$\text {Number of ways} = \dfrac{17 \times 16 \times 15 \times 14 \times 13 \times 12}{1 \times 2 \times 3 \times 4 \times 5 \times 6}$

$\text {Number of ways} = \dfrac{8910720}{720}$

$\text {Number of ways} = 12376$

Answer:

$\text{Average rate}=\frac{\text{40 laps}}{\text{ hour}}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Please consider the complete question.

Sebastian swan laps every day in the community swimming pool. He swam 45 minutes each day, 5 days each week, for 12 weeks. In that time, he swam 1800 laps. What was his average rate in laps per hour?

Let us convert time taken into hours as:

$\text{Days}=5\times 12=60$

$\text{Minutes}=60\times 45$

1 hour = 60 minutes. To convert minutes into hours, we will divide total minutes by 60.

$\text{Hours}=\frac{60\times 45}{60}=45$

Now, we will divide 1800 by 45 to find average rate in laps per hour as:

$\text{Average rate}=\frac{\text{1800 laps}}{\text{45 hours}}$

$\text{Average rate}=\frac{\text{40 laps}}{\text{ hour}}$

Therefore, Sebastian's average rate is 40 laps per hour.

You and your friend play a game. You answer 80% of the questions correctly and your friend answers 0.60 of the questions correct

bezimeni [28]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Assuming both players can answer the same question, the minimum number of questions is the smallest number that when multiplied by either 0.60 or 0.80 yields a whole number.

Let x be the number of questions, solving by trial and error:

$if\ x=2\\x*0.8=1.6\\x*0.6=1.2\\\\if\ x=3\\x*0.8=2.4\\x*0.6=1.8\\\\if\ x=4\\x*0.8=3.2\\x*0.6=2.4\\\\if\ x=5\\x*0.8=4\\x*0.6=3\\\\$

Therefore, the minimum number of questions in the game is 5.

Answer:

12.699

Step-by-step explanation:

i think if you do 26-22.4, you get the leg of the small triangle which is 3.6

then do Pythagorean theorem

3.6^2 + x^2 = 13.2^2

12.96 +x^2 = 174.24

174.24-12.96

x^2 = 161.28

take square root

x = 12.699
