The numbers of choices in each category are multiplied together. We assume the order of paint choices matters: using color 1 in area A and color 2 in area B is not the same as using color 2 in area A and color 1 in area B.

P(7,2)*4*3*2 = 42*4*3*2 = 1008 ways

_____
P(n, k) = n!/(n-k)!
P(7, 2) = 7*6 = 42

Choose all the functions that give the sequence:

TEA [102]

Hence, the functions that produce given sequence are:

f(n) = 2n + 1

f(n) = 2(n − 1) + 3

Further explanation:

We will put n=1,2,3,4,5 to find which functions give the given sequence

f(n) = 2n − 1

Putting values of n

$f(1)=2(1)-1=2-1=1\\f(2)=2(2)-1=4-1=3\\f(3)=2(3)-1=6-1=5$

This function doesn't generate the given sequence

f(n) = 2n + 1

Putting values of n

$f(1)=2(1)+1=2+1=3\\f(2)=2(2)+1=4+1=5\\f(3)=2(3)+1=6+1=7\\f(4)=2(4)+1=8+1=9\\f(5)=2(5)+1=10+1=11$

This function generates the given sequence.

f(n) = 2(n − 1) − 3

Putting values of n

$f(1) = 2(1 -1) -3=2(0)-3=0-3=-3\\f(2) = 2(2 -1) -3=2(1)-3=2-3=-1\\f(3) = 2(3-1) -3=2(2)-3=4-3=1$

This function doesn't generate the given sequence

f(n) = 2(n − 1) + 3

Putting values of n

$f(1) = 2(1 - 1) + 3=2(0)+3=0+3=3\\f(2) = 2(2 - 1) + 3=2(1)+3=2+3=5\\f(3) = 2(3 - 1) + 3=2(2)+3=4+3=7\\f(4) = 2(4 - 1) + 3=2(3)+3=6+3=9$

Hence, the functions that produce given sequence are:

f(n) = 2n + 1

f(n) = 2(n − 1) + 3

If the scale factor of my dilation is 4 , what is happening to my shape ?

anygoal [31]

Answer:

The shape is the same

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

A dilation is a non rigid transformation, that change the size but not the shape of the original figure

If the dilation scale factor is 4, the figure size increases by 4, but the shape remains the same

For questions 13 – 15, find x so that q || r. State the converse used.

Grace [21]

Answer:

13. x = 7 ; Converse : Alternate interior angles are equal .

14. x=12; Converse used : Linear pair

15. x = 23; Converse: Corresponding angles are equal

Step-by-step explanation:

13.

Refer the attached figure

Given: q || r

$\angle CBE =\angle DEB$ (Alternate interior angles )

So, 15x+3=108

15x=108-3

15x=105

$x=\frac{105}{15}$

x=7

So, x = 7 ; Converse : Alternate interior angles are equal .

14.

Refer the attached figure

Given q||r

$\angle PQT = \angle STQ$ (Alternate interior angles

So, $\angle PQT = \angle STQ=11x-28$

Now $\angle UTQ + \angle STQ = 180^{\circ}$ (Linear pair)

So,7x-8+11x-28=180

18x-36= 180

18x=216

$x=\frac{216}{18}$

x=12

So, x=12; Converse used : Linear pair

15.

Refer the attached figure

Given q||r

$\angle BDC+\angle CDE = 90+2x$

$\angle BDE=\angle PBC$ (corresponding angles)

90+2x=5x+21

90-21=5x-2x

69=3x

23=x

So, x = 23; Converse: Corresponding angles are equal
