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
Mathematical Answer: 2cups*3/4 = 1 and 1/2 cups or 1.5 cups.
How to do it while cooking:
- Get out a container large enough to hold at least 4 cups sauce
- Get out a "1 cup" and "1/2 cup" measuring cup.
- Measure out 1 cup of sauce with the "1 cup" measuring cup.
- Measure out 1/2 of a cup of sauce with the '1/2 cup' measuring cup.
- pour both cups into the larger container.
And there you go you have 3/4 of 2 cups of sauce.

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

The restrictions are

EXPLANATION
We were given the rational function,

The function is defined for all values of a, except

This has become a quadratic trinomial, so we need to split the middle term.
We do that by multiplying the coefficient of
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.

We now factor to get,

We factor further to get,

This implies that,

This gives

These are the restrictions.
