Answer:

There are 18 choices for first place, 17 for second, and 16 for third.

Therefore, there are 18 x 17 x 16=4896

So there are 4,896 ways possible

Step-by-step explanation:

Hope this helps:)...if not then sorry for wasting your time and may God bless you:)

This is really confusing me:<br> Simplify so that your answers contain only positive exponents.
xxTIMURxx [149]

Answer:

  see below

Step-by-step explanation:

For simplifying expressions of this sort, there are four rules of exponents that come into play;

  a^ba^c=a^{b+c}\\\\(ab)^c=a^cb^c\\\\(a^b)^c=a^{bc}\\\\\dfrac{1}{a^b}=a^{-b}\ \quad\text{which means}\quad a^b=\dfrac{1}{a^{-b}}

__

I find it convenient to eliminate the fractions by adding the exponents, then rewrite any negative exponents as denominator factors.

23. \quad\dfrac{1}{x^{-2}}=x^2\\\\24. \quad\dfrac{mn}{m^2n^3}=m^{1-2}n^{1-3}=m^{-1}n^{-2}=\dfrac{1}{mn^2}\\\\25. \quad\dfrac{k^{-2}}{k^{-3}}=k^{-2-(-3)}=k\\\\26. \quad\left(\dfrac{m^2}{n^3}\right)^3=\dfrac{m^{2\cdot 3}}{n^{3\cdot 3}}=\dfrac{m^6}{n^9}\\\\27. \quad\dfrac{x^2y^3z^4}{x^{-3}y^{-4}z^{-5}}=x^{2-(-3)}y^{3-(-4)}z^{4-(-5)}=x^5y^7z^9

Jessie draws triangle ABC on a coordinate grid. The slope of line segment AB is Jessie then transforms triangle
balu736 [363]

Answer:

1) Supports Jessie's Claim

2) Does Not Support Jessi's Claim

3) Supports Jessie's Claim

4) Does Not Support Jessi's Claim

Step-by-step explanation:

The given transformations are;

1) Rotation of 180° around the origin

For a rotation of 180° around the origin, either clockwise or anti clockwise, for a given coordinate of the preimage (x, y), the coordinate of the image is (-x, -y)

Therefore, whereby the slope of the preimage, given two points (0, 0) and (2, 2), = (2 - 0)/(2 - 0) = 1

For the image with the points (0, 0) and (-2, -2), we have;

(-2 - 0)/(-2 - 0) = 1

Therefore, the slope of the preimage and the image are equal

Therefore, supports Jessie's Claim

2) For a reflection across the line y = 2, we have

We note that the line y = 2 is parallel to the x-axis

For a reflection across the x-axis, for a preimage (x, y), we have the coordinates of the image (x, -y)

However for the reflection across the line y = 2, we have;

For a preimage, (x, y), the coordinate of the image is (x, -y+4)

Given two points, of the preimage (0, 0) and (2, 2), we have the image given as (0, 4) and (2, -2 + 4) = (2, 2);

The slope of the preimage is (2 - 0)/(2 - 0) = 1

The slope of the image is (2 - 4)/(2 - 0) = -1

The slope of the line of the preimage and the image are different

Therefore, does Not Support Jessi's Claim

3) For a translation up 1.25 units, we note that the difference in the y and x values of the coordinates of the preimage and the image will be equal when finding the slope, and therefore, the slope of the figure of the preimage and the slope of the figure of the image will be equal

Therefore, supports Jessie's Claim

4) For a reflection across the x-axis, a point on the preimage, with coordinates (x, y) will form a point on the image with coordinates (x, - y)

For a preimage with points (0, 0) and (2, 2), we have the image as (0, 0) and (2, -2)

The slope of the preimage is (2 - 0)/(2 - 0) = 1

The slope of the image is (-2 - 0)/(2 - 0) = -1

The slope of the line of the preimage and the image are different

Therefore, does Not Support Jessi's Claim
