he choose assuming the order entry does not matter
Mathematics

In this item, we are informed that the order of the entries does not matter in determination the number of ways in which the Archie can choose for his party. Because the arrangement or order is not important, this type of problem uses the concept of COMBINATION.

The equation for combination is,
     nCr = n!/((n - r)!(r!))

nCr is read as "combination of n taken r".

Substituting the known values to the equation,
   15C6 = 15! / ((15 - 6)!(6!))
             = 5005

Hence, there are 5005 ways in which Archee can choose the 6 entrees for his party.

The general term for the sequence 2, 4, 8, 16, 32, . . . is
Nuetrik [128]

We are given

sequence is 2 , 4 , 8 ,16 , 32 , .....

Firstly , we will check whether it is geometric sequence

Checking geometric sequence:

We will find common ratio between successive terms

and then we check whether they are equal

r1=(second term)/(first term)

r_1=\frac{4}{2}=2

r2=(third term)/(second term)

r_2=\frac{8}{4}=2

r3=(fourth term)/(third term)

r_3=\frac{16}{8}=2

r4=(fifth term)/(fourth term)

r_4=\frac{32}{16}=2

we can see that all four ratios are same

r_1=r_2=r_3=r_4=2

so, this is geometric sequence

Calculation of general term:

We got

common ratio is

r=2

Let's assume

number of terms is n

first term is 2

a_1=2

now, we can use formula

a_n=a_1 (r)^{n-1}

we can plug values

and we get

a_n=2(2)^{n-1}

a_n=2^1(2)^{n-1}

a_n=(2)^{n-1+1}

a_n=(2)^{n}..................Answer

A machine stamps 360 metal parts in 15 minutes. Find the unit rate in parts per hour
Leviafan [203]
Just divide the number of parts made by the number of hours to get parts per hour.  15 minutes is 1/4 of an hour, so we divide 360 by 0.25 hours:

(\frac{360\ parts}{0.25\ hours}) = 1440\ parts\ per\ hour

A triangle has angles measuring 15° and 45°. What is the measurement of the triangle’s third angle?
nexus9112 [7]
First you need to know that the internal angles of a triangle always equals 180°. Therefore:

15+45= 90°

Then since the angles should equal 180, you do:

180-90=90

So the missing angle equals 90°
