Place the midpoint of the protractor on the VERTEX of the angle.

Line up one side of the angle with the zero line of the protractor (where you see the number 0).

Read the degrees where the other side crosses the number scale.

hoped it helped :)

Let C(n, k) = the number of k-membered subsets of an n-membered set. Find (a) C(6, k) for k = 0,1,2,...,6 (b) C(7, k) for k = 0,

vladimir1956 [14]

Answer:

(a) $C(6,0) = 1$ , $C(6,1) = 6$ , $C(6,2) = 15$ , $C(6,3) = 20$ , $C(6,4) = 15$ , $C(6,5) = 6$ , $C(6,6) = 1$ .

(b) $C(7,0) = 1$ , $C(7,1) = 7$ , $C(7,2) = 21$ , $C(7,3) = 35$ , $C(7,4) = 35$ , $C(7,5) = 21$ , $C(7,6) = 7$ , $C(7,7)=1$ .

Step-by-step explanation:

In this exercise we only need to recall the formula for C(n,k):

$C(n,k) = \frac{n!}{k!(n-k)!}$

where the symbol $n!$ is the factorial and means

$n! = 1\cdot 2\cdot 3\cdot 4\cdtos (n-1)\cdot n$ .

By convention 0!=1. The most important property of the factorial is $n!=(n-1)!\cdot n$ , for example 3!=1*2*3=6.

(a) The explanations to the solutions is just the calculations.

$C(6,0) = \frac{6!}{0!(6-0)!} = \frac{6!}{6!} = 1$

$C(6,1) = \frac{6!}{1!(6-1)!} = \frac{6!}{5!} = \frac{5!\cdot 6}{5!} = 6$

$C(6,2) = \frac{6!}{2!(6-2)!} = \frac{6!}{2\cdot 4!} = \frac{5!\cdot 6}{2\cdot 4!} = \frac{4!\cdot 5\cdot 6}{2\cdot 4!} = \frac{5\cdot 6}{2} = 15$

$C(6,3) = \frac{6!}{3!(6-3)!} = \frac{6!}{3!\cdot 3!} = \frac{5!\cdot 6}{6\cdot 6} = \frac{5!}{6} = \frac{120}{6} = 20$

$C(6,4) = \frac{6!}{4!(6-4)!} = \frac{6!}{4!\cdot 2!} = frac{5!\cdot 6}{2\cdot 4!} = \frac{4!\cdot 5\cdot 6}{2\cdot 4!} = \frac{5\cdot 6}{2} = 15$

$C(6,5) = \frac{6!}{5!(6-5)!} = \frac{6!}{5!} = \frac{5!\cdot 6}{5!} = 6$

$C(6,6) = \frac{6!}{6!(6-6)!} = \frac{6!}{6!} = 1$ .

(b) The explanations to the solutions is just the calculations.

$C(7,0) = \frac{7!}{0!(7-0)!} = \frac{7!}{7!} = 1$

$C(7,1) = \frac{7!}{1!(7-1)!} = \frac{7!}{6!} = \frac{6!\cdot 7}{6!} = 7$

$C(7,2) = \frac{7!}{2!(7-2)!} = \frac{7!}{2\cdot 5!} = \frac{6!\cdot 7}{2\cdot 5!} = \frac{5!\cdot 6\cdot 7}{2\cdot 5!} = \frac{6\cdot 7}{2} = 21$

$C(7,3) = \frac{7!}{3!(7-3)!} = \frac{7!}{3!\cdot 4!} = \frac{6!\cdot 7}{6\cdot 4!} = \frac{5!\cdot 6\cdot 7}{6\cdot 4!} = \frac{120\cdot 7}{24} = 35$

$C(7,4) = \frac{7!}{4!(7-4)!} = \frac{6!\cdot 7}{4!\cdot 3!} = frac{5!\cdot 6\cdot 7}{4!\cdot 6} = \frac{120\cdot 7}{24} = 35$

$C(7,5) = \frac{7!}{5!(7-2)!} = \frac{7!}{5!\cdot 2!} = 21$

$C(7,6) = \frac{7!}{6!(7-6)!} = \frac{7!}{6!} = \frac{6!\cdot 7}{6!} = 7$

$C(7,7) = \frac{7!}{7!(7-7)!} = \frac{7!}{7!} = 1$

For all the calculations just recall that 4! =24 and 5!=120.

6 times a number is 27 less than the square of that number. Find the positive solution.

Verdich [7]

Let x = your number.

6x = x^2 - 27. Subtract 6x from each side.

0 = x^2 - 6x - 27. Factor

0 = (x-9) (x+3). Set each term equal to zero

(x+3) = 0. Subtract 3 from each side.

x = -3. This is the negative solution.

(x-9) = 0. Add 9 to each side.

x = 9. This is the positive solution.

Step-by-step explanation:

I multiplied the two binomials at the top to get 6x^2 + x -2 and I divided it by 24x^2 - 4x - 8 and simplified it to get 1/4x^2 - 1/4x - 1/4
