Answer:

120 ways

Step-by-step explanation:

Alice, Bob, David, Charlie,   Eve

David, Alice, Bob,  Charlie,   Eve

Alice,David, Bob,  Charlie,   Eve

Charlie,   Eve ,Alice,David, Bob,  

Charlie,   Eve ,Alice, Bob, David,

Charlie,   Eve ,David, Alice, Bob,

Alice,Charlie,   Eve , Bob, David,

Alice,Charlie,   Eve ,  David, Bob,

Bob,Alice,Charlie,   Eve ,  David,   and so .

This is a permutation question as the order of placing Charlie to the left of Eve is important.

So the total number of people n= 5 and the possible order is 4 keeping Charlie left of Eve. Eve cannot have the last position to keep Charlie on the left.

Using the formula of nPr = n!/ (n-r)! we get

5! / (5-4)! = 120 ways in which Charlie can be placed to the left of Eve.

The graphs of functions f(x) and g(x) = f(x) + k are shown below:<br><br> What is the value of k?
KatRina [158]

Answer:

k = 4

Step-by-step explanation:

k is the difference of y-intercepts (where the lines intersect with the y-axis). So, subtract the y-intercept of f(x) from the y-intercept of g(x).

2 - (-2) = 4

Hope that helps! :D
