The number of lines and triangles illustrates combination

  • 36 lines can be drawn to join the nine points
  • 84 triangles can be drawn using the nine points

<h3>The number of lines that can be drawn</h3>

The given parameters are:

Total points, n = 9

Total points on each line, r = 2

The number of lines that can be drawn is then calculated  using the following combination formula

Lines = nCr

This gives

Lines = 9C2

Evaluate the combination expression

Lines = 36

Hence, 36 lines can be drawn to join the nine points

<h3>The number of triangles that can be drawn</h3>

The given parameters are:

Total points, n = 9

Total points on each triangle, r = 3

The number of triangles that can be drawn is then calculated  using the following combination formula

Triangles = nCr

This gives

Triangles = 9C3

Evaluate the combination expression

Triangles = 84

Hence, 84 triangles can be drawn using the nine points

A person borrowef Rs 16000 from a bank at 12.5% pet annum simple intrest and lent the whole amount to shopkeeper at the sam rate
r-ruslan [8.4K]

Answer:

The amount he gains in 2 years is Rs. 250

Step-by-step explanation:

The parameters of the amount borrowed from the bank are;

The amount borrowed, P = Rs. 16,000

The interest rate of the amount borrowed, R = 12.5%

The number of years, T = 2 years

The simple interest, I = (P × R × T)/100 =  (Rs. 16,000 × 12.5 × 2)/100 = Rs. 4,000

The total amount the person is to pay bank to the bank = P + I = Rs. 16,000 + Rs. 4,000 = Rs. 20,000

The parameters of the amount lent to the shopkeeper are;

The amount lent, P = Rs. 16,000

The compound interest rate of the amount lent, R = 12.5%

The number of years, T = 2 years

The amount he receives from the shopkeeper after 2 years, A = P·(1 + R/n)^(n × T) = Rs. 16,000 × (1 + 0.125/1)^(1 × 2) = Rs. 20,250

The amount he gains in 2 years = The amount he receives from the shop keeper - The amount he gives to the bank = Rs. 20,250 - Rs. 20,000 = Rs. 250

The amount he gains in 2 years = Rs. 250.

When a group of 40 friends goes to the movies at a multiplex, 1/5 of the group decides to watch a science friction movie.How man
Sladkaya [172]

Answer: 8 members of the science group decided to watch the science fiction movie

Step-by-step explanation:

When a group of 40 friends goes to the movies at a multiplex, 1/5 of the group decides to watch a science friction movie. This means that the total sum of the members of the group that decided to watch the science fiction movie and the members that did not watch the science fiction movie is 40.

If 1/5 of the group decides to watch a science friction movie, that means that 1/5 of 40 watched the science fiction movie. It becomes

1/5 × 40/= 40/5 = 8

8 members of the science group decided to watch the science fiction movie.

Which of the following constants can be added to x2 - 3x to form a perfect square trinomial?
tatuchka [14]
When forming a perfect square trinomial you need to "complete the square".
All of the steps to completing the square when solving an equation:
1.  The leading coefficient must be 1.
2.  Divide b by 2.
3.  Square (b/2)
4.  Add (b/2)^2 to both sides to keep the polynomial balanced.
5.  You can now write the perfect square trinomial and solve.

x^2 - 3x
-3/2
(-3/2)^2 = 9/4 = 2 1/4
