac{12*11*10*9}{4!} \ \text{ ... pair of 8! terms cancel}\\\\_{12}C_{8} = \frac{12*11*10*9}{4*3*2*1}\\\\_{12}C_{8} = \frac{11880}{24}\\\\_{12}C_{8} = 495\\\\$

We have a much smaller number compared to last time because order isn't important. Consider a group of 3 people {A,B,C} and this group is identical to {C,B,A}. This idea applies to groups of any number.

-----------------

Another way we can compute the answer is to use the result from part A.

Recall that:

nCr = (nPr)/(r!)

If we know the permutation value, we simply divide by r! to get the combination value. In this case, we divide by r! = 8! = 8*7*6*5*4*3*2*1 = 40,320

So,

$_{n}C_{r} = \frac{_{n}P_{r}}{r!}\\\\_{12}C_{8} = \frac{_{12}P_{8}}{8!}\\\\_{12}C_{8} = \frac{19,958,400}{40,320}\\\\_{12}C_{8} = 495\\\\$

Not only is this shortcut fairly handy, but it's also interesting to see how the concepts of combinations and permutations connect to one another.
