There are 6 people in a raffle drawing, Two raffle winners each win gift cards,

Tju [1.3M]

Answer:

B. Combination: Number of ways = 15

Step-by-step explanation:

2 winners are to be chosen out of 6 people participating in the raffle drawing. In this case the order of selection does not matter, therefore, this situation involves combinations

So, we have to find combinations of 6 people taken 2 at a time. This can be represented by 6C2. The general formula for combinations is:

$^{n}C_{r}=\frac{n!}{r!(n-r)!}$

In this case n = 6 and r = 2. Using these values, we get:

$^{6}C_{2}=\frac{6!}{2! \times (6-2)!} \\\\ ^{6}C_{2}= \frac{6!}{2! \times 4!}\\\\ ^{6}C_{2}=\frac{6 \times 5 \times 4!}{2 \times 4!}\\\\ ^{6}C_{2}= \frac{30}{2}\\\\ ^{6}C_{2}= 15$

Thus, there are 15 ways to chose the winners. So, option B gives the correct answer.

Need help parabola and its vertex

AVprozaik [17]

$y + 13 = 2(x - 1)^2$

use the equation: $(y_{2} - y_{1}) = m({x_{2} - x_{1})^2$

$(-11 + 13) = m(0 - 1)^2$

$2 = m(1)^2$

$m = 2$

$y + 13 = 2(x - 1)^2$

substitute y for 0, since x-intercepts occur on the x-axis, or the line y = 0

$0 + 13 = 2(x - 1)^2$

$13 = 2(x - 1)^2$

$13 = 2(x^2 - 2x + 1)[tex]\\[tex]13 = 2x^2 - 4x + 2$

$2x^2 - 4x - 15$

use the quadratic equation (can't type it out on brainly, if you don't know, look it up)

$x = 1 - \sqrt{ \frac{13}{2} }, 1 + \sqrt{ \frac{13}{2} }$

The answer is: $(1 - \sqrt{ \frac{13}{2} },0)$ and $(1 + \sqrt{ \frac{13}{2} },0)$
