Answer:

The number of distinct arrangements is <em>12600</em><em>.</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

This is a permutation type of question and therefore the number of distinguishable permutations is:

n!/(n₁! n₂! n₃! ... nₓ!)

where

  • n₁, n₂, n₃ ... is the number of arrangements for each object
  • n is the number of objects
  • nₓ is the number of arrangements for the last object

In this case

  • n₁ is the identical copies of Hamlet
  • n₂ is the identical copies of Macbeth
  • n₃ is the identical copies of Romeo and Juliet
  • nₓ = n₄ is the one copy of Midsummer's Night Dream

Therefore,

<em>Number of distinct arrangements =  10!/(4! × 3! × 2! × 1!)</em>

<em>                                                         = </em><em>12600 ways</em>

<em />

Thus, the number of distinct arrangements is <em>12600</em><em>.</em>

Help me from 6-9 (geometry)
elena55 [62]

Answer:

6) Two angles are called supplementary when their measures add up to 180 degrees. For example, two right angles are supplementary angles.

7) When the sum of two angles is equal to 90 degrees, they are called complementary angles. For example, 30 degrees and 60 degrees are complementary angles.

8) you have to plot the points on the graph and draw a line and label it with L at one point and M at another point.

9) x = 20

m < A = 65

m < B = 25

Step-by-step explanation:

9)

3x + 5 + 2x - 15 = 90

3x + 2x + 5 - 15 = 90

5x - 10 = 90

5x - 10 + 10 = 90 + 10

5x = 100

5 / 5x = 100 / 5

x = 20

A = 3x + 5

A = 3(20) + 5

A = 60 + 5

A = 65

B = 2x - 15

B = 2(20) - 15

B = 40 - 15

B = 25
