In how many ways can five basketball players be placed in three positions?

Mathematics

Georgia [21]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

10 ways

Step-by-step explanation:

The number of ways in which five basketball players could be placed in three positions is:

5C_{3} = \frac{5!}{(5-3)!3!}

      = \frac{5!}{3!2!}

      = \frac{5*4*3*2!}{3*2*2!}

      = 5 × 2

     = 10

The basketball players can be arranged in 10 ways.

At 2:00 PM a car's speedometer reads 30 mi/h. At 2:10 PM it reads 50 mi/h. Show that at some time between 2:00 and 2:10 the acce
Daniel [21]

Answer: If we define 2:00pm as our 0 in time; then:

at t= 0. the velocity is 30 mi/h.

then at t = 10m (or 1/6 hours) the velocity is 50mi/h

Then, if we think in the "mean acceleration" as the slope between the two velocities, we can find the slope as:

a= (y2 - y1)/(x2 - x1) = (50 mi/h - 30 mi/h)/(1/6h - 0h) = 20*6mi/(h*h) = 120mi/h^{2}

Now, this is the slope of the mean acceleration between t= 0h and t = 1/6h, then we can use the mean value theorem; who says that if F is a differentiable function on the interval (a,b), then exist at least one point c between a and b where F'(c) = (F(b) - F(a))/(b - a)

So if v is differentiable, then there is a time T between 0h and 1/6h where v(T) = 120mi/h^{2}

gavmur [86]

Answer:

2 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's denote the amount of time we need to find out, t.

=> 600 + 50t < 500 + 100t

or 600 - 500 < 100t - 50t

or 100 < 50t

or 100/50 < t

or t > 2

=> After 2 hours, company B will be cheaper option than company A

Sholpan [36]
For the answer to the question above, I believe the answer is simply <u><em>8.

2 groups divided into four participants. So all in all people needed is 8.
I hope this helped you. Have a nice day!
