<h3>Answer:</h3>

There are 40,320 ways, in which 8 books can be arranged on a shelf.

<h3>Solution:</h3>

Here, we are to find the number of ways in which 8 books can be arranged on a shelf. The total number of books is 8 and the way of arranging books is also 8.

  • If one book is placed in the first place, then 7 books will be placed in front of it. If 2 books are placed in the 2nd place, then only 6 books can be placed after that book. This sequence will continue till 1 .

<u>Permutations </u><u>:</u>

  • A permutation is an arrangement of objects in a definite order.

➲<u> P ( n, r )= n ! / ( n - r ) !</u>

  • n = total number of objects

  • r = number of objects selected

The number of ways to arrange 8 books on a shelf will be :

➝ P ( n, r ) = n ! / ( n - r ) !

➝ P ( n, r ) = 8 ! / ( 8 - 8 ) !

➝ P ( n, r ) = 8 ! / 0 !

➝ P ( n, r ) = 8 × 7 × 6 × 5 × 4 × 3 × 2 × 1 / 1

➝ P ( n, r ) = 40, 320

‎ㅤ‎ㅤ‎ㅤ‎ㅤ‎ㅤ‎ㅤ~ Hence, there are <u>40,320 ways</u> in which 8 books can be arranged on a shelf !

The graph of f(x) = 3.2x-3 is shown below. g(x) is a transformation of f(x).
WINSTONCH [101]

Answer:

  C.  g(x) = 3·2^x +2

Step-by-step explanation:

The graph of g(x) appears to be a translation upward of the graph of f(x).

__

To find the equation of g(x), we can add 5 to f(x), since the translation appears to be 5 units. (The y-intercept of f(x) is 0; the y-intercept of g(x) is 5.)

  g(x) = f(x) +5

  g(x) = (3·2^x -3) +5

  g(x) = 3·2^x +2

__

You can also determine the correct choice by looking at the value at x=0:

  A. g(0) = 3 +6 = 9

  B. g(0) = 1 +3 = 4

 C. g(0) = 3 +2 = 5 . . . . matches g(0) on the given graph

  D. g(0) = 3

Column A
Viefleur [7K]
The slope m of a line passing through points P(a, b) and Q(c, d) is found using the formula:

                     m= \frac{b-d}{a-c}.

Thus, the slope in A is m= \frac{12-2}{-4-(-10)}=\frac{10}{6}=\frac{5}{3}.

The slope in B is m= \frac{-4-10}{6-18}=\frac{-14}{-12}=\frac{7}{6}.

Now, to compare 7/6  to 5/3, we can write the second fraction as 10/6.


So, the slope in A is larger than the slope in B.
