Answer:

32598720

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Combination for the school government requires:</u>

5 out of 8 seniors = 8! / 3!5! = 6*7*8/2*3 = 7*8 = 56
4 out of 9 juniors = 9! / 4!5! = 6*7*8*9/2*3*4= 7*2*9 = 126
3 out of 12 sophomores = 12! / 3!9! = 10*11*12/2*3 = 10*11*2 = 220
2 out of 7 fishermen = 7! / 2!5! = 6*7/2 = 21

<u>So number of total ways is:</u>

56*126*220*21 = 32598720

3(2a + 1) = -5(a + 6)

Lemur [1.5K]

3(2a+1)=-5(a+6)
First expand the brackets.
6a+3=-5a-30
Now add 5a to both sides.
11a+3=-30
Then subtract 3 from both sides.
11a=-33
Finally divide both sides by 11.
a=- 33/11
=-3

A lifeguard is in a look out chair and sees a person in distress. The eye level of the lifeguard is 15 feet above the ground. Th

faltersainse [42]

Answer:

Horizontal distance between lifeguard and the person is 22 feet.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: A lifeguard sees a person in distress.The eye level of the lifeguard is 15 feet above the ground. Angle of depression is 34°.

To find: Horizontal distance between lifeguard and the person.

Solution : If we draw a triangle then tan∅ = $\frac{height}{base}$

Here base is the horizontal distance.

Now we put the values in the formula.

tan 34° = $\frac{15}{base}$

Or Base = $\frac{15}{tan34}$

= $\frac{15}{0.675} = 22.22 feet$

So the answer is 22 feet.
