Answer:

24 possible outcomes

Step-by-step explanation:

Combination has to do with selection. For example, if r object is selected from a pool of n objects, the number if possible ways can be expressed according to the combination formula:

nCr = n!/(n-r)!r!

Applying this in question, if each student receives one of 4 calculator models and one of 3 types of ruler, the number of ways this can be done is:

4C1 × 3C1

4C1 = 4!/(4-1)!1! {If a student gets one calculator)

4C1 = 4×3×2/3×2

4C1 = 4ways

3C1 = 3!/(3-2)!1! {If a student gets a ruler}

3C1 = 3×2/1

3C1 = 6ways

Total number of possible outcomes if a student gets one ruler and one calculator will be 4×6 = 24ways

SOLVE x^4 − 15x^2 − 16 = 0 <br> What are the roots of the equation?
kakasveta [241]

Answer:

roots : 4, -4, i, -i

Step-by-step explanation:

This gets a bit tricky.

We have to substitude x^2 as u in this problem.

Now to rewrite x^4 − 15x^2 − 16 = 0 with u, we get

u^2 - 15u - 16 = 0

( u - 16) (u + 1)

U = 16

U = -1

<em>This is not the end of the problem. </em>

Now we have to substitute x^2 back to u.

x^2 = 16  --> we get the roots 4 and -4

x^2 = -1 --> we get the roots i and -i

HELP PLEASE I NEED HELP OH DEAR LORD

#5,

it says that the angle on top is 221, so you subtract that from 360,

360-221= the rest..... 139
 Now in that 139, you can see that there is a triangle with a right angle. so you can subtract 90 degrees from 139

139-90= 49
49 is the number you use to solve the rest.
3x + 4x = 7x
so 7x = 49
and then you divide 7 from both sides to isolate x, and you get your answer
