Answer:

D.

Combination; number of ways = 10

Step-by-step explanation:

Permutation is when order matters

Combinations is when order doesn't matter.

Since there are two identical gift cards, it doesn't matter who  gets the first gift card and who gets the second gift card, so this is a combination

There are 5 people choose 2

n!

--------

r!(n − r)!

where n is the number of items and r is how many we choose

5!              5*4*3*2*1

--------    = ------------------  = 10

2! (5-2)!      2*1  ( 3*2*1)

D.

Combination; number of ways = 10

Solve for x I need help on this question
AlexFokin [52]

Answer:

x\approx7.8

Step-by-step explanation:

In relation to the given angle, we are given the triangle's opposite side and hypotenuse. Therefore, we use the sine function to set up a proportion and solve for the opposite side:

sin(\theta)=\frac{opposite}{hypotenuse}

sin(23^\circ)=\frac{x}{20}

20sin(23^\circ)=x

x=20sin(23^\circ)

x\approx7.8

Therefore, the length of the opposite side is about 7.8 units

sergij07 [2.7K]
The coach can select the captain in 20 ways (i.e. from all the available 20 players), and he can select the co-captain in 19 ways (i.e. after selecting the captain, there will be 19 people left).
Therefore, the coach can select the captain and the co-captain in 20 x 19 = 380 ways.
