Tim must read 2 books from a list of 7 recommended books for his summer reading program. In how many different ways can Tim choo

Marianna [84]

There are 21 ways Tim choose 2 books from the 7 recommended book

Solution:

Given that Tim must read 2 books from a list of 7 recommended books for his summer reading program

To find: different ways can Tim choose 2 books from the 7 recommended books

This is a combination problem

A combination is a selection of all or part of a set of objects, without regard to the order in which objects are selected

The formula for combinations is:

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

where n represents the number of items, and r represents the number of items being chosen at a time

Here we have to choose 2 books from 7 books

Therefore, n = 7 and r = 2

Substituting values in above formula, we get

$\begin{aligned}&7 C_{2}=\frac{7 !}{2 !(7-2) !}\\\\&7 C_{2}=\frac{7 !}{2 ! \times 5 !}\end{aligned}$

For a number n, the factorial of n can be written as,

$n !=n \times(n-1) \times(n-2) \dots \dots \times 2 \times 1$

Therefore, we get

$7 C_{2}=\frac{7 \times 6 \times 5 \times 4 \times 3 \times 2 \times 1}{2 \times 1 \times 5 \times 4 \times 3 \times 2 \times 1}\\\\7C_2 = 7 \times 3 = 21$

Thus there are 21 ways Tim choose 2 books from the 7 recommended book

Semenov [28]

Answer:

false

Step-by-step explanation:

1/8 = .125

2/4 = .5

therefore 1/8 does not = 2/4

According to the Rational Root Theorem, which function has the same set of potential rational roots as the function g(x) = 3x^5

nata0808 [166]

Answer:

The correct option is A.

Step-by-step explanation:

The question is:

According to the Rational Root Theorem, which function has the same set of potential rational roots as the function g(x) = 3x5 – 2x4 + 9x3 – x2 + 12?

A).f(x) = 3x5 – 2x4 – 9x3 + x2 – 12

B).f(x) = 3x6 – 2x5 + 9x4 – x3 + 12x

C).f(x) = 12x5 – 2x4 + 9x3 – x2 + 3

D).f(x) = 12x5 – 8x4 + 36x3 – 4x2 + 48

Solution:

The function given to us is:

3x5 – 2x4 + 9x3 – x2 + 12

Find the factors of 12 and consider it as 'p'

The factors of 12 are:

p = +/- 1 , +/-2 , +/-3 , +/- 4 , +/-6

Now find the factors of 3 and consider it as 'q'

The factors of 3 are:

q = +/- 1 , +/- 3

We know that we write rational terms in p/q form.

Therefore the Rational roots are given by p/q

+/- 1 , +/-2 , +/-3 , +/- 4 , +/-6 , +/- 1/3 , +/- 2/3 , +/- 4/3

Now we will solve the first function given in part A.

f(x) = 3x^5 – 2x^4 - 9x^3 + x^2 - 12

Again find the factors of 12 and consider it as 'p'

The factors are:

p = +/- 1 , +/-2 , +/-3 , +/- 4 , +/-6

Now find the factors of 3 and consider it as 'q' .

q = +/- 1 , +/- 3

Rational root are given by p/q

+/- 1 , +/-2 , +/-3 , +/- 4 , +/-6 , +/- 1/3 , +/- 2/3 , +/- 4/3

Therefore the rational roots of the given function matches the rational roots of the given equation.

Hence the correct option is A

Help? Solve the system of equations. y = 3x y = x2 + 3x – 16 solutions: ( );( )

mote1985 [20]

Answer:

(- 4, - 12 ) , (4, 12 )

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the 2 equations

y = 3x → (1)

y = x² + 3x - 16 → (2)

Substitute y = x² + 3x - 16 into (1)

x² + 3x - 16 = 3x ( subtract 3x from both sides )

x² - 16 = 0 ( add 16 to both sides )

x² = 16 ( take the square root of both sides )

x = ± $\sqrt{16}$ = ± 4

Substitute these values into (1) for corresponding values of y

x = - 4 : y = 3 × - 4 = - 12 ⇒ (- 4, - 12 )

x = 4 : y = 3 × 4 = 12 ⇒ (4, 12 )
