Answer:
720 possible ways
Step-by-step explanation:
The gold is awarded to the first position, the silver is awarded to the second position while the bronze is awarded to the third position.
The first position can be taken by any of the 10 runners
Now, the second position can be taken by remaining 9 runners
while the third position can be taken by the renaming 8 runners.
Thus, the number of ways in which these medals can be awarded = 10 * 9 * 8 = 720 ways
Answer:
a = 30
b = 40
C
Step-by-step explanation:
This requires that you use a proportion.
a / (a + 15) = 40 / 60
The small triangle's sides are in proportion to the large triangles sides.
Reduce the right. Divide top and bottom by 20
a/(a + 15) = 40/20 // 60/20
a/(a + 15) = 2/3
Cross multiply
3a = 2(a + 15) Remove the brackets on the right.
3a = 2a + 30
Subtract 2a from both sides
3a-2a = 30
a = 30
Find B
b is done exactly the same way.
b/(b+20) = 2/3
3b = 2b + 40
3b - 2b = 40
b = 40
Answer:
C. x = -12 and x = 2
Step-by-step explanation:
-x²-10x+24=0 Original equation
x²+10x-24=0 Divide everything by -1
(x+12)(x-2)=0 Factor it out
x=-12,2 Solve so that the inside of the parentheses equals 0
Answer:
420 cm, 4.3 meters, 4600 mm, 0.04 km
Step-by-step explanation:
We can solve this by converting each to the same unit. I will be using meters.
0.04 km
1 km = 1000 meters
1000 meters / 1 km = 1
multiply 0.04 km by 1 = 1000 meters / 1 km , keeping the km at the bottom to cross out
0.04 km * 1000 meters / 1 km = 40 meters
420 cm
100 cm = 1 meter
1 meter / 100 cm = 1
multiply 420 cm by this, keeping cm at the bottom so it crosses out
420 cm * 1 meter / 100 cm = 4.2 meters
4600 mm
1000 mm = 1 meter
1 meter / 1000 mm = 1
4600 mm * 1 meter / 1000 mm = 4.6 meters
Therefore, our order is
420 cm, 4.3 meters, 4600 mm, 0.04 km
