Answer:

a) 207,360 ways

b)8,709,120  ways

Step-by-step explanation:

Total number of subjects= 3

Number of mathematics books = 4

Number of physics books = 6

Number of chemistry books = 2

Part a:

Number of possible arrangement s= 3! 4! 6! 2!= 6*24*720*2= 207360 ways

In this we have included 3! because the books have to be placed in such a manner that the books in each particular subject must all stand together.

Part b:

Similarly the mathematics books must stand together so they are treated as

The total number of books will be

Physics books + Chemistry books+ Mathematics books= 6+2+1(treated as single) = 9

But there are 4 different mathematics books so these can be arranged in 4 ways.

Total number of ways in which these books can be arranged = 9! 4!= 8709120  ways.

A circle is centered at N(-6, -2). The point E(-1,1) is on the circle.
galina1969 [7]

Answer:

Outside the circle

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's first write the equation of this circle: (x-h)^2+(y-k)^2=r^2, where (h, k) is the center and r is the radius. Here, the center is (-6, -2). We need to find the radius, which will just be the distance from N to E:

NE = \sqrt{(-6-(-1))^2+(-2-1)^2} =\sqrt{25+9} =\sqrt{34}

The radius is √34, which means that r² = 34. So, our equation is:

(x + 6)² + (y + 2)² = 34

Plug in -10 for x and -7 for y:

(x + 6)² + (y + 2)² = 34

x² + 12x + 36 + y² + 4y + 4 = 34

x² + 12x + y² + 4y + 40 = 34

x² + 12x + y² + 4y + 6 = 0

(-10)² + 12 * (-10) + (-7)² + 4 * (-7) + 6 = 7

Since 7 > 0, we know that H lies outside the circle.
