If n is a positive integer, how many 5-tuples of integers from 1 through n can be formed in which the elements of the 5-tuple ar

e written in increasing order but are not necessarily distinct? In other words, how many 5-tuples of integers (h, i, j, k, m) are there with 1 ≤ h ≤ i ≤ j ≤ k ≤ m ≤ n? As in Example 9.6.3, you can represent any ordered 5-tuple of integers (h, i, j, k, m) with 1 ≤ h ≤ i ≤ j ≤ k ≤ m ≤ n as a string of n − 1 vertical bars and 5 crosses, with the position of crosses indicating which 5 integers from 1 to n are included in the 5-tuple. Thus, the number of 5-tuples is the same as the number of strings of n+4 vertical bars and 5 crosses, which is n(n+1)(n+2)(n+3)(n+4) 120​ .

Answer:

\frac{(n+4)*(n+3)*(n+2)*(n+1)*n}{120}

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

5 tuples implies that:

n = 5

(h,i,j,k,m) implies that:

r = 5

Required

How many 5-tuples of integers (h, i, j, k,m) are there such thatn\ge h\ge i\ge j\ge k\ge m\ge 1

From the question, the order of the integers h, i, j, k and m does not matter. This implies that, we make use of combination to solve this problem.

Also considering that repetition is allowed:  This implies that, a number can be repeated in more than 1 location

So, there are n + 4 items to make selection from

The selection becomes:

^{n}C_r => ^{n + 4}C_5

^{n + 4}C_5 = \frac{(n+4)!}{(n+4-5)!5!}

^{n + 4}C_5 = \frac{(n+4)!}{(n-1)!5!}

Expand the numerator

^{n + 4}C_5 = \frac{(n+4)!(n+3)*(n+2)*(n+1)*n*(n-1)!}{(n-1)!5!}

^{n + 4}C_5 = \frac{(n+4)*(n+3)*(n+2)*(n+1)*n}{5!}

^{n + 4}C_5 = \frac{(n+4)*(n+3)*(n+2)*(n+1)*n}{5*4*3*2*1}

^{n + 4}C_5 = \frac{(n+4)*(n+3)*(n+2)*(n+1)*n}{120}

Deffense [45]

Answer:

6.0 x 10^2

Step-by-step explanation:

(7.3 X 10) + (2.4 X 10^7)

(4 X 10^4)

= 73 + 24000000

40000

= 24000073

andy constructed a triangle angle 1 and 2 are the same but angle 3 has a measurement of 100 degrees what is the measurement of a
attashe74 [19]
The triangle has one angle of 100 degrees, and the other two are equal. 
We know that the angles of a  triangle always add up to 180. To find the measurement of angle 1 and 2, let's solve for this equation. 
2x + 100 = 180, where x=angle 1 = angle 2. Subtract 100 from both sides
2x = 80                                                           Divide both sides by 2
x = 40

aleksley [76]

The ratio of circumference to diameter is independent of the radius.



Defining C=circumference, r=radius, D=diameter =  2r



Circumference = C = 2 &pi; r = &pi; D  


=> 


ratio of circumference / diameter


= C/D = &pi;
