Answer: 277 ways

Step-by-step explanation:

Let’s start bycreating 10-unit pieces using the 4-unit piece.

The arrangements are:

1). 4-3-3 (3 permutations)

2). 4-3-2-1 = 4! = 24 permutations.

3). 4-3-1-1-1 (5*[4!/(3!1!)]

= 5*4

= 20permutations

4). 4-2-2-2 (4 permutations)

5). 4-2-2-1-1 (5 *[4!/(2!2!)]

= 5*6

= 30 permutations

6). 4-2-1-1-1-1(6*[5!/(4!1!)]

= 6*5

= 30 permutations

Let’s-consider the arrangements using one or more3-unit pieces and no 4-unit piece:

7). 3-3-2-2 (4!/(2!2!)

8). 3-3-2-1-1 (5*(4!/(2!2!)

= 5*6

= 30 permutations.

9). 3-3-1-1-1-1 (6!/(4!2!) = 0

10). 3-2-2-2-1 (5*4!/(3!1!)

= 5*4

= 20permutations

11). 3-2-2-1-1-1 (6*5!/(3!2!)

= 6*10

= 60 permutations

Finally we would look at the arrangements using only 1-and 2-unit pieces:

12). 2-2-2-1-1-1-1 (7!/(4!3!)

= 35 permutations

add them all up:

(3 + 24 + 20 + 4) + (30 + 30 + 6 + 30) + (15 + 20 + 60 + 35)

=51 + 96 + 130

= 277ways

the area of a trapezoid is 36 square inches. The height is 4 inches and one bases twice the length of the other base. What are t
vlada-n [284]
The formula for this is A= \frac{1}{2} ( b_{1} + b_{2} )h.  Filling in accordingly, 36= \frac{1}{2}(x+2x)(4).  This simplifies to 36= \frac{1}{2}(3x)(4) and 36=6x.  Therefore, x = 6 so the bases are 6 and 12.

Answer correctly for brainleist and 5 mark
notsponge [240]

Answer:

It is the last answer.

Step-by-step explanation:

If you graph this, there will be no point more negative than (-4/3, -5).

This means the x and y values must be greater than or equal to these values, as the fourth answer will show.
