Answer:

d. 126; 70

Step-by-step explanation:

given that Ron  finds 9 books at a bookstore that he would like to buy, but he can afford only 5 of them.

Out of 9 books he has to select 5 of them

Here selection of books can be done in any order.  Hence order does not matter

No of ways he selects 5 books out of 9 books = 9C5

= 126

Part II

One book is a must

Hence he has options only 4 books from the remaining 8.

No of ways when one book is compulsory = selecting 3 books from 8 books

= 8C4

= 70

Option d is right.

Find the distance between the points given.<br><br> (2, 2) and (5, 5)
mario62 [17]
Distance between two points, d, is given by
d= \sqrt{ ( x_{2} - x_{1}) ^{2} + (y_{2} - y_{1}) ^{2} }&#10;
where: (x1, y1) = (2, 2) and (x2, y2) = (5, 5)
d= &#10;\sqrt{ ( 5 - 2) ^{2} + (5 - 2) ^{2} } \\ d= \sqrt{ (3)^{2} + 3^{2} }  &#10;\\ d= \sqrt{9+9}  \\ d= \sqrt{18}  \\ d=3\sqrt{2} \ units

Suppose that x and y vary inversely, and x = 12 when y = 8 . Write the function that models the inverse variation.
Alja [10]

Answer:

y=\frac{96}{x}

Step-by-step explanation:

So when x and y, vary inversely, it means that the product of x and y will remain constant such that: xy=c. This means that the function can be defined as y=\frac{c}{x} by dividing both sides by x. In this case x=12, and y=8, this means the constant is equal to 12 * 8 which is 96. So we have the equation:  xy = 96, which can be defined as y=\frac{96}{x}
