In a perfect square trinomial , the terms are in the form of


a^2 + 2ab  + b^2 , so that it can be factored and we get (a+b)^2


Now lets compare the given expression

x^2 - 10x + n

Now we can compare this with a^2 + 2ab  + b^2

we get a=x , 2ab = -10x

So we get

2(x) b = -10x

it means 2b = -10

b=-5


But n=b^2 = (-5)^2 = 25


Hence, n= 25

How many ways can eight letters be arranged into groups of five where order matters and the first two letters are already chosen
fenix001 [56]

Answer:

120

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we're dealing with a problem where the order matters and the first two letters are already chosen we need to subtract the number of letters and the number of available slots per group.

We use the permutation formula to find the answer, but before that let's check values.

n = 8

k = 5

Now since there are two letters already chosen we have to deduct two from both the value of n and k.

n = 6

k = 3

Now we can use the permutation formula:

_{n}P_{k}=\dfrac{n!}{(n-k)!}

_{6}P_{3}=\dfrac{6!}{6-3)!}

_{6}P_{3}=\dfrac{6!}{3!}

_{6}P_{3}=\dfrac{6*5*4*3*2*1}{3*2*1}

The 3*2*1 cancels out and leaves us with:

_{6}P_{3}=6*5*4

_{6}P_{3}=120

So there are 120 possible ways to arrange eight letters into groups of five where order matters and the first two letters are already chosen.
