Answer:   10 cm

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

Short Piece: x

Second Piece: 2x

Third Piece: 2x + 6


Short + Second +  Third = 56

  x     +     2x      + 2x + 6 = 56

                             5x + 6 = 56

                             5x       = 50

                               x        = 10

A physics exam consists of 9 multiple-choice questions and 6 open-ended problems in which all work must be shown. If an examinee
Mariana [72]

Answer:

The questions and problem can be chosen in 1260 ways.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that, a physics exam consists of 6 open-ended problem and  9 multiple choice questions.

The order of choosing does not matter.

So,we use combination to find ways.

The ways to choose  6 multiple choice from 9 is= ^9C_6

                                                                              =\frac{9!}{6!(9-6)!}

                                                                              =84

The ways to 2 open-ended question from 6  is= ^6C_2

                                                                              =\frac{6!}{2!(6-2)!}

                                                                             =15

Since pick 6 multiple choice out of 9 and 2 open-ended question out of 6 both are independent we have multiply both to find required ways.

Total number of ways is =(84×15)

                                        =1260.
