Answer:

The combination is 15

Step-by-step explanation:

There are 6 people in a raffle drawing. two raffle winners each wing gift cards . each gift card is the same.

Lets call the winners Winner 1, Winner 2. According to the given statement each gift card is same, thus any permutation of these two winners are  equivalent.This tells us that the order of winners does not matter and the situation involves a combination.

Now we have to calculate the combination of 2 winners from 6 people.

nCm = m!/n!(m-n)!

where m = 6

n = 2

2C6 = 6!/2!(6-2)!

2C6 = 6!/2!(4)!

2C6 = 6*5*4*3*2*1/2*1*4*3*2*1

2C6= 6*5/2*1

2C6=30/2

2C6 = 15

Thus the combination is 15....

You can spend up to $35 on a shopping trip.
VMariaS [17]
A. 35 greater than or equal to 14 + x
    35 - 14 = 21
    x = $21
b. If the shirt is 30% off it would cost $9.80
    14 x 0.3 = 4.2
    14 - 4.2 = 9.8
    35 is greater than or equal to 9.80 + x
    35 - 9.8 = 25.2
    x = $25.20
    This changes the inequality by making x greater than it was in part a
c. Yes, you do have enough money to buy the shirt that is on sale and a pair of pants. x is the amount that you have left to spend after you buy the shirt that is on sale. 25.20 is greater than the cost of the pants.

Not sure how to do #69, it's a calc 1 question
Gnoma [55]
Let A( t , f( t ) ) be the point(s) at which the graph of the function has a horizontal tangent => f ' ( t ) = 0.

But, f ' ( x ) = [ ( x^2 ) ' * ( x - 1 ) - ( x^2 ) * ( x - 1 )' ] / ( x - 1 )^2 =>
f ' ( x ) = [ 2x( x - 1 ) - ( x^2 ) * 1 ] / ( x - 1 )^2 => f ' ( x ) = ( x^2 - 2x ) / ( x - 1 )^2;

f ' ( t ) = 0 <=> t^2 - 2t = 0 <=> t * ( t - 2 ) = 0 <=> t = 0 or t = 2 => f ( 0 ) = 0; f ( 2 ) = 4 => A 1 ( 0 , 0 ) and A 2 ( 2 , 4 ).
