Answer:

a) 17,100,720

b) 4,717,440

c) 10,920

d) 2821

Step-by-step explanation:

14 juniors and 16 seniors = 30 people

a) From the 30 members, how many ways are there to arrange 5 members of the club in a line?

As it is a ordered arrangement

30.29.28.27.26 = 17,100,720

b) How many ways are there to arrange 5 members of the club in a line if there must be a senior at the beginning of the line and at the end of the line?

16.28.27.26.15 = 4,717,440

c) If the club sends 2 juniors and 2 seniors to the tournament, how many possible groupings are there?

Not ordered arrangement. And means that we need to multiply the results.

C₁₄,₂ * C₁₆,₂

C₁₄,₂ = <u>14.13.12!</u> = <u>14.13 </u>= 91

           12! 2!            2    

C₁₆,₂ = <u>16.15.14!</u> = <u>16.15 </u>= 120

           14! 2!            2    

C₁₄,₂ * C₁₆,₂ = 91.120 = 10,920

d) If the club sends either 4 juniors or 4 seniors, how many possible groupings are there?

Or means that we need to sum the results.

C₁₄,₄ + C₁₆,₄

C₁₄,₄ = <u>14.13.12.11.10!</u> = <u>14.13.12.11 </u>= 1001

                  10! 4!               4.3.2.1    

C₁₆,₄ = <u>16.15.14.13.12!</u> = <u>16.15.14.13 </u>= 1820

                  12! 4!               4.3.2.1    

C₁₄,₄ + C₁₆,₄ = 1001 + 1820 = 2821

<h3>Answer: 2.2 units</h3>

============================================

Explanation:

I'll define these point labels

  • B = Blake's starting position
  • F = finish line
  • C = the third unmarked point of the triangle

The locations of the points are

  • B = (-8,1)
  • C = (-6,-3)
  • F = (4,-2)

Use the distance formula to find the distance from B to C

B = (x_1,y_1) = (-8,1) \text{ and } C = (x_2,y_2) = (-6,-3)\\\\d = \sqrt{(x_1 - x_2)^2 + (y_1 - y_2)^2}\\\\d = \sqrt{(-8-(-6))^2 + (1-(-3))^2}\\\\d = \sqrt{(-8+6)^2 + (1+3)^2}\\\\d = \sqrt{(-2)^2 + (4)^2}\\\\d = \sqrt{4 + 16}\\\\d = \sqrt{20} \ \text{ ... exact distance}\\\\d \approx 4.47214 \ \ \text{... approximate distance}\\\\

Segment BC is roughly 4.47214 units long.

Following similar steps, you should find that segment CF is approximately 10.04988 units long.

If Blake doesn't take the shortcut, then he travels approximately BC+CF = 4.47214+10.04988 = 14.52202 units. This is the path from B to C to F in that order.

---------

Use the distance formula again to find the distance from B to F. This distance is about 12.36932 units. He travels this amount if he takes the shortcut.

Subtract this and the previous result we got

14.52202 - 12.36932 = 2.1527

That rounds to 2.2

This is the amount of distance he doesn't have to travel when he takes the shortcut.

In other words, the track is roughly 2.2 units shorter when taking the shortcut.

Side note: Replace "units" with whatever units you're working with (eg: feet or meters).

X+y=4<br> X-3y=12<br> Graph?
AlekseyPX
I'll solve it algebraically


x+y=4
x-3y=12

multiply first equatoin by -1 and add to second

-x-y=-4
<u>x-3y=12 +</u>
0x-4y=8


-4y=8
divide both sides by -4
y=-2

sub back

x+y=4
x+-2=4
add 2 to both sides
x=6

x=6
y=-2
