Answer:

The number of ways is  \left n} \atop {}} \right. P_r  =  336

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told that

   The number of tickets are   n = 8

    The number of finalist are r   =3

Generally the number of way by which this winners can be drawn and arrange in the order of   1^{st} , \  2nd ,  \  3rd    is mathematically represented as

             \left n} \atop {}} \right. P_r  =  \frac{n\ !}{(n-r) !}

substituting values

             \left n} \atop {}} \right. P_r  =  \frac{ 8!}{(8-3) !}

           \left n} \atop {}} \right. P_r  =  \frac{ 8* 7*6*5*4*3*2*1}{ 5*4*3*2*1}

           \left n} \atop {}} \right. P_r  =  336

Mike and Beth both write the decimal 0.8 (0.88888...)as a fraction. Mike: 45 Beth: 89 Which student wrote the correct fraction?
fenix001 [56]

Answer:

see the explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

we have

0.888...

This is a <u>repeating decimal</u> (Is a decimal that has a digit, or a block of digits, that repeat over and over and over again without ever ending)

Convert to fraction number

Let

x=0.888...

10x=8.888...

Subtract 0.888... from 8.888... to remove the decimal

10x-x=8.888...-0.888...

9x=8

Solve for x

x=8/9

therefore

Mike fraction is incorrect

because 4/5=0.8

0.8 is a <u>terminating decimal </u>(It's a decimal with a finite number of digits)

Mike's mistake was considering the number as a terminating decimal instead of a repeating decimal

Beth is correct

because

If you divide 8/9

the result is 0.8888888...
