Answer:
The members of the cabinet can be appointed in 121,080,960 different ways.
Step-by-step explanation:
The rank is important(matters), which means that the order in which the candidates are chosen is important. That is, if we exchange the position of two candidates, it is a new outcome. So we use the permutations formula to solve this quesiton.
Permutations formula:
The number of possible permutations of x elements from a set of n elements is given by the following formula:

If there are 14 eligible candidates for these positions (where rank matters), how many different ways can the members of the cabinet be appointed?
Permutations of 8 from a set of 14. So

The members of the cabinet can be appointed in 121,080,960 different ways.
We need to multiply the factors (x - 2) and (x^2 + 9x + 10) to see if the product is the original expression given.
(x - 2)(x^2 + 9x + 10)
x^3 + 9x^2 + 10x - 2x^2 - 18x - 20
x^3 + 7x^2 - 8x - 20.
Since the product just found is not the original expression given, Jimmy is wrong.
I will complete the work on paper by synthetic division and post my answer.
After using synthetic division, the correct quotient is x^2 + 9x + 20.
Answer: $7.6502
Step-by-step explanation:
Grape cost $1.19 per pound. 3.16 pounds are bought. The total amount paid for grape will be:
= $1.19 × 3.16
= $3.7604
Peaches cost $1.29 per pound. 1.35 pounds are bought. The total amount paid for peaches will be:
= $1.29 × 1.35
= $1.7415
Peers cost $0.99 per pound. 2.17 pounds are bought. The total amount paid for pears will be:
= $0.99 × 2.17
= $2.1483
Total bill paid will be:
= $3.7604 + $1.7415 + $2.1483
= $7.6502
Let

be the amount of time it takes to perform an arm routine and

be the amount of time it takes to perform an abdominal routine. We see:


Subtracting the second equation from the first gives

. Substituting gives

, so

and

.
Thus, an arm routine takes ten minutes and an abdominal routine takes thirty minutes.
Answer:
(a, a)
Step-by-step explanation:
actually there are two cases, don't have intersection and have. if have intersection, then they intersect at line y = x or point (a, a) by definition of inverse function.
