The newly elected president needs to decide the remaining 8 spots available in the cabinet he/she is appointing. If there are 14
Elanso [62]

Answer:

The members of the cabinet can be appointed in 121,080,960 different ways.

Step-by-step explanation:

The rank is important(matters), which means that the order in which the candidates are chosen is important. That is, if we exchange the position of two candidates, it is a new outcome. So we use the permutations formula to solve this quesiton.

Permutations formula:

The number of possible permutations of x elements from a set of n elements is given by the following formula:

P_{(n,x)} = \frac{n!}{(n-x)!}

If there are 14 eligible candidates for these positions (where rank matters), how many different ways can the members of the cabinet be appointed?

Permutations of 8 from a set of 14. So

P_{(14,8)} = \frac{14!}{(14-8)!} = 121,080,960

The members of the cabinet can be appointed in 121,080,960 different ways.

Given g(x) = −3x + 4
Goshia [24]

Answer:

The average rate of change of <em>g</em> from <em>x</em> = <em>a</em> to<em> x</em> = <em>a</em> + <em>h</em> is -3.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the function:

g(x) = -3x + 4

And we want to determine its average rate of change of the function for <em>x</em> = <em>a</em> and <em>x</em> = <em>a</em> + <em>h</em>.

To determine the average rate of change, we find the slope of the function between the two points. In other words:

\displaystyle \text{Avg} = \frac{g(a + h) - g(a) }{(a + h ) - a}

Simplify:

\displaystyle \begin{aligned}  \text{Avg} &= \frac{g(a + h) - g(a) }{(a + h ) - a} \\ \\ &=\frac{(-3(a+h) + 4) - (-3a+4)}{h} \\ \\ &= \frac{(-3a -3h + 4) + (3a - 4) }{h} \\ \\ &= \frac{-3h}{h} \\ \\ &= -3\end{aligned}

In conclusion, the average rate of change of <em>g</em> from <em>x</em> = <em>a</em> to <em>x</em> = <em>a</em> + <em>h</em> is -3.

This is the expected result, as function <em>g</em> is linear, so its rate of change would be constant.

Answer:

  • A: 37/41

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>We can observe that:</u>

  • The difference of the second and third numbers is equal to 17
  • The difference of the first and fourth numbers is equal to 13

<u>Therefore the missing pair will be:</u>

  • 20+17 = 37 and 28 + 13 = 41

Correct choice is A
