Answer: 336

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : The total number of runners = 8

The number of positions = 3

Since for awarding prize, the order of winners matters.

So by permutations ,the number of possible ways to award 3 prizes will be

^8P_3=\dfrac{8!}{(8-3)!}=8\times7\times6=336

Therefore , the total number of ways by which runners finish in first, second, and third place is 336.

Calcular x en: los datos q faltan
Taya2010 [7]
Answer:

x = 13

Step-by-step explanation:

No se exactamente como decir esto porque yo ayudo la majoria de los usuario en ingles pero hay que usar un método para describir a x

Un método que se llama Pythagorean theorem

Pythagorean theorem: a^2 + b^2 = c^2 donde a^2 = 5 b^2 = 12 y c^2 = x

Entonces…

5^2 + 12^2 = c^2

Nota: podemos ver que esto esta bien porque el sum de los dos lados suma el mas largo.

Ahora

25 + 144 = c^2

c^2 = 169

Pero eso no puede ser la respuesta porque no tiene sentido a que x sea un lado que mide 169 entonces tenemos que usar sqrt rt

sqrt rt de 169 = 13

x = 13
