Answer:

C. 20

Step-by-step explanation:

There are 5 possible candidates for president.

After the president is selected, there are 4 remaining possible candidates for vice president.

Therefore, the number of permutations is 4 × 5 = 20.

Answer:

C. 20

Step-by-step explanation:

The order in which the members are selected is important. The first one selected is the president and the second is the vice president.

So we use the permutations formula to solve this question.

Permutations formula:

The number of possible permutations of x elements from a set of n elements is given by the following formula:

P_{(n,x)} = \frac{n!}{(n-x)!}

In this problem:

2 people are going to be chosen from a set of 5. So

P_{(5,2)} = \frac{5!}{(5-2)!} = 20

So the correct answer is:

C. 20

Classify each function. (a) y = x − 3 x + 3 root function logarithmic function power function trigonometric function rational fu
Studentka2010 [4]

Answer:

a) rational

b) rational

c)exponential

d) power function

e) polynomial function of degree 6

f) trig function

Step-by-step explanation:

Functions can be classified by the operations they contain. Remember the following functions:

  • Power function has as its main operation of an exponent on the variable.
  • Root function has as its main operation a radical.
  • Log function has as its main operation a log.
  • Trig function has as its main operation sine, cosine, tangent, etc.
  • Rational exponent has as its main function division by a variable.
  • Exponential function has as its main operation a variable as an exponent.
  • Polynomial function is similar to a power function. It has as its main function an exponent of 2 or greater on the variable.

Below is listed each function. The bolded choice is the correct type of function:

(a) y = x − 3 / x + 3 root function logarithmic function power function trigonometric function rational function exponential function polynomial function of degree 3

(b) y = x + x2 / x − 2 power function rational function algebraic function logarithmic function polynomial function of degree 2 root function exponential function trigonometric function

(c) y = 5^x logarithmic function root function trigonometric function exponential function polynomial function of degree 5 power function

(d) y = x^5 trigonometric function power function exponential function root function logarithmic function

(e) y = 7t^6 + t^4 − π logarithmic function rational function exponential function trigonometric function power function algebraic function root function polynomial function of degree 6

(f) y = cos(θ) + sin(θ) logarithmic function exponential function root function algebraic function rational function power function polynomial function of degree 6 trigonometric function

Feliz [49]
First convert 6 miles to yards. That would be 10,560 next divde it by 350 to get 30.1786 but you have to round it to the next lap. Therfore, youll have to run a total of 31 laps around the field.
