Answer: 5,760

Step-by-step explanation:

\\It was given that each dog is distinct from other dogs and each cat is distinct from other cats, Also from the hint given, the First position is for the dogs. \\Let D represent the dogs and C represent the Cat , then we have

\\D C D C D C D C D D   or

\\D  D C D C D C D C D  or

\\D C DD C D C D C D or

\\D C D C D D C D C D or

\\D C D C D C DD C D

\\Each of the arrangements above  could be done in

\\2 x 4! x 4!  ( it is constant that D is starting , so I am only left with the arrangement of the remaining 5 D's  , out of the remaining 5 D's it is also constant that tow of them will be together and this could be done in 2 ways, so I have 4! left for the D's and 4! also for the C's )

\\= 2 x 24 x 24

\\ = 1 , 152

\\The total arrangement = 5 x 1 , 152

\\= 5,7 60 ways

The base of a triangle exceeds the height by 9 centimeters. If the area is 56 square centimeters, find the length of the base an
shepuryov [24]

Answer:

The height of the triangle is 7cm and the base is 16cm

Step-by-step explanation:

First of all we have to know the formula to calculate area of ​​a triangle

a = area = 56

b = base

h = heigth

a = (b * h)/2

we replace the known values and we make 2 equations

56cm² = (b * h)/2

b = h + 9cm

we replace b by (h + 9cm) in the first equation

56cm² = (h + 9cm * h)/2

56cm² * 2 = h² + 9h

0 = h² + 9h - 112cm²

we use bhaskara formula:

(-b (±) √ (b² - 4ac) ) / 2a

we replace with the known values

h = (-9 (±) √ (9² - 4*1*(-112) ) ) / 2*1

h = (-9 (±) √ (81 + 448) ) ) / 2

h = (-9 (±) √529) /2

h = (-9 (±) 23)/2

h1 = (-9 + 23) / 2

h1 = 14 / 2

h1 = 7

h2 = (-9 - 23) / 2

h2 = -32 / 2

h2 = -16

The height of the triangle is 7cm and the base is 16cm
