Mathematics
1 answer:
cricket20 [7]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

126

Step-by-step explanation:

Total number of apples = 9

Number of favourite Mathematics lecturers = 5

To find number of ways in which 9 (identical) apples can be given to your 5 favourite Mathematics lecturers, find C(9,5)

Combination refer to selection of items such that order does not matter.

Use C(n,p)=\frac{n!}{p!(n-p)!}

Put n=9,p=5

C(9,5)=\frac{9!}{5!(9-5)!}\\=\frac{9!}{5!4!}\\=\frac{9(8)(7)(6)5!}{5!4!} \\=\frac{9(8)(7)(6)}{4(3)(2)(1)}\\=126

Given a right triangle with legs a, b and hypotenuse c, solve for a if b= 20 and c= 29
pantera1 [17]

Answer:

C) 21

Step-by-step explanation:

a² + 20² = 29²       Use Pythagorean Theorem to solve for a

a² + 400 = 841       Solve for the exponents

     - 400 - 400      Subtract 400 from both sides

a² = 441                  Take the square root of both sides

a = 21

Does the table represent a function if the input is 1,2,3,4 and the output is 3,6,11,18?
skelet666 [1.2K]
Yes..it does. To be a function, all the inputs (x's) have to be different numbers...there can be no repeating x's...there can be repeating outputs (y's)...just not the x's
