Answer:

27132

Step-by-step explanation:

Assuming the order does not matter, since it will always be a mixture of the same 6 books, we can calculate a combination for these outcomes.

The combination formula is:

nCr = n! ÷ (n-r)!r!

, where ! represents factorials, n represents the total number of items, and r represents the number of items being chosen.

So 19! ÷ (19-6)!6! = 19! ÷ 13! • 6!

19 • 18 • 17 • 16 • 15 • 14 ÷ 6 • 5 • 4 • 3 • 2

= 27132 different combinations of the 6 books.

If you use a calculator, find nCr, plug in 19 for n, and 6 for r.

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

the sum of the 3 angles in a triangle = 180°

Consider the triangle on the left

3rd angle = 180° - 60° - 90° = 180° - 150° = 30°

the 3rd angle of the triangle on the left = 30° ( vertically opposite angle ), so

∠ 1 = 180° - 30° - 65° = 180° - 95° = 85°

Answer:

f(½) = 1.73

f(¼) = 1.32

Step-by-step explanation:

You will find the complete question attached as a picture alongside the solution.

$\sqrt{3}$ y = f(x) = $3^{x}$

When f(x) ⇒ f(½); that is, x = ½

y = $3^{0.5}$ = $\sqrt {3}$

y = 1.7320508076 ≈ 1.73

y = <u>1.73</u> (to the nearest hundredth)

When f(x) ⇒ f(¼); that is, x = ¼

y = $3^{0.25}$ = $\sqrt[4]{3}$

y = 1.316074013 ≈ 1.32

y = <u>1.32</u> (to the nearest hundredth)
