Answer:

720

Step-by-step explanation:

I will use the following counting principle:

Product rule: if there are n ways of doing something, and m ways of doing another thing, there are n×m ways of doing both things.

First, we have to choose the 3 people that will be in the first row. This is a 3-element subset of  the set of six people, therefore there are \binom{6}{3}=20 ways of doing this.

Now, we have to arrange the order of the 2 lrows. Each one has 3 people, so there are 3!=6 ways to form one rows. Hence, there are 3!²=36 ways of arranging the two rows.

By the product rule, there are 20×36=720 ways of arrange the officers.

s344n2d4d5 [400]

Answer: The player need to make 2 consecutive free throws to raise the average to 75%.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number of extra consecutive free throws to raise the average to 75% be 'x'.

Number of free throws already taken = 32

Number of attempts = 45

According to question, it becomes,

\dfrac{32+x}{45}=0.75\\32+x=45\times 0.75\\\\32+x=33.75\\\\x=33.75-32\\\\x=1.75

Hence, the player need to make 2 consecutive free throws to raise the average to 75%.

Ahat [919]

Answer:

  • C. No. Vinay also multiplied the right-hand side of the equation by --5, which is incorrect.

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Proper application of the property:</u>

  • - 5(m - 2) - 25 = -5m - 5(-2) - 25 = -5m + 10 - 25 = -5m - 15

Vinay multiplied 5 and 25 as well, which is incorrect.

Correct answer choice is C.
