Find the number of ways of arranging the numbers

First of all, note that all integers are either 0,1, or 2 modulo 3 (if you're not familiar with this terminology, it means that every integer is either a multiple of 3, or it is 1 or 2 away from a multiple of 3).

So, we can think of our numbers as

\begin{array}{c|c}x&x\mod 3\\0&0\\1&1\\2&2\\3&0\\4&1\\5&2\\6&0\\7&1\\8&2\\9&0\end{array}

In order to make sure that the sum of any three adjacent numbers is divisible by 3, we have to make sure that any group of 3 three adjacent numbers contains a 0, a 1 and a 2. This is possible only if we arrange our 9 numbers in 3 groups of 3 numbers containing 0,1 and 2 exactly once, repeating always the same pattern.

For example, we could arrange our numbers following the pattern

0,1,2,0,1,2,0,1,2

or

2,0,1,2,0,1,2,0,1

We have 3!=6 possible patterns. Suppose for example that we choose the pattern

0,1,2,0,1,2,0,1,2

One possible way of following this pattern would be the arrangement

3,1,2,6,4,5,9,7,8

In fact, we substituted every '0' with a multiple of 3 (3, 6 or 9), every '1' with a number 1 away from a multiple of 3 (1, 4 or 7) and every '2' with a number 2 away from a multiple of 3 (2, 5 or 8).

This means that, once we fix a patter, we have 3 choices for the first 3 slots, 2 choices for the next 3 slots, and the final slot will be fixed. So, we have

3\cdot 3\cdot 3\cdot 2 \cdot 2 \cdot 2 = 216

possible ways of following a fixed pattern. Since the number of patterns was 6, we have

216\cdot 6 = 1296

possible arrangements.

Answer: 432

Step-by-step explanation:

Each number is a multiple of 3, or 1 more than a multiple of 3, or one less than a multiple of 3.  These number we will call x's, y's, and z's.

If we add x + y + z, then we get x, because y and z will even each other out, since y is 1 more than multiple of 3 and z is one less.

Because of this, we can conclude that we have to arrange the numbers in a repeating pattern, like x, y, z, x, y, z, ... or z, y, x, z, y, x, ...

In this set 1, 2, 3, ..., 9, there are 3 x's, 3 y's, and 3 z's.

To fill up a pattern, there are 3 choices for the first x, y, z, 2 choices for second, then 1 choice.

3^3 * 2^3 * 1^3 = 27*8*1 = 216

This is equal for both patterns, so there are 216 * 2 = 432 ways to arrange the numbers.

The diagram above shows a rectangle inscribed in a circle AB=10 and AC =12 caculate the total surface area of the shaded part
erastova [34]

Answer:

71.63 \: \: \mathrm{cm^2 }

Step-by-step explanation:

Once we know the diameter of the circle, we can figure out the problem.

The diameter of the circle = The diagonal of the rectangle inscribed in the circle

To find the diagonal of the rectangle, we can use a formula.

d=\sqrt{w^2 + l^2}

The width is 10 cm and the length is 12 cm.

d=\sqrt{10^2 + 12^2}

d \approx 15.62

The diagonal of the rectangle inscribed in the circle is 15.62 cm.

The diameter of the circle is 15.62 cm.

Find the area of the whole circle.

A=\pi r^2

The r is the radius of the circle, to find radius from diameter we can divide the value by 2.

r = \frac{d}{2}

r=\frac{15.62}{2}

r=7.81

Let’s find the area now.

A=\pi (7.81)^2

A \approx 191.625

Find the area of rectangle.

A=lw

Length × Width.

A = 12 \times 10

A=120

Subtract the area of the whole circle with the area of rectangle to find area of shaded part.

191.625-120

71.625 \approx 71.63

Please find the fully simplified intercept form!!!! Will mark Brianliest !!!!!!!!!!!
photoshop1234 [79]

Answer:

  • y = -1/3x  - 8

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Slope intercept form:</u>

  • y = mx + b

<u>Use two points from the graph:</u>

  • (0, -8) and (3, -9)

<u>The first point is the y-intercept: </u>

  • b = -8

<u>Find the slope using the slope formula:</u>

  • m = (y2 - y1)/(x2 - x1)
  • m = (-9 - (-8))/3 = -1/3

<u>The equation is:</u>

  • y = -1/3x  - 8
