Which set of ordered pairs contains only points that are on the graph of the function y=12-3×?

irina [24]

Y= 12 -3x so if you take x as 0 y=12 x=1 y=9 x=2 y=6

(0, 12) (1,9), (2,6) are on the graph

Suppose the system of linear equations has no solution. Which is NOT a possible value of the constant for the second equation?

Tom [10]

Answer:

A) 5

Step-by-step explanation:

The coefficients of the second equation are 1/3 of those of the first equation. If the constant of the second equation is also 1/3 of the constant of the first equation, then the equations are <em>dependent</em>, and will have an infinite number of solutions.

The constant must be something other than 1/3·15 = 5 to make the equations <em>inconsistent</em>, having no solutions.

2. In how many ways can 3 different novels, 2 different mathematics books and 5 different chemistry books be arranged on a books

insens350 [35]

The number of ways of the books can be arranged are illustrations of permutations.

When the books are arranged in any order, the number of arrangements is 3628800
When the mathematics book must not be together, the number of arrangements is 2903040
When the novels must be together, and the chemistry books must be together, the number of arrangements is 17280
When the mathematics books must be together, and the novels must not be together, the number of arrangements is 302400

The given parameters are:

$\mathbf{Novels = 3}$

$\mathbf{Mathematics = 2}$

$\mathbf{Chemistry = 5}$

<u />

<u>(a) The books in any order</u>

First, we calculate the total number of books

$\mathbf{n = Novels + Mathematics + Chemistry}$

$\mathbf{n = 3 + 2 + 5}$

$\mathbf{n = 10}$

The number of arrangement is n!:

So, we have:

$\mathbf{n! = 10!}$

$\mathbf{n! = 3628800}$

<u>(b) The mathematics book, not together</u>

There are 2 mathematics books.

If the mathematics books, must be together

The number of arrangements is:

$\mathbf{Maths\ together = 2 \times 9!}$

Using the complement rule, we have:

$\mathbf{Maths\ not\ together = Total - Maths\ together}$

This gives

$\mathbf{Maths\ not\ together = 3628800 - 2 \times 9!}$

$\mathbf{Maths\ not\ together = 2903040}$

<u>(c) The novels must be together and the chemistry books, together</u>

We have:

$\mathbf{Novels = 3}$

$\mathbf{Chemistry = 5}$

First, arrange the novels in:

$\mathbf{Novels = 3!\ ways}$

Next, arrange the chemistry books in:

$\mathbf{Chemistry = 5!\ ways}$

Now, the 5 chemistry books will be taken as 1; the novels will also be taken as 1.

Literally, the number of books now is:

$\mathbf{n =Mathematics + 1 + 1}$

$\mathbf{n =2 + 1 + 1}$

$\mathbf{n =4}$

So, the number of arrangements is:

$\mathbf{Arrangements = n! \times 3! \times 5!}$

$\mathbf{Arrangements = 4! \times 3! \times 5!}$

$\mathbf{Arrangements = 17280}$

<u>(d) The mathematics must be together and the chemistry books, not together</u>

We have:

$\mathbf{Mathematics = 2}$

$\mathbf{Novels = 3}$

$\mathbf{Chemistry = 5}$

First, arrange the mathematics in:

$\mathbf{Mathematics = 2!}$

Literally, the number of chemistry and mathematics now is:

$\mathbf{n =Chemistry + 1}$

$\mathbf{n =5 + 1}$

$\mathbf{n =6}$

So, the number of arrangements of these books is:

$\mathbf{Arrangements = n! \times 2!}$

$\mathbf{Arrangements = 6! \times 2!}$

Now, there are 7 spaces between the chemistry and mathematics books.

For the 3 novels not to be together, the number of arrangement is:

$\mathbf{Arrangements = ^7P_3}$

So, the total arrangement is:

$\mathbf{Total = 6! \times 2!\times ^7P_3}$

$\mathbf{Total = 6! \times 2!\times 210}$

$\mathbf{Total = 302400}$
