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.

If you transform x 2 + y 2 = 25 into 4x 2 + 4y 2 = 25, which option below describes the effect of this transformation on the rad

FromTheMoon [43]

Answer

c. It divides the radius by 2.

Explanation

The general equation of a circle is

(x-h)² + (y-k)² = r²

Where (h, k) makes the coordinates of the circle and r the radius.

x² + y² = 25 For this equation,

center (0, 0)

Radius = √25 = 5

4x² + 4y² = 25 First simplify this equation

4x² + 4y² = 25 ⇒ x² + y² = 25/4

center (0, 0)

Radius = √(25/4) = 5/2

The radius has been divided by 2

The sum of two confescutive integers is at least 46. What is the least possibly pair of integers?

dezoksy [38]

An integer is a whole number. Sum means to add and since they are consecutive, there is only a difference of 1 between them.

1) 21 + 23: not consecutive
2) 23+24= 47: has to be at least 46
3) 22+23= 45: has to be at least 46
4) 24+25= 49: has to be at least 46

So we have two possibilities: either #2 or #4. Find least possible pair of integers.

x= first integer
x+1= second integer

x + (x+1) >= 46
2x + 1 >=46
2x>=45
x>=22.5

Answer:
The first integer has to be greater than or equal to 22.5. Since integers are whole numbers, round up to the next whole number. The least possible integers are #2) 23 and 24.

Hope this helps! :)
