Answer:

number of ways = 720

Step-by-step explanation:

The number of ways six people sit in a six-passenger car is given by the number of permutations of 6 elements in 6 different positions ( seats), then

number of ways = number of permutations of 6 elements = 6! = 6 * 5 * 4 *3 * 2 * 1 = 720

Since the first person that sits can be on any of the seats , but then the second person that sits can choose any of 5 seats (since the first person had already occupied one) , the third can choose 4 ... and so on.

Answer:

a=21

AB=23.9

BC=19.5

CD=(23.9)

AD=19.5

Step-by-step explanation:

Each pair of parallel sides are equal in a parallelogram. Sense both pairs use the same variable we can just choose the easiest to solve which would be:

a-1.5=19.5

add 1.5 to both sides

a=21

now substitute 21 in for a in each equation.

AB=CD so

AB=23.9

BC=AD so

BC=19.5

CD=(21)+2.9 so

CD=(23.9)

AD is given so

AD=19.5

A machine covers 5/8 square foot in 1/4 hour

VLD [36.1K]

The question is incomplete. Here is the complete question:

A machine covers 5/8 square foot in 1/4 hour. what is the unit rate?

Answer:

2.5 square feet per hour

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Area covered by a machine = $frac{5}{8}\ ft^2$

Time taken to cover the given area = $\frac{1}{4}\ h$

Now, unit rate of the first quantity with respect to second quantity is the magnitude of the first quantity being when the second quantity is one unit.

Here, the first quantity is the area covered and the second quantity is the time taken.

So, unit rate is the area covered by the machine in 1 hour.

In order to find that, we use the unitary method and divide the area by the total time taken. Therefore,

$Unit\ rate=\frac{Total\ area\ covered}{Total\ time\ taken}\\\\Unit\ rate=(\frac{5}{8}\ ft^2)\div (\frac{1}{4}\ h)\\\\Unit\ rate=\frac{5}{8}\times \frac{4}{1}\ ft^2/h\\\\Unit\ rate=\frac{20}{8}=2.5\ ft^2/h$

Thus, the unit rate is 2.5 square feet per hour.

Determine the level of measurement of the variable. an officer's rank in the military Group of answer choices

ElenaW [278]

Answer:

Ordinal

Step-by-step explanation:

Level of measurement used in statistics summarizes what statistical analysis that is possible. There exist three types of level of measurement. The nominal, ordinal and Interval/Ratio level of measurement. Here, our primary focus will be the Ordinal level of measurement.

Ordinal level of measurement indicates the position in a sequence. In the military sector, the officer's rank is said to be Ordinal. This implies that the ordinal level of measurement categorizes variables according to hierarchy or ranks with a meaningful order. Still, the intervals and differences between the variables may not be equal.

Anestetic [448]

Answer:

From least likely to most likely:

Colorado Bronze wins

I Am Pat wins

Good Legs Lance wins

Step-by-step explanation:

Converting all probabilities to the same type may be easier to visualize and see the chances. Let's convert each chance to percentage:

P(I Am Pat wins) = 3/10 = 30%

P(Good Legs Lance wins) = 0.6 = 60%

P(Colorado Bronze wins) = 10%= 10%

Thus, the desired order is:

Colorado Bronze wins

I Am Pat wins

Good Legs Lance wins
