Anything that is multiplied by a number over 1 will get bigger. any other number such as negatives or fractions/decimals will get smaller. 1.25 and 3 are expansions and -2,3/4, and 1/5 are contractions
Answer: 120
Step-by-step explanation:
Given : The league championship 800 meter race has 6 runners.
The number of positions = 3
Since order matters here , so we use Permutation.
The permutation of n things taking r at a time is given by :-

Then, the number of different ways they place first, second, and third :_

Hence, they can place first, second, and third in 120 different ways .
X=6 because 2*6=12 and 12+4=16
Answer:
2x^2+4x-16
Step-by-step explanation:
The quadratic can be written as
f(x) = a(x-z1)(x-z2) where z1 and z2 are the roots
f(x) = a (x-2)(x- -4)
a is the leading coefficient
f(x) = 2(x-2)(x+4)
= 2(x^2 -2x+4x-8)
= 2(x^2 +2x-8)
= 2x^2 +4x-16
I think form reading this your going to need to add or divded i need more informtaion to understand your question
