Answer:

120 distinct results are possible if no child is to receive more than one gifts.

Step-by-step explanation:

When the order is not important, we use the combination formula:

C_{n,x} is the number of different combinatios of x objects from a set of n elements, given by the following formula.

C_{n,x} = \frac{n!}{x!(n-x)!}

The order is said to be not important if for example, John receiving the Buffalo Bills jersey and then Laura receiving the Cleveland Browns jersey is the same as Laura receiving the Cleveland Browns jersey before John receives the Buffalo Bills jersey.

In this problem, we have that:

Combinations of 7 from a set of 10 elements. So

C_{n,x} = \frac{n!}{x!(n-x)!}

C_{10,7} = \frac{10!}{7!(3)!} = 120

120 distinct results are possible if no child is to receive more than one gifts.

Which function is represented by the graph? f(x) = â’|x â’ 3| 4 f(x) = â’|x 3| 4 f(x) = â’|x â’ 4| 3 f(x) = â’|x 4| 3.
irinina [24]

Functions are used to represent graphs, and vice versa.

The function represented by the graph is f(x) =- |x + 4| + 3

The graph (see attachment) is an absolute value graph.

An absolute value graph is represented as:

f(x) =a |x - h| + k

Where

Vertex = (h,k)

The vertex is the minimum or the maximum point on the graph.

So, we have:

Vertex = (-4,3)

The function becomes

f(x) =a |x + 4| + 3

The function also passes through the point (-1,0).

So, we have:

0 =a |-1 + 4| + 3

0 =a |3| + 3

Remove the absolute bracket

0 =3a + 3

Subtract 3 from both sides

3a =- 3

Divide both sides by 3

a =- 1

Substitute -1 for (a) in f(x) =a |x + 4| + 3

f(x) =- |x + 4| + 3

Hence, the function represented by the graph is f(x) =- |x + 4| + 3

Answer:

  • slope = 3/2
  • y-intercept = 3
  • x-intercept = -2

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope is the coefficient of x when the equation is of the form ...

  y = (something).

Here, we can put the equation in that form by subtracting 12x and dividing by the coefficient of y:

  12x -8y = -24 . . . . . given

  -8y = -12x -24 . . . . .subtract 12x

  y = 3/2x +3 . . . . . . . divide by -8

This is the "slope-intercept" form of the equation. Generically, it is written ...

  y = mx + b . . . . . . where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept

So, the above equation answers two of your questions:

  slope = 3/2

  y-intercept = 3

__

The x-intercept is found fairly easily from the original equation by setting y=0:

  12x = -24

  x = -24/12 = -2 . . . . . the x-intercept

_____

A graph of the equation can also show you these things. The graph shows a rise of 3 units for a run of 2, so the slope is rise/run = 3/2. The line crosses the axes at x=-2 and y=3, the intercepts.

Assume that A ABC= A POR. Which of the following congruence statements are correct? Check all that apply. A. AB = OR B. BE PO C.
yulyashka [42]

For congruence of triangles.

If;

\Delta ABC\cong\Delta PQR

Then the corresponding sides and angles will be equal.

\begin{gathered} AB=PQ \\ BC=QR \\ AC=PR \\ \measuredangle A=\measuredangle P \\ \measuredangle B=\measuredangle Q \\ \measuredangle C=\measuredangle R \end{gathered}

Only the above congruence statements are true.

Any options that has any of the above congruence statement is true.
