The formula to find the permutations is nPr = $\frac{n!}{(n-r)!}$

Here n represents the total number of objects

r represents the number of objects taken at a time

The word TOPIC has 5 letters.

All the five letters are different.

And we need to take all 5 letters.

Hence n = 5 & r = 5

Number of arrangements = 5P5 = $\frac{5!}{(5-5)!} =\frac{5!}{0!} = 5!=120$

120 different arrangements can be made using all the letters in the word TOPIC

Number of difference arrangements = 5! = 5 x 4 x 3 x 2 x 1 = 120

Answer: There are 120 different arrangements.

Sara is building a triangular pen for her pet rabbit. If two of the sides measure 8 feet and 15 feet, what could the length of t

Aleks04 [339]

As the pen is a triangle, the third side can either be the hypotenuse or a regular side. If the third side is the hypotenuse, it's length would be $l= \sqrt{8^2+15^2} = \sqrt{64+225} = \sqrt{289} =17$ feet. If the third side is a regular side, than it would be $l= \sqrt{15^2-8^2} = \sqrt{225-64} = \sqrt{161}$ ≈12.689 feet. This means your third side can either be 17 feet long or 12.689 feet long.

a farmer wants to fence in three sides of a rectangular field shown below with 960 feet of fencing. The other side of the rectan

Answer:

240 ft by 480 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

Area is maximized when the long side is half the total length of the fence. That makes the short side (out from the river) be half the length of the long side.

The fenced field dimensions are 240 feet by 480 feet.

You can let x represent the length of the long side. Then the length of the short side is half the remaining fence: (960 -x)/2.

The total area is the product of these dimensions:

A = x(960 -x)/2

We note that this is the equation of a parabola with zeros at x=0 and x=960. The maximum will be found on the line of symmetry, halfway between the zeros. That is at x = (0 +960)/2 = 480.

The area is maximized for a long-side dimension of 480 feet. The short sides are 240 feet.
