Answer:

There are 524,560 ways that the committee can be appointed.

Step-by-step explanation:

There are 9 different positions, a president, 3 officers and five committee members.

So

P - O1 - O2 - O3 - C1 - C2 - C3 - C4 - C5

There are 17 candidates, any of them can be president. So P = 17.

All of the others can be an officers. So O1 = 16, O2 = 15(17 subtracted by the president and O1), O3 = 14.

The officers can be committee members, so, C1 = 16, C2 = 15, C3 = 14, C4 = 13, C5 = 12.

How many different ways can the committee be appointed?

This is the sequence C1...C5:

$N = 16*15*14*13*12 = 524,560$

There are 524,560 ways that the committee can be appointed.

Mrs. Greensmith works a PC Richards and earns $35 per week plus a 12% commission o sales. How much would she earn for the week i

n200080 [17]

Answer: $245

she makes $35 every week (her wage, i’m assuming) regardless of how many sales she makes.

in order to find out how much money she makes out of her sales, you have to multiply the percentage commission by how much her sales was: so .12x1750 = $210 from sales.

you then add up her wage and her sales money, so $35 from wage + $210 from sales = $245 total for the week

answer: $245

1. What is the solution of n² – 49 = 0? (1 point)

maks197457 [2]

Answer:

1. $n=\pm7$

2. $x=\pm7i[tex]3.[tex]\pm 12x =a$

4. 22

Step-by-step explanation:

1. $n^2 - 49 = 0$

$n^2 =49$

$n= \sqrt{49}$

$n=\pm7$

2. $x^2+64 = 0$

$x^2 =-64$

$x= \sqrt{49}$

$x=\pm7i[tex]3. Area of square = [tex]a^{2}$

Where a is the side

We are given an area o square = $144x^{2}$

So, $144x^{2}=a^{2}$

$\sqrt{144x^{2}}=a$

$\pm 12x =a$

4. We are given that the solution of quadratic equation -9 and 9

So, equation becomes:

$(x+9)(x-9)=0$

$x^2- 81=0$

So, in the given equation $x^2 + z = 103$

z should be the number from which if we subtract 103 so we get 81

Substitute z = 22

$x^2 + 22 = 103$

$x^2 + 22 -103=0$

$x^2 -81=0$

Thus the value of z is 22

What is the slope of the line that passes the points(6,2) and (12,-2)

Levart [38]

The slope is -2/3.

You have to do -2-2 and you get -4.
Then you do 12-6 and you get 6.
The final step is to do -4 divide 6 and you get -2/3.
