Answer:

40\ bottle\ caps

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

The scale is \frac{2.4}{1}\ \frac{cm}{ft}

That means

2.4 cm in the model represent 1 foot in the real

In this problem

The restaurant is 20 feet tall

Find the height of the model

Multiply the actual height of the restaurant by the scale 2.4

20\ ft=20(2.4)=48\ cm

A bottle cap is 1.2 cm tall

To find out the number of bottle caps divide the height of the model by 1.2

\frac{48}{1.2}= 40\ bottle\ caps

A physics exam consists of 9 multiple-choice questions and 6 open-ended problems in which all work must be shown. If an examinee
IrinaVladis [17]

Answer:

720 ways

Step-by-step explanation:

Generally, combination is expressed as;

                                  ^{n} C_{r} = \frac{n!}{r!(n-r)!}

The question consists of 9 multiple-choice questions and examinee must answer 7 of the multiple-choice questions.

                                   ⇒ ⁹C₇ =\frac{9!}{7!(9-7)!}

                                        =\frac{9!}{7!(2)!}

                                        = 36

The question consists of 6 open-ended problems and examinee must answer 3 of the open-ended problems.

                                    ⇒ ⁶C₃ =\frac{6!}{3!(6-3)!}

                                         =\frac{6!}{3!(3)!}

                                         = 20

Combining the two combinations to determine the number of ways the questions and problems be chosen if an examinee must answer 7 of the multiple-choice questions and 3 of the open-ended problem.

                                        ⁹C₇ × ⁶C₃

                                       = 36 × 20

                                       = 720 ways
