Freshmen: ₁₂C₂ \frac{12!}{2!(12 - 2)!} = \frac{12!}{2!*10!} = \frac{12 * 11 * 10!}{2*10!} = \frac{12 * 11}{2} = 6 * 11 = 66

Sophomore: ₁₇C₂  = \frac{17!}{2!(17 - 2)!} = \frac{17!}{2!*15!} = \frac{17 * 16 * 15!}{2 * 15!} = \frac{17 * 16}{2}  = 17 * 8 = 136

Juniors: ₁₆C₃ = \frac{16!}{3!(16 - 3)!} = \frac{16!}{3!*13!} = \frac{16 * 15 * 14 * 13!}{3 * 2 * 13!} = \frac{16 * 15 * 14}{2 * 3} = 8 * 5 * 14 = 560

Seniors: ₂₀C₃ = \frac{20!}{3!(20 - 3)!} = \frac{20!}{3!*17!} = \frac{20 * 19 * 18 * 17!}{3*2*17!} = \frac{20 * 19 * 18}{2 * 3} = 10 * 19 * 6 = 1140

₁₂C₂ * ₁₇C₂  * ₁₆C₃  * ₂₀C₃

66  * 136 *  560 * 1140 = 5,730,278,400

Answer: 5,730,278,400

AveGali [126]

Answer:

25 pages

Step-by-step explanation:

Create a proportion:

\frac{pages}{minutes} = \frac{20}{60} = \frac{x}{75}

Cross multiply and solve for x, the number of pages in 75 minutes:

60x = 1500

x = 25

So, he can read 25 pages in 75 minutes at the same rate

Substitute each given value of the variable to find which, if any, is a solution of inequality.
OlgaM077 [116]

Given:

The inequalities are:

a) w

b) t>-25, t=-24, -25, -25.1, -27

To find:

The solution of inequalities by substituting the given values.

Solution:

a) We have,

w

After substituting the given values one by one, we get

-4.3 False statement.

-5.3 False statement.

-8.3 True statement.

-9 True statement.

Therefore the solutions of w are w=-8.3, -9.

b)

We have,

t>-25, t=-24, -25, -25.1, -27

After substituting the given values one by one, we get

-24>-25 True statement.

-25>-25 False statement.

-25.1>-25 False statement.

-27>-25 False statement.

Therefore, the solution of t>-25 is t=-24.
