Answer:

a) rCn = 1176

b) 2352

Step-by-step explanation:

a)Each committee should be formed with 3 members ( no two members could be of the same state) then

Let´s  fix a senator for any of the 50 states so in the new condition we need to combined 49 senators in groups of 2 then

rCn =  n! / (n - r )! *r!

rCn =  49!/ (49 - 2)!*2!

rCn =  49*48*47! / 47!*2!

rCn = 49*48 /2

rCn = 1176

So we can choose in 1176 different ways a senator for a given state

b) To answer this question we have to note, that, 1176 is the number of ways a committee can be formed with senators of different sate (taking just one senator for state ) if we have 2 senators we need to multiply that figure by 2.

1176*2 = 2352

Write the domain and range as inequalities.
Andrews [41]

Answer:

  • domain: -∞ < x < ∞
  • range: -2 ≤ y < ∞

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Domain</u>

The domain is the horizontal extent of the function, the set of input values for which it is defined. A parabola that opens up or down is defined for all x values, so its domain is ...

  -∞ < x < ∞ . . . . . . (-∞, ∞) in interval notation

__

<u>Range</u>

The range is the vertical extent of the function, the set of output values it produces. The vertex of the parabola is one extreme of the range. Depending on the direction it opens, the other extreme will be +∞ or -∞. The range includes the y-value of the vertex. Here, the range is ...

  -2 ≤ y < ∞ . . . . . . [-2, ∞) in interval notation

Find the vertex for the parabola given by the function ƒ(x) = −3x^2 − 6x.
telo118 [61]

Answer:

B) (−1, 3)  

Step-by-step explanation:

The standard form of a quadratic function is  

y = ax² + bx + c

The vertex form of a parabola is

y = a(x - h)² + k

where (h, k) is the vertex of the parabola.

h = -b/(2a) and k = f(h)

In your equation, ƒ(x) = −3x² − 6x

a = -3; b = -6; c = 0

Calculate h

h = -(-6)/2(-3)]

h = 6/(-6)

h = -1

Calculate k

k = -3(-1)² -6(-1)

k = -3 + 6

k = 3

So, h = -1, k = 3, a = -3

The vertex form of the equation is  f(x) = -3(x + 1)² + 3.

The vertex is at (-1, 3).

The figure below shows the graph of ƒ(x) = −3x² − 6x  with the vertex

at (-1, 3).

What is 6/100 + 2/10
Andreyy89

Answer:

\frac{26}{100}

Step-by-step explanation:

\frac{6}{100} can stay untouched, but \frac{2}{10} has to be changed to \frac{20}{100}. Now that they have they have the same denominator, you can add them. \frac{6}{100} + \frac{20}{100} = \frac{26}{100}, which can be simplified, which is \frac{13}{50}.
