Permutation: In a race of 10 students, find the number of ways students can finish 1st, 2nd, and 3rd. In this case the order matters, so it is a permutation.
10 x 9 x 8 = 720 ways
Combination: In a class of 10 students, find the number of ways a group of 3 students can be selected to win a prize. In this case the order doesn't matter, so it's a combination.
10 x 9 x 8 / (3 x 2 x 1) = 120 ways
From the given problem above, the correct answer would be the last option since it stated that a number which is X is increased by five or added by five and then the sum is then squared. Therefore, it is option D. (X+5)^2.
Answer:
14 and 15
Step-by-step explanation:
<h3>
Answer: sin(C) = 3/5</h3>
==========================================================
Explanation:
Recall that sine is the ratio of opposite over hypotenuse.
For angle C, the opposite side is AB = 24 as this leg is furthest as possible from angle C. The hypotenuse is always opposite the 90 degree angle.
So,
sin(angle) = opposite/hypotenuse
sin(C) = AB/AC
sin(C) = 24/40
sin(C) = (8*3)/(8*5)
sin(C) = 3/5
If you want to find the measure of angle C, then you apply the arcsine rule to both sides. Inverse sine is the same as arcsine.
