Answer:

462 ways

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula to use in solving this problem is given as the Combination formula

The Combination formula is given as

C(n , r) = nCr = n!/r! (n - r)!

We are told that a food bakery has 12 pies unsold at the end of the day which they intend to share to 6 food banks

n = 12, r = 6

In order to ensure that at least 1 food bank gets 1 pie, we have:

n - 1 = 12 - 1 = 11

r - 1 = 6 - 1 = 5

Hence,

C(11, 5) = 11C5

= 11!/ 5! ×(11 - 5)!

= 11!/5! × 6!

= (11 × 10 × 9 × 8 × 7 × 6 × 5 × 4 × 3 × 2 × 1)/ (5 × 4 × 3 × 2 × 1) ×( 6 × 5 × 4 × 3 × 2 × 1)

= 462 ways

What is the standard form polynomial representing the volume of this shipping container?
harina [27]

Answer:

Volume = (24x⁵ + 78x⁴ - 147x³ - 624x² - 360x)

Step-by-step explanation:

Container given in the picture is in the shape of a cuboid.

And volume of a cuboid is measured by the expression,

Volume of a cuboid = Length × width × height

Now substitute the measure of the container's dimensions given in the picture

Volume = (4x² + 3x)(x²- 8)(6x + 15)

             = [(4x² + 3x)(x²- 8)](6x + 15)

             = [4x²(x² - 8) + 3x(x² - 8)](6x + 15)

             = (4x⁴ - 32x² + 3x³ - 24x)(6x + 15)

             = (4x⁴ + 3x³ - 32x² - 24x)(6x + 15)

             = 6x(4x⁴ + 3x³ - 32x² - 24x) + 15(4x⁴ + 3x³ - 32x² - 24x)

             = 24x⁵+ 18x⁴ - 192x³ - 144x² + 60x⁴ + 45x³ - 480x² - 360x

             = 24x⁵ + 78x⁴ - 147x³ - 624x² - 360x

WHATS THE AREA OF THE TRAPIZOID?!
Helen [10]

Answer: 45.. i think.

Step-by-step explanation: I couldn't really get the measurements from this photo so here is what I got. I used the formula A=a+b over 2 times h. I used 7=a, b=11,h=5. I added 7 and 11 to get 18, then divide that by 2, which equals 9. Then 9 times 5 = 45. I hope this somewhat helps.

Answer:

Acceleration equals zero because of constant velocity

f - fr = ma \\ 70 \cos(30)  - fr = 0 \\ 70 \cos(30)  = fr \\  fr \: = 60.62

coefficient

Fr = coefficient × r

60.62= ce ×100

0.60 = coefficient

A box contains 5 red balls, 6 white balls and 9 black balls. Two balls are drawn at
valina [46]

Answer:

P(Same)=\frac{61}{190}

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Red = 5

White = 6

Black = 9

Required

The probability of selecting 2 same colors when the first is not replaced

The total number of ball is:

Total = 5 + 6 + 9

Total = 20

This is calculated as:

P(Same)=P(Red\ and\ Red) + P(White\ and\ White) + P(Black\ and\ Black)

So, we have:

P(Same)=\frac{n(Red)}{Total} * \frac{n(Red) - 1}{Total - 1} + \frac{n(White)}{Total} * \frac{n(White) - 1}{Total - 1}  + \frac{n(Black)}{Total} * \frac{n(Black) - 1}{Total - 1}

<em>Note that: 1 is subtracted because it is a probability without replacement</em>

P(Same)=\frac{5}{20} * \frac{5 - 1}{20- 1} + \frac{6}{20} * \frac{6 - 1}{20- 1}  + \frac{9}{20} * \frac{9- 1}{20- 1}

P(Same)=\frac{5}{20} * \frac{4}{19} + \frac{6}{20} * \frac{5}{19}  + \frac{9}{20} * \frac{8}{19}

P(Same)=\frac{20}{380} + \frac{30}{380}  + \frac{72}{380}

P(Same)=\frac{20+30+72}{380}

P(Same)=\frac{122}{380}

P(Same)=\frac{61}{190}
