Recall that the volume of a cube equals (side)^3. We can create an equation to model this.

1728 in^3 = (side)^3

We can get the cube root of both sides.

12 in = side

Each side is 12 inches long.

From a pool of 12 candidates, the offices of president, vice-president, secretary, and treasurer will be filled. In how many dif

Romashka [77]

Answer:

11,880 different ways.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have been given that from a pool of 12 candidates, the offices of president, vice-president, secretary, and treasurer will be filled. We are asked to find the number of ways in which the offices can be filled.

We will use permutations for solve our given problem.

$^nP_r=\frac{n!}{(n-r)!}$ , where,

n = Number of total items,

r = Items being chosen at a time.

For our given scenario $n=12$ and $r=4$ .

$^{12}P_4=\frac{12!}{(12-4)!}$

$^{12}P_4=\frac{12!}{8!}$

$^{12}P_4=\frac{12*11*10*9*8!}{8!}$

$^{12}P_4=12*11*10*9$

$^{12}P_4=11,880$

Therefore, offices can be filled in 11,880 different ways.

Can someone help with this problem please? Thanks.

First, find the slope of the line. Use the two points given, (-4,0) and (4,2), in the slope formula rise over run. The change in rise is 2 and the change in run is 8, meaning that the slope is 2/8, simplified to 1/4. The y-intercept is 1, shown by the graph and the dashed line and shaded area means that the inequality symbol must be <. Slope-intercept form is shown as y = mx + b, so after putting our information in to the equation the answer is y < 1/4x + 1. Hope this helps!
