7 0

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.

Quadrilateral RJFT is similar to quadrilateral SYPA . JF=60 mm , AP=40 mm , and YP=25 mm . What is TF ?

Hoochie [10]

The two quadrilaterals are similar. Which means the ratios of respective sides of two quadrilaterals will be the same.

So, for the given quadrilaterals, ratio of sides JF and TF of quadrilateral RJFT will be equal to the ratio of sides YP and AP of quadrilateral SYPA. Mathematically, we can write:

$JF:TF = YP:AP \\ \\ 
 \frac{JF}{TF} = \frac{YP}{AP} \\ \\ 
 \frac{60}{TF} = \frac{25}{40} \\ \\ 
60* \frac{40}{25}=TF \\ \\ 
TF=96mm$

So the measure of TF will be 96mm
