Answer:

1140 ways.

Step-by-step explanation:

The applicable formula is: (n +r - 1)C(r-1), where n is the number of identical items (the candies), and r is the possible number of recipients (the kids).

The 17 identical candies, can be distributed among the 4 children in :  

=(17 + 4 - 1)C(4–1) = 20C3 ways.

= 20!/((20–3)!*3!) ways.

= 20*19*18*17!/(17!*(3*2*1)) = 20*19*18/6 ways

= 20*19*3 ways.  

=1140 ways.

Answer: Choice A

Work Shown:

m = \text{geometric mean of x and y}\\\\m = \sqrt{x*y}\\\\m = \sqrt{18*7}\\\\m = \sqrt{9*2*7}\\\\m = \sqrt{9}*\sqrt{2*7}\\\\m = 3\sqrt{14}\\\\

The distance between (2, 3) and (1,7) is:
devlian [24]

Answer:

\sqrt{17}\: units

Step-by-step explanation:

d =  \sqrt{ {(2 - 1)}^{2} + {(3 - 7)}^{2}   }   \\  \\ = \sqrt{ {(1)}^{2} + {( - 4)}^{2}   }  \\  \\ = \sqrt{ 1 + 16   }  \\  \\  d=  \sqrt{17}  \\

The function f(x) = –x2 – 4x + 5 is shown on the graph. On a coordinate plane, a parabola opens down. It goes through (negative
madam [21]

The true statement is:

"The range of the function is all real numbers less than or equal to 9."

<h3>Which statements are true?</h3>

Here we have the quadratic function:

f(x) = -x^2 - 4x + 5

And we want to see which of the given statements are true.

The first one is:

"The domain is al real numbers less than or equal to -2"

This is false, for all quadratic functions the domain is the set of all real numbers (unless the domain is defined).

The second statement is:

" The domain of the function is all real numbers less than or equal to 9."

Also false

Third one:

" The range of the function is all real numbers less than or equal to −2"

The range of a quadratic function with a negative leading coefficient will be the set of all the values smaller than the y-value of the vertex.

In this case, the quadratic function is:

f(x) = -x^2 - 4x + 5

So the vertex is at:

x = 4/(2*-1) = -2\\

Then the y-value of the vertex is:

f(-2) = -(-2)^2 - 4*(-2) + 5 = -4 + 8 + 5 = 9

So the range is the set of all real numbers less than or equal to 9.

So the above statement is false, and the final one:

"The range of the function is all real numbers less than or equal to 9."

Is the true statement.
