Answer:

<h3>720 different ways</h3>

Step-by-step explanation:

Permutation has to do with arrangement. If r objevt selected from n pool of objects are to be arranged in a straight line, this can be done in nPr number of ways.

nPr = n!/(n-r)!

If 5 people are to be chosen and arranged in a straight line, if there are 6 people to choose from, this can be done in 6P5 numbe of ways.

6P5 = 6!/(6-5)!

6P5 = 6!/1!

6P5 = 6*5*4*3*2*1

6P5 = 720 different ways

Diego is solving the equation x^2-12x = 21

uysha [10]

Answer:

The solutions to the quadratic equations will be:

$x=\sqrt{57}+6,\:x=-\sqrt{57}+6$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the expression

$x^2-12x\:=\:21$

Let us solve the equation by completing the square

$x^2-12x\:=\:21$

Add (-6)² to both sides

$x^2-12x+\left(-6\right)^2=21+\left(-6\right)^2$

simplify

$x^2-12x+\left(-6\right)^2=57$

Apply perfect square formula: (a-b)² = a²-2ab+b²

i.e.

$x^2-12x+\left(-6\right)^2=\left(x-6\right)^2$

so the expression becomes

$\left(x-6\right)^2=57$

$\mathrm{For\:}f^2\left(x\right)=a\mathrm{\:the\:solutions\:are\:}f\left(x\right)=\sqrt{a},\:-\sqrt{a}$

solve

$x-6=\sqrt{57}$

add 6 to both sides

$x-6+6=\sqrt{57}+6$

Simplify

$x=\sqrt{57}+6$

also solving

$x-6=-\sqrt{57}$

add 6 to both sides

$x-6+6=-\sqrt{57}+6$

Simplify

$x=-\sqrt{57}+6$

Therefore, the solutions to the quadratic equation will be:

$x=\sqrt{57}+6,\:x=-\sqrt{57}+6$

Find the surface area of the composite figure

Maslowich

Answer:

498

Step-by-step explanation:

For the blue block: 4(7x2) + 2(2x2) = 56 + 8 = 64

For green block: 4(12x7) + 2(7x7) = 336 +98 = 434

434 + 64 = 498
