Answer:

the cost of running the boarding

house for 600 students is N61,000

Step-by-step explanation:

Let C represents cost

K1 represents first constant

K2 represents second constant

C= k1+k2n

3500 = k1 + 25 k2............. Eqn(1)

6000= k1 + 50 k2 .............. Eqn(2)

Subtract eqn(1) from eqn(2)

2500= 25k2

K2= 2500/25

K2= 100

To get k1 from eqn(1)

3500 = k1 + 25 k2

Substitute the value of k2

3500 = k1 + 25 (100)

3500= k1 +2500

K1= 3500- 2500

K1= 1000

The equation connecting them;

C= 1000+ 100n

The cost of running the boarding

house for 600 students is

n= 600

C= 1000+ 100(600)

C= 1000+60000

C= N 61,0000

There are 12 members on the board of directors for the Newport General Hospital. If they must elect a chairperson, first vice ch

rosijanka [135]

Answer:

11880 different slates of candidates are possible.

Step-by-step explanation:

The order is important in this problem.

That is, John, Elisa, Laura and Rose means that John is the chairperson, Elisa the first vice chairperson, Laura the second vice chairperson and Rose the secretary. If we exchange John and Elisa, for example, it means that their roles also have changed.

So we use the permutations formula to solve this problem.

The number of possible permutations of x elements from a set of n elements is given by the following formula:

$P_{(n,x)} = \frac{n!}{(n-x)!}$

How many different slates of candidates are possible?

Four roles in a set of 12 members. So

$P_{(12,4)} = \frac{12!}{(12-4)!} = 11880$

11880 different slates of candidates are possible.

What is the formula for the perimeter of a semicircle

Rasek [7]

Answer:

The perimeter of a semicircle is the sum of the half of the circumference of the circle and diameter. As the perimeter of a circle is 2πr or πd. So, the perimeter of a semicircle is 1/2 (πd) + d or πr + 2r, where r is the radius.
