Answer:

1287

Step-by-step explanation:

Number of people in elevator , n = 8

Number of floors, r = 6

Since they all look alike, arrangement doesn't matter, the we use combination :

(n+r-1 r - 1) = (8+6-1 C 6-1) = 13C5

Recall:

nCr = n! / (n-r)!r!

13C5 = 13! / (13-5)!5!

13C5 = 13*12*11*10*9 / 5*4*3*2*1

= 1287

Express the sum of the polymonial 3x^2+15x-56 and the square of the binomial (x-8) as a polynomial in standard form.
tester [92]

Given:

Polynomial is 3x^2+15x-56.

To find:

The sum of given polynomial and the square of the binomial (x-8) as a polynomial in standard form.

Solution:

The sum of given polynomial and the square of the binomial (x-8) is

3x^2+15x-56+(x-8)^2

=3x^2+15x-56+x^2-2(x)(8)+8^2    [\because (a-b)^2=a^2-2ab+b^2]

=3x^2+15x-56+x^2-16x+64

On combining like terms, we get

=(3x^2+x^2)+(15x-16x)+(-56+64)

=4x^2-x+8

Therefore, the sum of given polynomial and the square of the binomial (x-8) as a polynomial in standard form is 4x^2-x+8.

6w-10 represents the total amount of fence will need to complete the rectangle of fence in his yard. The fence will need two lengths and 2 widths to complete the rectangle. If the width is w, and the length is 2w-5, then the total for the rectangle would be w+w+2w-5+2w-5 which simplifies to 6w-10.
