X/3 -6 =y<br><br> Solve for x

Paul [167]

Answer:

x= 3(y+6) or x = 3y + 18

Step-by-step explanation:

get the "x" by itself.

so first +6 on both sides of the equation to make it x/3=y+6

then multiply both sides by 3 to make it x=(y+6)*3

If n is a positive integer, how many 5-tuples of integers from 1 through n can be formed in which the elements of the 5-tuple ar

Oksana_A [137]

Answer:

$n + 4 {n \choose 2} + 6 {n \choose 3} + 4 {n \choose 4} + {n \choose 5}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Lets divide it in cases, then sum everything

Case (1): All 5 numbers are different

In this case, the problem is reduced to count the number of subsets of cardinality 5 from a set of cardinality n. The order doesnt matter because once we have two different sets, we can order them descendently, and we obtain two different 5-tuples in decreasing order.

The total cardinality of this case therefore is the Combinatorial number of n with 5, in other words, the total amount of possibilities to pick 5 elements from a set of n.

${n \choose 5 } = \frac{n!}{5!(n-5)!}$

Case (2): 4 numbers are different

We start this case similarly to the previous one, we count how many subsets of 4 elements we can form from a set of n elements. The answer is the combinatorial number of n with 4 ${n \choose 4} .$

We still have to localize the other element, that forcibly, is one of the four chosen. Therefore, the total amount of possibilities for this case is multiplied by those 4 options.

The total cardinality of this case is $4 * {n \choose 4} .$

Case (3): 3 numbers are different

As we did before, we pick 3 elements from a set of n. The amount of possibilities is ${n \choose 3} .$

Then, we need to define the other 2 numbers. They can be the same number, in which case we have 3 possibilities, or they can be 2 different ones, in which case we have ${3 \choose 2 } = 3$ possibilities. Therefore, we have a total of 6 possibilities to define the other 2 numbers. That multiplies by 6 the total of cases for this part, giving a total of $6 * {n \choose 3}$

Case (4): 2 numbers are different

We pick 2 numbers from a set of n, with a total of ${n \choose 2}$ possibilities. We have 4 options to define the other 3 numbers, they can all three of them be equal to the biggest number, there can be 2 equal to the biggest number and 1 to the smallest one, there can be 1 equal to the biggest number and 2 to the smallest one, and they can all three of them be equal to the smallest number.

The total amount of possibilities for this case is

$4 * {n \choose 2}$

Case (5): All numbers are the same

This is easy, he have as many possibilities as numbers the set has. In other words, n

Conclussion

By summing over all 5 cases, the total amount of possibilities to form 5-tuples of integers from 1 through n is

$n + 4 {n \choose 2} + 6 {n \choose 3} + 4 {n \choose 4} + {n \choose 5}$

I hope that works for you!

17.253 to the nearest tenth

Vlad1618 [11]

Answer:

17.3

Step-by-step explanation:

tens ones. tenths hundredths thousandths

1 7 . 2 5 3

We are rounding to the nearest tenth

We are rounding the 2 so we look at the 5. If it is 5 or above we round up.

Since it is, we will round the 2 to a 3

Given the circle with the equation (x + 1)2 + y2 = 36, determine the location of each point with respect to the graph of the cir

kati45 [8]

$\bf \textit{equation of a circle}\\\\ 
(x- h)^2+(y- k)^2= r^2
\qquad 
center~~(\stackrel{}{ h},\stackrel{}{ k})\qquad \qquad 
radius=\stackrel{}{ r}\\\\
-------------------------------\\\\
(x+1)^2+y^2=36\implies [x-(\stackrel{h}{-1})]^2+[y-\stackrel{k}{0}]^2=\stackrel{r}{6^2}~~~~
\begin{cases}
\stackrel{center}{(-1,0)}\\
\stackrel{radius}{6}
\end{cases}$

so, that's the equation of the circle, and that's its center, any point "ON" the circle, namely on its circumference, will have a distance to the center of 6 units, since that's the radius.

$\bf ~~~~~~~~~~~~\textit{distance between 2 points}
\\\\
(\stackrel{x_1}{-1}~,~\stackrel{y_1}{0})\qquad 
A(\stackrel{x_2}{-1}~,~\stackrel{y_2}{1})\qquad \qquad 
% distance value
d = \sqrt{( x_2- x_1)^2 + ( y_2- y_1)^2}
\\\\\\
\stackrel{distance}{d}=\sqrt{[-1-(-1)]^2+(1-0)^2}\implies d=\sqrt{(-1+1)^2+1^2}
\\\\\\
d=\sqrt{0+1}\implies d=1$

well, the distance from the center to A is 1, namely is "inside the circle".

$\bf ~~~~~~~~~~~~\textit{distance between 2 points}
\\\\
(\stackrel{x_1}{-1}~,~\stackrel{y_1}{0})\qquad 
B(\stackrel{x_2}{-1}~,~\stackrel{y_2}{6})\\\\\\
\stackrel{distance}{d}=\sqrt{[-1-(-1)]^2+(6-0)^2}\implies d=\sqrt{(-1+1)^2+6^2}
\\\\\\
d=\sqrt{0+36}\implies d=6$

notice, the distance to B is exactly 6, and you know what that means.

$\bf ~~~~~~~~~~~~\textit{distance between 2 points}
\\\\
(\stackrel{x_1}{-1}~,~\stackrel{y_1}{0})\qquad 
C(\stackrel{x_2}{4}~,~\stackrel{y_2}{-8})
\\\\\\
\stackrel{distance}{d}=\sqrt{[4-(-1)]^2+[-8-0]^2}\implies d=\sqrt{(4+1)^2+(-8)^2}
\\\\\\
d=\sqrt{25+64}\implies d=\sqrt{89}\implies d\approx 9.43398$

notice, C is farther than the radius 6, meaning is outside the circle, hiking about on the plane.
