A scale has a percent error of 7% the scale reads the mass of a book as 450 g.

Bess [88]

B, is the correct answer.
7% of 450 is 31.5
We add 31.5 to 450 to find out highest possible error, and subtract 31.5 from 450 to find out lowest possible error.

The amount of radioactive uranium changes with time. The abscissas and ordinates of the points given are the time and amoung of

kakasveta [241]

The answer is <span>A. f(t) = 100(0.25)t
</span>
This may be solved by inserting all points to your answer and sseeing if they work. Since <span>A. f(t) = 100(0.25)t fits with all points, this best represents the relationship between f(t) and t.

4-2(x+7)=3(x+5) can ya'll help me with the steps.

maria [59]

Answer:

x = -5

Step-by-step explanation:

4-2(x+7)=3(x+5)

Distribute

4 -2x-14 = 3x+15

Combine like terms

-2x-10 = 3x+15

Add 2x to each side

-2x-10+2x= 3x+15+2x

-10 = 5x+15

Subtract 15 from each side

-10-15 = 5x+15

-25 = 5x

Divide by 5

-25/5 = 5x/5

-5 =x

A swim team must be chosen from 12 candidates. What is the greatest number of different 3-person teams that can be chosen?

grin007 [14]

<h3>Answer: 220 combinations</h3>

==========================================

Explanation:

We have 12*11*10 = 1320 permutations possible. This is where order matters. However, order does not matter with swim teams as there are no positions or ranks. All that matters is the group overall (rather than any individual in the group).

Consider the set {A,B,C}. We have 3*2*1 = 6 ways to arrange this set of letters. When considering a permutation, there are 6 permutations but only 1 combination since order doesnt matter and ABC is the same as BAC. Therefore, we divide 1320 over 6 to get the final answer of 1320/6 = 220.

---------

You can use the combination formula with n = 12 and r = 3. Doing so will give the following:

$_n C _r = \frac{n!}{r!*(n-r)!}\\\\_{12} C _3 = \frac{12!}{3!*(12-3)!}\\\\_{12} C _3 = \frac{12!}{3!*9!}\\\\_{12} C _3 = \frac{12*11*10*9!}{3!*9!}\\\\_{12} C _3 = \frac{12*11*10}{3!}\\\\_{12} C _3 = \frac{12*11*10}{3*2*1}\\\\_{12} C _3 = \frac{1320}{6}\\\\_{12} C _3 = 220\\\\$

As you can see, we get the same result and note how 1320/6 is also present as well.
