The number of 10 chips stacks that Dave can make if two stacks are not considered distinct is 110.

The solution

To get the symmetric stacks, one has to subtract the symmetric stacks to know the ones that are asymmetric.

The symmetric are flipped. Given that they are double counted what we have to do is to divide through by 2.

6/2 = 3

10/2 = 5

4/2 = 2

1/2(10C6) - (5C3) + (5C3)

0.5(210-10+10)

= 110

Equation for a parabola with a focus of (2, -2) and a directrix of y=-8
Fantom [35]

Answer:

y=1/8(-x^2+4x+44

Step-by-step explanation:

In this question the given focus is (2,4) and a directrix of y = 8 and we have to derive the equation of the parabola.

Let (x,y) is a point on the given parabola.Then the distance between the point (x,y) to (2,4) and the distance from (x,y) to diractrix will be same.

Distance between (x,y) and (2,4)

= √(x-2)²+(y-4)²

And the distance between (x,y) and directrix y=8

= (y-8)

Now √(x-2)²+(y-4)² = (y-8)

(x-2)²+(y-4)² = (y-8)²

x²+4-4x+y²+16-8y = y²+64-16y

x²+20+y²-4x-8y = y²-16y+64

x²+20-4x-8y+16y-64=0

x²+8y-4x-44 = 0

8y = -x²+4x+44

The perimeter of a right triangle is 60 feet and the area is 150 square feet. If the lengths of the sides of the triangle are ea
JulsSmile [24]

Answer:

B. 600 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for the Perimeter of a right triangle = Side a + Side b + Side c

The perimeter of a right triangle is 60 feet

If the lengths of the sides of the triangle are each multiplied by 10, what is the perimeter of the new right triangle?

Hence, the perimeter of the new right triangle = 10 × 60ft

= 600ft

Option B is the correct Option.

Answer:

Hello! answer: 180

Step-by-step explanation:

what I did to find answer is cut them into pieces I cut the m into 3 pieces and now just have to multiply my base x height so for the left one I did 12 x 6 = 72 for the middle I did 6 x 6 = 36 and for the right one I did 12 x 6 = 72 I add these up so...

72 + 36 + 72 = 180 so the surface area is 180! I hope this helps!
