Answer: 31,365

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : The number of horror films = 15

The number of comedies = 18

Then , the number of different combinations of 4 movies can he rent if he wants at least two comedies is given by :-

^{18}C_2\times ^{15}C_2+^{18}C_3\times ^{15}C_1+^{18}C_4\times ^{15}C_0\\\\=\dfrac{18!}{2!(18-2)!}\times\dfrac{15!}{2!(15-2)!}+\dfrac{18!}{3!(18-3)!}\times\dfrac{15!}{1!(15-1)!}+\dfrac{18!}{4!(18-4)!}\times\dfrac{15!}{0!(15-0)!}\\\\=16065+12240+3060=31365

Hence, the  number of different combinations of 4 movies can he rent if he wants at least two comedies = 31,365

Please Help!!! Determine the intercepts of the line that corresponds to the following table of values.
Orlov [11]

Answer:

y-intercept is (0,30); x-intercept is (52.5,0).

Step-by-step explanation:

Note that as x increases by 7 from -35 to -28,   y decreases by 4 from 18 to 14.  Thus, the slope of this line is

m = rise / run = -4/7.

Let's find the equation of the line.  Start with the slope-intercept form:

y = mx + b.  Use the slope m = -4/7 and the point (-28, 14) to find b:

14 = -(4/7)(28) + b, or

14 = -16 + b.  Then b = 30, and the equation of the line in slope-intercept form is y = (-4/7)x + 30.  The y-intercept is (0, 30).

Find the x-intercept by setting y=0 and solving the resulting equation for x:

y = (-4/7)x + 30 becomes (4/7)x = 30, and x = (7/4)(30) = 214, or 52.5.

The x-intercept is thus (52.5, 0).

the sum of the measures of the interior angels of a convex polygon is 3240 classify the polygon by the number of sides
Ipatiy [6.2K]

Answer:

20-gon

Step-by-step explanation:

First we start with the formula  to find what the sum of angles will be if we know the number of sides.  


S=(n-2)*180 where S is the sum of angles and n is the number of sides.


Normally you'd plug in n to find S, but you can do the opposite too.


3240=(n-2)*180


Let me know if you need help working it from here.

Find the value of the lesser root of x2 + 12x + 35 = 0.
matrenka [14]
In quadratic equations,
                                   a + b = -B
                                      ab = C
where a and b are the roots, B is the second term, and C is the constant.
Substituting,
                                  a + b = -12
                                      ab = 35
The values of a and b from the equation is -7 and -5. Thus, the lesser root is -7.

HELP PLEASEEEEEEEEEeeeee

Might have to experiment a bit to choose the right answer.

In A, the first term is 456 and the common difference is 10.  Each time we have a new term, the next one is the same except that 10 is added.

Suppose n were 1000.  Then we'd have 456 + (1000)(10) = 10456

In B, the first term is 5 and the common ratio is 3.  From 5 we get 15 by mult. 5 by 3.  Similarly, from 135 we get 405 by mult. 135 by 3.  This is a geom. series with first term 5 and common ratio 3.   a_n = a_0*(3)^(n-1).
So if n were to reach 1000, the 1000th term would be 5*3^999, which is a very large number, certainly more than the 10456 you'd reach in A, above.

Can you now examine C and D in the same manner, and then choose the greatest final value?  Safe to continue using n = 1000.
