Out of 10 students, 2 will be chosen to ride in a car instead of a van on an upcoming field trip. Which statement best describes

this situation?
A. There are 10P2 = 90 ways the students can be chosen to ride in the car because the order in which the students are chosen matters.

B. There are 10C2 = 45 ways the students can be chosen to ride in the car because the order in which the students are chosen matters.

C. There are 10P2 = 90 ways the students can be chosen to ride in the car because the order in which the students are chosen doesn’t matter.

D. There are 10C2 = 45 ways the students can be chosen to ride in the car because the order in which the students are chosen doesn’t matter.

Answer:

D

Step-by-step explanation:

Firstly, since it is a selection question, we shall be using a combination approach.

So here we are trying to select the best answer that describes that 2 out of 10 students are selected.

Let’s consider the scenario below;

selecting r out of n can be resolved using the combination nCr

= n!/(n-r)!r!

Now in this case, our n = 10 and r = 2.

Thus, 10C2, we have ;

10!/(10-2)!2! = 10!/8!2! = (10 * 9 * 8!)/8!2! = (10 *9)/2! = 90/2 = 45

Thus, 10C2 = 45

Here, the order of selection does not matter as we can select in random fashion. This makes option D correct

(4x^5 + 3x^2 – x^4) +(6x^2 - 2x^5)
Monica [59]

Answer:

The simplified equation is as follows 2x^5 -x^4 + 9x^2

Step-by-step explanation:

Remove the parentheses around each equation and pair like exponents together

4x^5 - 2x^5 - x^4 + 3x^2 + 6x^2

Then combine the like terms

2x^5 - x^4 + 9x^2

It is in that order due to the proper form being to go from the highest to lowest exponents in an answer

To rent a bicycle at the beaches there is an initial fee of $12 for each hour the bicycle is rented there's an additional $5 fee
Bingel [31]
Initialfee+variablefee=total
initialfee=12
variaablefeet=hours times 5

total=27
27=12+5 times hours
minus 12 both sides
15=5 times hours
divide both sides by 5
3=hours

rented 3 hours

A, B, and C are collinear, and B is between A and C. The ratio of AB to AC is 1:2 If A is at (6,3) and B is at (-1,2), what are
Maksim231197 [3]

Answer:

The coordinates of C is (-8,1)

Step-by-step explanation:

Looking at the attached image, you'd see that, AB is 1 and BC is 1, that's because we are told that ratio of AB to AC is 1:2 meaning, AC is 2 and AB is 1. Therefore for that ratio to be satisfied BC has to be 1 so that AC would be 2.

Now let's assume the coordinates of C is (x,y).

To get it's coordinates, we use the section formula:

(x,y)= (\frac{mx + nx_{1}}{m + n} , \frac{my + ny_{1}}{m + n})

Where (m,n) is the (AB, BC)

Therefore we have

(-1,2) = (\frac{1\times x + 1\times6}{1 + 1} , \frac{1\times y + 1\times3}{1 + 1})

This gives:

(-1,2) = (\frac{x + 6}{2} , \frac{y + 3}{2})

-1 =( \frac{x + 6}{2} and 2 = \frac{y + 3}{2})

From there x = -8 and y = 1

Therefore the coordinates of C is (-8, 1).
