6 0

Answer:

60,949,324,800

Step-by-step explanation:

We solve the above question using Permutation formula

The formula for Permutation =

nPr = n!/(n - r)!

Total Amount in a Set (n) = 20 persons

Amount in each Sub-Set (r) = 9 batting order

Hence:

20P9 = 20!/(20 - 9)!

= 60,949,324,800

Therefore, the different batting orders they would have are: 60,949,324,800

How would you write 87 as a Roman numeral?

ddd [48]

Answer:

LXXXVII

Step-by-step explanation:

L=50 X=10 V=5 I=1

So basically you need to figure out what adds up to the 87. so use L, or 50. now XXX=30. so now you have 80 so we still have 7 left over, so we can write 7 I's or a 5, (V) and two I's. We should use the V and the I. So we take one V, or 5. and two I's which together is 7. which leads us too LXXXVII. also always remember to have the biggest number first, in this case the L (50).

Suppose you have $10,000 to invest. Which investment yields the greater return over 7 years: 6.6% compounded monthly or 6.7% com

joja [24]

Answer:

C) $10,000 invested at 6.7% compounded quarterly over 7 years yields the greater return.

Step-by-step explanation:

-We determine the effective interest rate in both scenarios and use it to calculate the investment's value after 7 years.

#Given n=7yrs, P=$10,000 and i=6.6% compounded monthly:

$i_m=(1+i/m)^m-1\\\\=(1+0.066/12)^{12}-1=0.06803\\\\\therefore A=P(1+i_m)^n\\\\=10000(1.06803)^7\\\\\approx \$15,852.00$
