A) The answer is 5.

nCr = n! / (r! (n - r)!)
n - number of things to be chosen from
r - number of chosen things

There are five seniors in a class: n = 5
<span>I choose one senior: r = 1
</span>
nCr = n! / (r! (n - r)!)
5C1 = 5! / (1! (5 - 1)!)
       = (5 * 4 * 3 * 2 * 1) / (1 * 4!)
       = 120 / (4 * 3 * 2 * 1)
       = 120 / 24
       = 5

b) The answer is 10.

nCr = n! / (r! (n - r)!)
n - number of things to be chosen from
r - number of chosen things

There are five seniors in a class: n = 5
I choose two seniors: r = 2

nCr = n! / (r! (n - r)!)
5C2 = 5! / (2! (5 - 2)!)
       = (5 * 4 * 3 * 2 * 1) / ((2 * 1) * 3!)
       = 120 / (2 * (3 * 2 * 1))
       = 120 / (2 * 6)
       = 120 / 12
       = 10


c) The answer is 10.

nCr = n! / (r! (n - r)!)
n - number of things to be chosen from
r - number of chosen things

There are five seniors in a class: n = 5
I choose three seniors: r = 3

nCr = n! / (r! (n - r)!)
5C3 = 5! / (3! (5 - 3)!)
       = (5 * 4 * 3 * 2 * 1) / ((3 * 2 * 1) * 2!)
       = 120 / (6 * (2 * 1))
       = 120 / (6 * 2)
       = 120 / 12
       = 10


d) The answer is 5.

nCr = n! / (r! (n - r)!)
n - number of things to be chosen from
r - number of chosen things

There are five seniors in a class: n = 5
I choose four seniors: r = 4

nCr = n! / (r! (n - r)!)
5C4 = 5! / (4! (5 - 4)!)
       = (5 * 4 * 3 * 2 * 1) / ((4 * 3 * 2 * 1) * 1!)
       = 120 / (24 * 1)
       = 120 / 24
       = 5


e) The answer is 1.

nCr = n! / (r! (n - r)!)
n - number of things to be chosen from
r - number of chosen things

There are five seniors in a class: n = 5
I choose five seniors: r = 5

nCr = n! / (r! (n - r)!)
5C5 = 5! / (5! (5 - 5)!)
       = (5 * 4 * 3 * 2 * 1) / ((5 * 4 * 3 * 2 * 1) * 1!)
       = 120 / (120 * 1)
       = 120 / 120
       = 1

Inside a toy truck, there is a gear that rotates to (3, −8) when the steering wheel is turned to the left. What is the sine valu
Marianna [84]
This is the the concept of trigonometry, to get the sine value of the the function given we shall proceed as follows;
Using Pythagorean theorem, the hypotenuse of the triangle will be found as follows;
The side length will be 8 units since the y-coordinate is -8
The side width will be 3 units since the x- coordinate is 3  
c^2=a^2+b^2
c^2=(3)^2+(-8)^2
c^2=9+64
c^2=73
c=sqrt(73)

Therefore the sine value will be:
sin x=3/sqrt(73)
multiply both numerator and denominator by sqrt(73) we get:
sin x=(3√73)/73

Therefore the answer is A]
