This question is incomplete, the complete question is;

If n is a positive integer, how many 5-tuples of integers from 1 through n can be formed in which the elements of the 5-tuple are written in increasing order but are not necessarily distinct.

In other words, how many 5-tuples of integers  ( h, i , j , m ), are there with  n ≥ h ≥ i ≥ j ≥ k ≥ m ≥ 1 ?

Answer:

the number of 5-tuples of integers from 1 through n that can be formed is [ n( n+1 ) ( n+2 ) ( n+3 ) ( n+4 ) ] / 120

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the data in the question;

Any quintuple ( h, i , j , m ), with n ≥ h ≥ i ≥ j ≥ k ≥ m ≥ 1

this can be represented as a string of ( n-1 ) vertical bars and 5 crosses.

So the positions of the crosses will indicate which 5 integers from 1 to n are indicated in the n-tuple'

Hence, the number of such quintuple is the same as the number of strings of ( n-1 ) vertical bars and 5 crosses such as;

\left[\begin{array}{ccccc}5&+&n&-&1\\&&5\\\end{array}\right] = \left[\begin{array}{ccc}n&+&4\\&5&\\\end{array}\right]

= [( n + 4 )! ] / [ 5!( n + 4 - 5 )! ]

= [( n + 4 )!] / [ 5!( n-1 )! ]

= [ n( n+1 ) ( n+2 ) ( n+3 ) ( n+4 ) ] / 120

Therefore, the number of 5-tuples of integers from 1 through n that can be formed is [ n( n+1 ) ( n+2 ) ( n+3 ) ( n+4 ) ] / 120

In triangle ABC, c = 9 m/_B = 65° and a = 105. Find b.​
tresset_1 [31]

Answer:

b = 101.52

Step-by-step explanation:

b^2 = a^2 + c^2 - 2ac CosB

b^2 = 105^2 + 9^2 - 2(105)(9) Cos 65°

b^2 = 11 106 - 798.75

b^2 = 10 307.25

b = 101.52

A rectangle has a length of x + 5 and width of x - 3. What is the area of the rectangle? Write the answer as a polynomial in sta
goldfiish [28.3K]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Area = length * width

length: x + 3

width: x - 5

A = (x + 3)(x - 5)

Simplify (x + 3)(x - 5) using the FOIL method:

 

1. First numbers: multiply the first number of each binomial together--x*x = x%5E2

2. Outer numbers: multiply the outer number of each binomial (out of the entire expression, the number farthest to the left (x) and the number farthest to the right (-5))--x*-5 = -5x

3. Inner numbers: multiply the inner number of each binomial--3*x = 3x

4. Last numbers: multiply the last number of each binomial--3*-5 = -15

==> Now, add all of the results together and combine like terms: x%5E2+-+5x+%2B+3x+-+15 = x%5E2+-+2x+-+15

Therefore, A = x%5E2+-+2x+-+15
