So you foil out the problem and get
Answer:
<u>Point C at (-18/7)</u>
Step-by-step explanation:
Point A is at -6 and point B is at 2.
So, the distance between A and B = 2 - (-6) = 8
point C on the directed line segment from A to B on a number line such that the segment is partitioned in a ratio of 3:4.
Let the distance AC = x
∴ BC = 8 - x
AC : CB = 3 : 4
∴
Using cross multiplication
3 (8-x) = 4x
24 - 3x = 4x
24 = 7x
x = 24/7
So, Point C = -6 + 24/7 = -18/7
Point C at (-18/7)
Answer:
The correct order is:
a
c
d
b
Step-by-step explanation:
First, let's write 1/x in a convenient way for us:
a) Substitute 1/x = p/q, to obtain x = 1/(1/x) = 1/(p/q) = q/p.
Now we assume that 1/x is rational (we want to prove that this implies that x will be also rational and because we know that x is irrational assuming that 1/x is rational will lead to an incongruence), then:
c. If 1/x is rational, then 1/x = p/q for some integers p and q with q ≠ 0. Observe that p is not 0 either, because 1/x is not 0.
Now we know that we can write x as a quotient of two integers, we need to imply that, then the next one is:
d) Observe that x is the quotient of two integers with the denominator nonzero.
And that is the definition of rational, then we end with:
b) Hence x is rational.
Which is what we wanted to get.
Answer:
40320 ways
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
Members = 8
Required
Number of ways they can be selected
Since, the order does not matter;
They can be selected in 8! ways


<em>Hence, there are 40320 ways which the director can select them for the concert</em>
