Answer:

(a) 3628800 ways

(b) 17280 ways

(c) 120960 ways

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Novels = 5

Maths = 4

Biology = 1

Total = 10

Solving (a): Arrangement with no restriction.

We simply count each book with no restriction. i.e. 10 books

So, the number of arrangement is:

Arrangement =10!

Arrangement =10*9*8*7*6*5*4*3*2*1

Arrangement =3628800

Solving (b): Maths book together and Novels together

First, arrange the 4 maths books as:

Maths = 4!

Next, arrange the 5 novels as:

Novels = 5!

Lastly, take the 4 maths book as [1], the 5 novels as [1] and the remaining [1] biology book.

So, we have: 3 books

Arrange 3 books, we have:

Books = 3!

Total arrangement is:

Total = 4! * 5! * 3!

Total = 4*3*2*1 * 5*4*3*2*1 * 3*2*1

Total = 17280

Solving (c): Maths book together

First, arrange the 4 maths books as:

Maths = 4!

Next, take the 4 maths book as [1], then the remaining 6 books (i.e. 5 novels and 1 biology)

So, we have: 7 books

Arrange 7 books, we have:

Books = 7!

Total arrangement is:

Total = 4! * 7!

Total = 4*3*2*1 * 7*6*5*4*3*2*1

Total = 120960

Someone please help me make a proof for the bottom question
Lerok [7]

Answer:

DB = CA (Proved)

Step-by-step explanation:

Statement 1.

∠D = ∠C, M is the midpoint of DC and ∠1 = ∠2

Reason 1.  

Given

Statement 2.

Between Δ DBM and Δ CAM,  

(i) DM = CM,

(ii) ∠D = ∠C  and  

(iii) ∠DMB = ∠CMA

Reason 2.

(i) given  

(ii) given and  

(iii) ∠ DMB = ∠1 + ∠AMB and  ∠CMA = ∠2 + ∠AMB

Since ∠1 = ∠2, so, ∠DMB = ∠CMA.

Statement 3.

Δ DBM ≅ Δ CAM

Reason 3.

By angle-side-angle rule.

Statement 4.

DB = CA

Reason 4.

Corresponding sides of two congruent triangles. (Answer)

General Formulas and Concepts:

<u>Pre-Algebra</u>

  • Order of Operations: BPEMDAS

<u>Algebra I</u>

  • Function Notation

<u>Step 1: Define</u>

f(x) = x² + 10

f(-5) is x = -5

<u>Step 2: Evaluate</u>

  1. Substitute:                    f(-5) = (-5)² + 10
  2. Exponents:                   f(-5) = 25 + 10
  3. Add:                              f(-5) = 35

Indicate the equation of the given line in standard form, in the equation box below.
Illusion [34]

Perpendicular lines have slopes that are negative reciprocals of each other, so the equation of the line in point-slope form is:

y-4=-\frac{5}{2}(x+3)

Rewriting this in standard form,

2y-8=-5(x+3) \\ \\ 2y-8=-5x-15 \\ \\ \boxed{5x+2y=-7}

If the tax rate is 9.5%. determine how much tax you will need to pay on your order
7nadin3 [17]

Answer:

In order to calculate the sales tax of an item, we need to first multiply the pre-tax cost of the item by the sales tax percentage after it has been converted into a decimal. Once the sales tax has been calculated it needs to be added to the pre-tax value in order to find the total cost of the item.
