Answer:

6 swimmers in the first heat can be arranged in 1716 different ways.

Step-by-step explanation:

A swim meet has 13 contestants signed up. To calculate the arrangement of first 6 swimmers in first heat we will use combinations because order doesn't matter.

So to select 6 swimmers out of 13 contestants number of different ways

= ^{13}C_{6}

= \frac{13!}{(6!)(13-6)!}

= \frac{13\times 12\times 11\times 10\times 9\times 8\times 7!}{6!\times 7!}

= \frac{13\times 12\times 11\times 10\times 9\times 8}{6\times 5\times 4\times 3\times 2\times 1}

= \frac{1235520}{720}

= 1716

Therefore, 6 swimmers in the first heat can be arranged in 1716 different ways.

Someone help with this please!!!!
damaskus [11]

Answer:

10^{4} * 10^{3}=(10*10*10*10)(10*10*10) = 10^{7}\\\\10^{4}*10^{4}=(10*10*10*10)(10*10*10*10) = 10^8\\\\(10*10*10)(10*10*10*10*10)=10^3*10^5=10^8\\

10^{18}*10^{23}= (10 x 10 18 times)(10 x 10 23 times) =10^{41}

just as a note: when you multiply numbers with exponents and they both have the same base, all you have to do is add the exponents.

Ex: 10^{5}*10^{4}=10^{5+4}=10^{9}

Jayden sells snow cones for $3.75 each. He started the day with a total of 300 snow cones to sell. If he made a total of $843.75
Leni [432]

Number of cone left is 75 cone

<u>Given that;</u>

Cost of each cone = $3.75 each

Starting number of cone = 300

Total amount earn = $843.75

<u>Find:</u>

Number of cone left

<u>Computation:</u>

Number of cone sale = Total amount earn / Cost of each cone

Number of cone sale = 843.75 / 3.75

Number of cone sale = 225 cone

Number of cone left = Starting number of cone - Number of cone sale

Number of cone left = 300 - 225

Number of cone left = 75 cone
