Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
This is a Combination (as in permutation vs combination) question the symbol (n r) refers to "n choose r". This is sometimes written as nCr
i.e the question is asking you to find how many combinations each will yield when you chose r items from n item without repetition and order does not matter.
I will only do the first question for you and you can just follow the same steps to solve the rest of the questions.
Recall that
Consider question a) we are given (5 1) or ₅C₁
we can see that n = 5 and r = 1
If we substitute this into the formula:
₅C₁ = (5!) / [ (1!)(5- 1)!]
= (5!) / [ (5- 1)!]
= (5!) / (4!)
= (5·4·3·2·1) / (4·3·2·1)
= 5
hence ₅C₁ = 5
Answer:
<u>b(n) = -11 + (n-1)*8</u>
<u></u>
Step-by-step explanation:
Let n be the sequence number, with n=1 the first number b(1) -11
The sequence changes by +8 each step.
<u><em>b(1)</em></u><em> -11</em> + 8 = -3
<u><em>b(2)</em></u><em> -3</em> + 8 = 5
<u><em>b(3)</em></u> <em> 5 </em> + 8 = 13
<u><em>b(4)</em></u><em> </em> <em>13</em>
b(1) = -11
b(2) = -3. or b(1) + 1*8
b(3) = 5, or b(1) + 2*8
b(4) = 13, or b(1) + 3*8
We note that each step adds a multiple of 8 to the initial value of -11. This can be stated as (n-1)*8
The formula for this sequence would be b(n) = b(1) + (n-1)*8
<u>b(n) = -11 + (n-1)*8</u>
Check: Does n=3 return the value of 5?
b(n) = -11 + (n-1)*8
b(3) = -11 + ((3)-1)*8
b(3) = -11 + (2)*8
b(3) = -11 + 16
b(3) = 5 <u><em>YES</em></u>
16 oz because if you do 48/16 you get 3 and 4 times $4.87 equals less then 13.97
Answer:
1. 12 ft
2. 42.86 ft
Step-by-step explanation:
1. 5/24 = 2.5/<em>x</em>
<em> </em>5x<em> </em>=<em> </em>60
<em> x = </em>12 ft
2. 5/<em>x</em> = 7/60
7<em>x</em> = 300
x = 300/7 = 42.857 ft
You can use gauss's method
n(first number + last number)/2 where n is the number of integers in this case 21 ()
21(0.30 + 0.50)/2
21*0.8/2
21*0.4
8.4
