Answer:

Option C

Step-by-step explanation:

Assuming P represents the number of outcomes, n the number of competitors and r the number of places to be awarded....

P = n! / ( n - r )!\\P = 8! / ( 8 - 3 )!\\P = 8! / 5!\\\\Algebra, P = 336 \\Solution = Option C

There are 336 different possible ways for the winners to be chosen.

Which second degree polynomial function f(x) has a lead coefficient of 3 and roots 4 and 1?
Stella [2.4K]

Answer:

f(x) = 3x² - 15x + 12

Step-by-step explanation:

Given f(x) has roots x = a and x = b, then

(x - a) and (x - b) are the factors

f(x) is then the product of the factors

f(x) = a(x - a)(x - b) ← where a is a multiplier

Given roots are x = 4 and x = 1, then

(x - 4) and (x - 1) are the factors

With a = 3, then

f(x) = 3(x - 4)(x - 1) ← expand factors using FOIL

     = 3(x² - 5x + 4) ← distribute

     = 3x² - 15x + 12

Triss [41]
To find the number of feet she jumped you have to divide 156 by 12 because there are 12 inches in a foot

So 156/12 =13
So she jumped 13 feet
