Answer:

They can be seated in 120 differents ways.

Step-by-step explanation:

Taking into account that there are 3 couples and every couple has an specific way to sit, for simplify the exercise, every couple is going to act like 1 option and it's going to occupy 1 Place. If this happens we just need to organize 5 options (3 couples and 2 singles) in 5 Places (3 for a couple and 2 for the singles)

It means that now there are just 5 Places in the row and 5 options to organized. So the number of ways can be calculated using a rule of multiplication as:

<u>      5         </u>*<u>        4          </u>* <u>       3           </u> *  <u>        2     </u>  * <u>         1         </u> = 120

 1st place    2nd Place    3rd place        4th Place    5th Place

Because we have 5 options for the 1st Place, the three couples and the 2 singles. Then, 4 options for the second Place, 3 options for the third place, 2 for the fourth place and 1 option for the 5th place.

Finally, they can be seated in 120 differents ways.

Zach invested $1500. He earned 23.2% on his investment. Determine how much money he has now.
Alika [10]
To figure out 23.2%, first figure out how much 1% is by dividing 1500 divided by 100=15

Next, multiply the 15(1%) by the 23.2% to figure out how much that is.
23.2 x 15 = 348

Now, you have to add thr investment ($348) to his originsl amount of money ($1500).
$1500 + $348 = $1848

Zach now has $1848

Help me on 16 and 17 please as fast as possible it’s due tomorrow
mihalych1998 [28]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

16.) 2/3

You add up the fractions and then reduce.

(5/12 + 3/12 = 8/12 = 2/3)

17.) No because if you add all the fractions together, you only get 7/8. This means the project is not complete yet.

Help me solve this pleaseee
Drupady [299]
Since they are equal to 90 degrees. (complimentary angles)

6x-11+7x+10= 90

Combine like terms.

13x-1= 90

Add one to both sides.

13x= 91

x= 7

Plug that into the b.

7(7)+10

49+10

59


I hope this helps!

Use the calculator to find the product. (9. 1 × 109)(7. 5 × 102) What is the exponent of the power in scientific notation?.
____ [38]

The exponent of the power is 11 in scientific notation.

<h3>Given </h3>

The numbers are;

The product of  (9. 1 × 10^9)(7. 5 × 10^2)

<h3>What is scientific notation?</h3>

Scientific notation is a method of expressing numbers in terms of a decimal number between 1 and 10, but not 10 itself multiplied by a power of 10.

To find the product of the given numbers follows all the steps given below.

The product of number is;

=(9.1 \times  10^9) \times (7.5 \times 10^2)\\\\= (9.1 \times 7.5) \times (10^{(9+2)})\\\\ =68.25 \times 10^{11}

Hence, the exponent of the power is 11 in scientific notation.

A rectangular enclosure is to be created using 82m rope.
atroni [7]
Let
x-----> the length of rectangle
y-----> the width of rectangle

we know that 
perimeter of rectangle=2*[x+y]
perimeter of rectangle=82 m
82=2*[x+y]---> divide by 2 both sides---> 41=x+y--> y=41-x---> equation 1

Area of rectangle=x*y
substitute equation 1 in the area formula
Area=x*[41-x]----> 41x-x²

using a graph tool
see the attached figure

the vertex is the point (20.5,420.25)
that means
 for x=20.5 m ( length of rectangle)
the area is 420.25 m²

y=420.25/20.5----> 20.5 m

the dimensions are
20.5 m x 20.5 m------> is a square

the answer part 1) 
<span>the dimensions of the rectangular with Maximum area is a square with length side 20.5 meters
</span>
Part 2)<span>b) Suppose 41 barriers each 2m long, are used instead. Can the same area be enclosed?
</span>divide the length side of the square by 2
so
20.5/2=10.25--------> 10 barriers
the dimensions are 10 barriers x 10 barriers
10 barriers=10*2---> 20 m

the area enclosed with barriers is =20*20----> 400 m²

400 m² < 420.25 m²
so

the answer Part 2) is 
<span>the area enclosed by the barriers is less than the area enclosed by the rope
</span>
Part 3)<span>How much more area can be enclosed if the rope is used instead of the barriers
</span>
area using the rope=420.25 m²
area using the barriers=400 m²

420.25-400=20.25 m²

the answer part 3) is
20.25 m²
