Is choosing 5 players to represent the team at a fundraiser a permutation or a combination?

1 answer:

3 0

A permutation, since once you choose one member to be in the team, that same person cannot be chosen again. A combination requires us to be able to freely choose the same item in a set as many times as we may wish. A permutation restricts the amount of times we can choose an item in a set.

Answer:

2 feets

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that :

Alli's Initial depth = 6 feets

Number of feets in which Alli rose = 4 feets

Alli's new position relative to the surface of the pool:

Difference of Alli's initial depth and feets risen :

6 feets - 4 feets = 2 feets

A van and a truck both drove from Town A to Town B. The distance

Gala2k [10]

First we need to find out the time it took for the truck to reach town B.

$Speed= \frac{Distance}{Time}$

$40= \frac{200}{T}$
$T=5hours$

Now, because the van left 1.5 hours earlier and reached the destination 2.5 hours before, it took 1 hour less the the truck to arrive.

$5hours-1hour=4hours$ which is the time it took for the van to arrive.

Now we use the speed equation again to work out speed.

$Speed= \frac{200}{4}$

$Speed=50mph$ = speed of van

Hope this helped :)
