Answer:

19958400 ways

Step-by-step explanation:

As the question involves arrangement, permutation will be used.

P(n,r) = n! / (n-r)!

Here

n=12

and

r = 8

So,

P(12,8) = 12!/(12-8)!

= 12!/ 4!

=19958400 ways

Therefore, the 8 objects from 12 can be arranged in 19958400 ways ..

Answer:

Answer is ...Obtuse

Step-by-step explanation:

$\frac{m$

$\frac{5x + 4}{2} = \frac{3}{2} x + 21$

$\frac{5x + 4}{2} = \frac{3x + 42}{2}$

$5x + 4 = 3x + 42$

$5x - 3x = 42 - 4$

$2x = 38$

$x = 19$

$substituting \: x = 19 \: \:in \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \\ m$

We get,

m<ABC =

$(5 \times 19) + 4 = 99$

Hence <ABC is obtuse

Jones Co. pays its employees on a graduated commission scale: 2% on first $30,000; 3% on sales from $30,000 to $60,000; and 5% o

Gnesinka [82]

We need to separate his total earnings out into the different categories:

Category 1 (2%): 30,000
Category 2 (3%): 60,000-30,000 = 30,000
Category 3 (5%): 92,000-60,000 = 32,000

To calculate a percentage we multiply by that percentage divided by 100.
Now we can work out the commissions:
1) 30,000*0.02 = $600
2) 30,000*0.03 = $900
3) 32,000*0.05 = $1600

Adding these together, we get $3100

Explain why a change from 20 to 40 is a 100% increase, but a change from 40 to 20 is a 50% decrease.

Rainbow [258]

Answer:

Because 20 has to be doubled to become 40. While 40 is twice as much as 20 so you just divide 40 by 20 to get 50%.

Explanation:

20 x 20 = 40 = 100%

40 / 20 = 50%

A locker requires a three-digit code to open the lock. The code must contain one letter and two numbers, and no letter or number

mixas84 [53]

A locker requires a three-digit code to open the lock. The code must contain one letter and two numbers, and no letter or number can be repeated. You can choose from among four letters, A, B, C, and D, and two numbers, 5 and 6.

The size of the sample space is: (8, 16, 20, 24)

If a code is chosen at random, the probability that it has a letter that immediately follows an odd number is: (1/8, 1/6, 1/3, 2/5, 2/3)

If a code is chosen at random, the probability that D is in the code but is not in the first position is: (1/8, 1/6, 1/3, 2/5, 2/3)
