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

If y=(x^2-4)^5(3x+4)^4

alexira [117]

Answer:

$y'=2(3x+4)^3(x^2-4)^4(21x^2+20x-24)$

Step-by-step explanation:

$y=(x^2-4)^5(3x+4)^4$

$y'=[\frac{d}{dx}(x^2-4)^5](3x+4)^4+(x^2-4)^5[\frac{d}{dx}(3x+4)^4]$

$y'=10x(x^2-4)^4(3x+4)^4+(x^2-4)^5(12(3x+4)^3)$

$y'=10x(x^2-4)^4(3x+4)^4+12(x^2-4)^5(3x+4)^3$

$y'=2(3x+4)^3(x^2-4)^4(21x^2+20x-24)$

What is the area of this triangle ?

oee [108]

Answer:

Area of triangle is 9.88 units^2

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to find the area of triangle

Given E(5,1), F(0,4), D(0,8)

We will use formula:

$Area\,\,of\,\,triangle =\sqrt{s(s-a)(s-b)s-c)} \\where\,\, s = \frac{a+b+c}{2}$

We need to find the lengths of side DE, EF and FD

Length of side DE = a = $\sqrt{(x_{2}-x_{1})^2+(y_{2}-y_{1})^2}$

Length of side DE = a = $=\sqrt{(5-0)^2+(1-8)^2}\\=\sqrt{(5)^2+(-7)^2}\\=\sqrt{25+49}\\=\sqrt{74}\\=8.60$

Length of side EF = b = $\sqrt{(x_{2}-x_{1})^2+(y_{2}-y_{1})^2}$

Length of side EF = b = $=\sqrt{(0-5)^2+(4-1)^2}\\=\sqrt{(-5)^2+(3)^2}\\=\sqrt{25+9}\\=\sqrt{34}\\=5.8$

Length of side FD = c = $\sqrt{(x_{2}-x_{1})^2+(y_{2}-y_{1})^2}$

Length of side FD = c = $=\sqrt{(0-0)^2+(8-4)^2}\\=\sqrt{(0)^2+(4)^2}\\=\sqrt{0+16}\\=\sqrt{16}\\=4$

so, a= 8.60, b= 5.8 and c = 4

s = a+b+c/2

s= 8.6+5.8+4/2

s= 9.2

Area of triangle= $=\sqrt{s(s-a)(s-b)s-c)}\\=\sqrt{9.2(9.2-8.6)(9.2-5.8)(9.2-4)}\\=\sqrt{9.2(0.6)(3.4)(5.2)}\\=\sqrt{97.5936}\\=9.88$

So, area of triangle is 9.88 units^2
