A patient with end-stage kidney disease has nine family members who are potential kidney donors. How many possible orders are th
eduard

Answer: 504

Step-by-step explanation:

When we select r things from n things in a order , we use permutations.

Formula for permutation:  ^nP_r=\dfrac{n!}{(n-r)!}

Given : The number of family members who are potential kidney donors. = 9

Number of people needed to be selected for best match, a second-best match, and a third-best match ( in an order)=3

Then, the number of possible orders are = ^9P_3=\dfrac{9!}{(9-3)!}

=\dfrac{9\times8\times7\times6!}{6!}=504

Hence, the number of possible orders 504.

The model represents x2 – 9x + 14. An algebra tile configuration showing only the Product spot. 24 tiles are in the Product spot
klio [65]

I didn't get all the part with the tiles, but here's the general answer:

given a polynomial

p(x)=ax^2+bx+c

we have that x-k is a factor of p(x) if and only if k is a root of p(x), i.e. if

p(k)=ak^2+bk+c=0

So, given the polynomial

p(x)=x^2-9x+14

We can check if x-9 is a factor by evaluating p(9):

p(9)=81-81+14=14\neq 0

So, x-9 is not a factor.

Similarly, we can evaluate p(2),\ p(-5),\ p(-7) to check if x-2,\ x+5,\ x+7 are factors:

p(2)=4-18+14=0,\quad p(-5)=25+45+14=84\neq 0,\quad p(-7)=49+63+14=126 \neq 0

So, only x-2 is a factor of x^2-9x+14
