Using the arrangements formula, the number of distinct seating arrangements is:

1287.

<h3>What is the arrangements formula?</h3>

The number of possible arrangements of n elements is given by the factorial of the number n, that is:

A_n = n!

When elements are divided and classified with repetition, the number of arrangements is given as follows:

A_n^{n_1, n_2, \cdots, n_n} = \frac{n!}{n_1!n_2! \cdots n_n}

In the context of this problem, the parameters are given as follows:

  • n = 13, as there are 13 students in the class.
  • n_1 = 8, as 8 of the students are wearing all blue.
  • n_2 = 5, as 5 of the students are wearing all red.

Hence the number of distinct seating arrangements is calculated as follows:

A_{13}^{8,5} = \frac{13!}{5!8!} = 1287

A, B &amp; C form a triangle where
andrew-mc [135]

Answer:

16.5mm to. 1 decimal place

Step-by-step explanation:

Please check attachment for diagrammatic representation of the triangle.

Since one of the angles of the triangle is 90, this means that we are dealing with a right angled triangle

To find the length of AC, we make use of pythagoras’ theorem which states that the square of the hypotenuse equals the sum of the square of the other two sides. The hypotenuse is the longest side of the triangle which we have as 17.88 mm

Mathematically therefore

17.8^2 = 6.6^2 + AC^2

AC^2 = 17.8^2 - 6.6^2

AC^2 = 283.28

AC = √(273.28)

AC = 16.53 mm

This is 16.5 to 1 decimal place

Only one question .Who knows about this plz "Find the measures indicated. round to the nearest tenth".​
Elan Coil [88]

So the total value of a triangle is 180°

So when u calculate the missing angle its value is 42°

180°-(60°+78°) = 42°

Answer:

0 to 900

Step-by-step explanation:

The three ordered pairs, (0, 250), (5, 575), and (10, 900) for the equation,

y = 65x + 250

imply that the y-axis should range from 0 to 900. The y-values from the ordered pairs are; 250, 575 and 900

On a Saturday the ratio of the amount of water used by Household A to the amount of water used by Household B was 13:5.Household
Reptile [31]
Use a proportion.

Let A = water used in household A.
Let B = water used in household B.

A to B = 13 to 5

A = 260 gal

260 to B = 13 to 5

260/B = 13/5

13B = 5 * 260

B = 100

A + B = 260 + 100 = 360

The total is 360 gallons.
