lesya692 [45]

Answer:

$S=720$

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told that

Six wire are attached to a circuit board

Generally using multiplication rule

Let number of possible sequence be given as S

Mathematically

$S=6! =6*5*4*3*2*1=720$

Therefore

Number of possible sequence $S=720$

Suppose the interval [negative 3−3,negative 1−1] is partitioned into nequals=44 subintervals. What is the subinterval length

Kobotan [32]

Answer: Δx = 0.5

Step-by-step explanation:

We have the interval:

[−3, −1]

and we partition it into 4 equal intervals.

first, the range of our interval is equal to the difference between the extremes, this is:

-1 - (-3) = -1 + 3 = 2

Then, if we divide it into 4, we have 4 segments with a range of:

2/4 = 0.5

Then the subinterval delta is 0.5, and the 4 intervals are:

[−3, -2.5], [−2.5, −2], [−2, −1.5], [−1.5, −1]

1.4t−0.4(t−3.1)=5.8<br><br> SOLVE FOR Y

VladimirAG [237]

There is no y in this question, however we can solve for t.

1.4t - 0.4(t - 3.1) = 5.8
1.4t - 0.4t + 1.24 = 5.8
t + 1.24 = 5.8
t = 4.56
