Number of ways to select 3 books from 13 books for adoption is 286 .

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

A Permutation is an ordered Combination. When the order does matter it is a Permutation. There are basically two types of permutation:

  • Repetition is Allowed: such as the lock above. It could be "333".
  • No Repetition: for example the first three people in a running race. You can't be first and second.

Formula is given by:

nC_r= \frac{n!}{r! (n-r)!} , where n is the number of things to choose from,  and we choose r of them,  no repetitions,  order matters. Here , n=13 , r=3.

⇒ 13C_3 = \frac{13!}{3!(13-3)!}

⇒ 13C_3 = \frac{13!}{3!(10)!}

⇒ 13C_3 = \frac{13(12)(11)10!}{3(2)(1)(10)!}

⇒ 13C_3 = 13(2)(11)

⇒ 13 C_3 = 286

∴ Number of ways to select 3 books from 13 books for adoption is 286 .

Give brainliest! Right triangle ABC is on a coordinate plane. Segment AB is on the line y = 2 and is 3 units long. Point C is on
Anastasy [175]

Answer: y coordinate is 6

Step-by-step explanation:

6=1/2(3)(h)

If you solve for H then

h=4

So, add 4 to the line y=2

y=2+4

2+4= 6

Hence, the possible y coordinate of point C is 6

Hope this helped!

I would really appreciate if marked brainlest !

A ladder 15 feet long leans against the top of a structure at a 60 degree angle to the ground. What is the height of the buildin
Goshia [24]

Answer:

height of the building is 12.99 feet.

Step-by-step explanation:

given, try to analyse:

  • ladder 15 feet long.
  • 60 degree angle to the ground.

the height of the building is opposite to the angle 60° and given hypotenuse, the ladder of 15 feet long.

using sine rule:

sin(x) = \frac{opposite}{hypotenuse}

sin(60) = \frac{opposite}{15}

opposite = sin(60) *15

opposite = 12.99feet

Therefore the height of the building is 12.99 feet.

Plz help asap for brainiest
Sergio [31]

Answer: x = 16

Step-by-step explanation:

If RQ is the bisector, that means the angle is cut in half. Therefore angles PRQ and QRS are equal to each other.

4x+6 = 7x-42

subtract 7x from both sides

-3x+6 = -42

subtract 6 from both sides

-3x = -48

divide both sides by -3

x = 16
