Answer:

The people can sit in 1,152 possible ways if all men must sit together and all women must sit​ together.

Explanation:

The 4 men must sit together.

Number of ways to arrange the 4 men together

= 4! = 4 x 3 x 2 x 1 = 24

Similarly, the 4 women must sit together.

Number of ways to arrange the 4 women together

= 4! = 4 x 3 x 2 x 1 = 24

Now the 8 chairs are placed in a row. There are 2 ways to arrange the men and women: either the men must sit in the first 4 chairs and women in the last 4 chairs, or the women must sit in the first 4 chairs and men in the last 4 chairs.

Hence, total number of ways to arrange the 8 people

= 24 x 24 x 2

= 1,152

There is a quadrilateral MNPQ in which side MN is congruent to side PQ and side NP is parallel to side MQ. The diagonal MP and t
8_murik_8 [283]

Answer: QN = 12

Step-by-step explanation: This quadrilateral is a paralelogram because its 2 opposite sides (NP and MQ) are parallel and the other 2 (MN and PQ) are congruent.

In paralelogram, diagonals bisect each other, which means QR = RN.

If QR = RN:

QR = 6

Then,

QN = QR + RN

QN = 6 + 6

QN = 12

<u>The diagonal QN of quadrilateral MNPQ is </u><u>QN = 12</u><u>.</u>

The base of a rectangular prism is 5.4 centimeters long and 4.9 centimeters wide. It is 3.8 centimeters tall. What is the volume
lorasvet [3.4K]
So, We Need To Examine The Problem. So, We Know That We Need To Find The Volume Of A Rectangular Prism. We Also Know That The Dimensions Are 4.9 • 3.8 • 5.4.
So, We Need To Remember The Formula For Volume Of A Rectangular Prism. 
V = B • W • H
So, we need to plug in the known values.
V = 4.9 • 3.8<span> • 5.4.
So, Lets Solve.
4.9 • 3.8 = 18.62
18.62 * 5.4 = 100.548 cm²
Now We Have:
V = 100.548cm²
It Rounds To 100.5cm²
