The question is not complete because it is not written correctly

Complete Question:

The drama club is holding auditions for five different parts in a one act play. If 9 people audition, how many ways can the roles be assigned?

a. 362,880

b. 15,120

c. 126

d. 120

Answer:

b. 15,120

Step-by-step explanation:

In other to solve the question above, we would use the formula for permutation.

This is because when assigning 5 DIFFERENT roles to 9 people, the order of assigning the roles is important. The formula for permutation, is used when order is involved.

Permutation (n, r) = nPr = n!/(n - r)!

In the above question,

n = 9 people

r = 5 different parts

9P5 = 9!/(9 - 5)!

= 9!/4! = 9×8×7×6×5×4×3×2×1/ 4×3×2×1

= 362880/ 24

= 15,120

Therefore, the number of ways that the roles can be assigned is 15,120 ways

Darnell ran 550 yards in 3 minutes. At this rate, how many yards can he run in 6 minutes?​
Elan Coil [88]

Answer:

Darnell can run 1100 yards in 6 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

There are 2 ways you can solve this

Method 1: You would have to divide 550 by 3 which you would get about 183, (the exact answer is very long so I recommend using a calculator). Then you multiply that by 6 to get 1100.

Method 2: This one would probably be easier. Since 3 x 2 is 6 then you can multiply 550 x 2 to get 1100.

I hope this helps!

Part A:
<span>a system of inequalities that only contain points D and E in the overlapping shaded regions is
5y + 2x > 12
2y - x < 12

Part B:
To verify that points D and E are solutions to the system of inequalities, we plug in the coordinate points of points D and E into the system of ineaqualities.

Part C:
</span>To <span>identify the schools that Timothy is allowed to attend we plug in the coordinate values of the points to see which satisfies the inequality y < 3x - 3. Thus Timothy is allowed to attend schools C and F.</span>

  • Derivatives
  • Derivative Notation

Derivative Property [Multiplied Constant]:                                                           \displaystyle \frac{d}{dx} [cf(x)] = c \cdot f'(x)

Derivative Property [Addition/Subtraction]:                                                         \displaystyle \frac{d}{dx}[f(x) + g(x)] = \frac{d}{dx}[f(x)] + \frac{d}{dx}[g(x)]

Basic Power Rule:

  1. f(x) = cxⁿ
  2. f’(x) = c·nxⁿ⁻¹

Derivative Rule [Chain Rule]:                                                                                 \displaystyle \frac{d}{dx}[f(g(x))] =f'(g(x)) \cdot g'(x)

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following and are trying to find the second derivative at <em>x</em> = 2:

\displaystyle f(2) = 2

\displaystyle \frac{dy}{dx} = 6\sqrt{x^2 + 3y^2}

We can differentiate the 1st derivative to obtain the 2nd derivative. Let's start by rewriting the 1st derivative:

\displaystyle \frac{dy}{dx} = 6(x^2 + 3y^2)^\big{\frac{1}{2}}

When we differentiate this, we must follow the Chain Rule:                             \displaystyle \frac{d^2y}{dx^2} = \frac{d}{dx} \Big[ 6(x^2 + 3y^2)^\big{\frac{1}{2}} \Big] \cdot \frac{d}{dx} \Big[ (x^2 + 3y^2) \Big]

Use the Basic Power Rule:

\displaystyle \frac{d^2y}{dx^2} = 3(x^2 + 3y^2)^\big{\frac{-1}{2}} (2x + 6yy')

We know that y' is the notation for the 1st derivative. Substitute in the 1st derivative equation:

\displaystyle \frac{d^2y}{dx^2} = 3(x^2 + 3y^2)^\big{\frac{-1}{2}} \big[ 2x + 6y(6\sqrt{x^2 + 3y^2}) \big]

Simplifying it, we have:

\displaystyle \frac{d^2y}{dx^2} = 3(x^2 + 3y^2)^\big{\frac{-1}{2}} \big[ 2x + 36y\sqrt{x^2 + 3y^2} \big]

We can rewrite the 2nd derivative using exponential rules:

\displaystyle \frac{d^2y}{dx^2} = \frac{3\big[ 2x + 36y\sqrt{x^2 + 3y^2} \big]}{\sqrt{x^2 + 3y^2}}

To evaluate the 2nd derivative at <em>x</em> = 2, simply substitute in <em>x</em> = 2 and the value f(2) = 2 into it:

\displaystyle \frac{d^2y}{dx^2} \bigg| \limits_{x = 2} = \frac{3\big[ 2(2) + 36(2)\sqrt{2^2 + 3(2)^2} \big]}{\sqrt{2^2 + 3(2)^2}}

When we evaluate this using order of operations, we should obtain our answer:

\displaystyle \frac{d^2y}{dx^2} \bigg| \limits_{x = 2} = 219
