Answer: 34,650

Step-by-step explanation:

Given Word : "MISSISSIPPI"

The total number of letters in the given word: 11

Number of times S appears : 4

Number of times I appears : 4

Number of times P appears :2

Now, by permutations the number of arrangements of the letters in the given word will be :

$n=\dfrac{11!}{4!4!2!}\\\\=34650$

Hence, the the number of arrangements of the letters in the given word= 34,650.

Nate is constructing a tangent line to a circle he drew from a point outside the circle. Once he has the circle and the point is

Tema [17]

Answer:

The next step is to find the point on the circle which makes a tangent line that passes through the outside point.

Step-by-step explanation:

A tangent line to a circle is a line that touches the circle at exactly one point. You need two points to draw a line. You already have one point and the circle, then you need the other point, which lies on the circle. These two points have to lie on the same line. Notice that there are two possible tangent lines.

How many solutions are there to the equation x1 + x2 + x3 + x4 + x5 + x6 = 25 in which each xi is a non-negative integer and … (

prohojiy [21]

Answer:

The equation x1 + x2 + x3 + x4 + x5 + x6 = 25 in which each xi is a non-negative integer and … Will have:

(a) 6 solutions where there are no other restrictions.

(b) 4 Solutions for xi ≥ 3 for i = 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6(x3 + x4 +x5 + x6 = 25)

( x3 + x4 + x5 + x6 = 25)

(d) 5 Solutions for 2 ≤ x2 ≤ 7

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation have 6 unknown variables . This means it will have 6 solutions when no condition is imposed as in (a) above. The number of unknown variables in the equation will give the numbers of solutions

When the conditions are imposed, the numbers of unknown variables will give the number of solutions.

In (b) and (c), the equation will reduce to x3 + x4 +x5 + x6 = 25) and the unknown variables are 4, giving 4 solutions

In (d), the equation will reduce be 5 unknown variables(x2 + x3 + x4 +x5 + x6 = 25) and the solution is 5
