The first book you select can be any one of 700.
. . . For each of those ...
The second book can be any one of the other 699.
. . . For each of those ...
The third book can be any one of the remining 698.
The total number of ways to gather three books from the shelves into your hands is (700 · 699 · 698) = <em>341,531,400 ways</em> .
<em>BUT ...</em>
When you bring three books to the check-out counter, Marian the Librarian doesn't know in which order you took them down off the shelves. You could have gathered the same three books in (3 · 2 · 1) = 6 different ways.
So, even though there are 341,531,400 ways to<em> </em>gather up three books, there are only (341,531,400 / 6) = 56,921,900 different GROUPS of three books that you can choose to take home.
Answer:
800. Here's why:
Step-by-step explanation:
This indicats that 440 students make up 55% of the 6th grade population. We can write this as
55/440.
We also know that 'x' total students make up 100% of the 6th-grade population, so we can write this as
100/x.
55/440 must be equal to 100/x. When cross multiplied, it becomes 50x=44000. If we divided each side by 50, we'll find that x=880. Therefore, there are 800 6th graders
Answer:
(x-2)²/100 + (y+3)²/64 = 1
Step-by-step explanation:
C (2,-3): h=2 k=-3
semimajor axis (CV): a=12-2=10
center-foci: c=8-2=6
semi minor axis: b² = a²-c²= 100 - 36 = 64
equation: (x-h)²/a² + (y-k)²/b² = 1
(x-2)²/100 + (y+3)²/64 = 1
Answer:
the area of a rectangle with a length of 5 and a width of 5
Step-by-step explanation:
Area of a rectangle is found by multiplying length and width. When those values are the same, the result is a perfect square.
The area of a rectangle with a length of 5 and a width of 5 is a perfect square.
Most earthquakes occur along the edge of the oceanic and continental plates. So, when they slide past each other. Many think it's when they pull apart but that has mixed results.
