A conductor needs 5 cellists and 5 violinists to play at a diplomatic event. to do this, he ranks the orchestra's 10 cellists an
DaniilM [7]
Ranking is very critical in this problem. Therefore, the most applicable mathematical theory is permutations.

Ranking possible for the cellists:
Needed cellists = 5
Total available cellists = 10
Possible number of rankings = 10P5 = 10!/(10-5)! = 30240

Ranking possible for the violinists:
Needed violinists = 5
Total available = 16
Possible number of rankings = 16P5 = 16!/(16-5)! = 524160

Therefore,
Ratio of rankings (cellists to violinists) = 30240/524160 = 3/52

!!25 POINTS AND BRAINLIEST!! A recipe calls for 2 cups of pizza sauce. I only want 3/4 OF the full 2 cups. How will I figure out
Nutka1998 [239]

Mathematical Answer: 2cups*3/4 = 1 and 1/2 cups or 1.5 cups.

How to do it while cooking:

  1. Get out a container large enough to hold at least 4 cups sauce
  2. Get out a "1 cup" and "1/2 cup" measuring cup.
  3. Measure out 1 cup of sauce with the "1 cup" measuring cup.
  4. Measure out  1/2 of a cup of sauce with the '1/2 cup' measuring cup.
  5. pour both cups into the larger container.

And there you go you have 3/4 of 2 cups of sauce.

The bowling lanes charge an hourly fee for bowling and $2 to rent shoes for the day. Gerry rented shoes and bowled for 2 hours a
kodGreya [7K]

Answer:

d) f(x) = 5x + 2

Step-by-step explanation:

First we need to identify the variables and how they fit into the equation. in this case we know that the equation is f(x) = mx + b where f(x) is the total cost, m is the hourly cost, x is the number of hours bowled, and b is the price of the shoes.

Now, we need to solve for the hourly cost, so to do this we plug in all the known information to get 12 = m(2) + 2

To solve we need to isolate the variable by first subtracting 2 on both sides to get 10 = m(2) and then dividing both sides by 2 to get 5 = m.

Finally, since we now know that the hourly cost is $5 we can plug this information back into the equation to get f(x) = 5x + 2

What are the restrictions for a? 2a^2+a-15/5a^2+16a+3
koban [17]

ANSWER


The restrictions are

a\ne -3,a\ne -\frac{1}{5}


EXPLANATION


We were given the rational function,


\frac{2a^2+a-15}{5a^2+16a+3}


The function is defined for all values of a, except



5a^2+16a+3=0


This has become a quadratic trinomial, so we need to split the middle term.


We do that by multiplying the coefficient of x^2 which is 5 by the constant term which is 3. This gives us 15.


The factors of 15 that adds up to 16 are 1 and 15.


We use these factors to split the middle term.




5a^2+15a+a+3=0


We now factor to get,


5a(a+3)+1(a+3)=0


We factor further to get,


(a+3)(5a+1)=0



This implies that,


(a+3)=0,(5a+1)=0


This gives


a=-3,a=-\frac{1}{5}


These are the restrictions.
