Answer: 362,800

Step-by-step explanation: To determine how many different batting orders are possible for a 9-player softball team, let's start by drawing 9 blanks to represent the 9 spots in the order.

We know that 9 different players can fill the first spot in the order. However, once the first spot is filled, there are only 8 players left to fill the second spot and once the second spot is filled, there are only 7 players left to fill the third spot and so on.

Therefore, based on the counting principal, we have 9 x 8 x 7 x 6 x 5 x 4 x 3 x 2 x 1 ways for all 9 spots to be filled which simplifies to 362,880.

Therefore, there are 362,880 different batting orders for a 9-player softball team.

vodka [1.7K]

Answer:

$\boxed{\text{18 blocks}}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Distance travelled on graph = AB + BC + CD + DA

AB = CD = (3 +2) = 5

BC = AD = 2 –(-2) = 4

Distance on graph = 2 × 5 + 2 × 4 = 10 + 8 = 18 spaces = 18 blocks

Bridgette jogs $\boxed{\textbf{18 blocks}}$ each day.

The line segment has an endpoint (5,-6) and the midpoint is (-2,3). Find the other point.

gavmur [86]

Answer:

(-9,12)

Step-by-step explanation:

$Endpoint\:= (5,-6) = x_1,y_1\\Midpoint = \: (-2,3)=x\:,y\\\\x = \frac{x_1+x_2}{2}\\\\ -2 = \frac{5+x_2}{2} \\-4 = 5+x_2\\-4-5=x_2\\-9 =x_2\\\\y = \frac{y_1+y_2}{2} \\\\3 = \frac{-6+y_2}{2} \\6 = -6+y_2\\6+(6)=y_2\\6+6=y_2\\12=y_2\\x_2 ,y_2=(-9,12)$
