How many ways can 12 swimmers finish in first, second, and third place

1 answer:

7 0

1320 ways
This can be solved using something called permutation. There are 12 possible swimmers that can be in first place. After that, 11 swimmers left to be in second place. Finally there are 10 swimmers left for third place. Multiply these together you get 12•11•10=1320. Hope this helps!!

Write an equation in standard form of the line that passes through (3, 1) and has a y intercept of -2

aleksandr82 [10.1K]

Step-by-step explanation:

First of all, use substitution to find slope

(1) = m(3) - 2

3 = m3

m = 1

With both the slope and y int, you can write it in y int form

y = 1x - 2

Convert that to standard form

-x + y = -2
