Complete Question:

The drama club is holding auditions for five different parts in a one act play. If 9 people audition, how many ways can the roles be assigned?

a. 362,880

b. 15,120

c. 126

d. 120

Answer:

b. 15,120

Step-by-step explanation:

In other to solve the question above, we would use the formula for permutation.

This is because when assigning 5 DIFFERENT roles to 9 people, the order of assigning the roles is important. The formula for permutation, is used when order is involved.

Permutation (n, r) = nPr = n!/(n - r)!

In the above question,

n = 9 people

r = 5 different parts

9P5 = 9!/(9 - 5)!

= 9!/4! = 9×8×7×6×5×4×3×2×1/ 4×3×2×1

= 362880/ 24

= 15,120

Therefore, the number of ways that the roles can be assigned is 15,120 ways

Express x^2-5x+8 in the form (x-a)^2+b

Answers

Answer:

x^2 - 5x + 8 = (x - 5/2)^2 + 7/4

Step-by-step explanation:

(x - a)^2 + b = x^2 - 2ax + a^2 + b

equate to your quadratic :

x^2 - 5x + 8 = x^2 - 2ax + (a^2 + b)

equating coefficients (ignoring x^2 as the coefficient is 1 for both)

for x :

-5 = -2a --> a = 5/2

for x^(0) : 8 = a^2 + b , note a = 5/2

thus,

8 = (5/2)^2 + b

8 = 25/4 + b

b = 8 - 25/4 = 32/4 - 25/4 = (32 - 25)/4 = 7/4

hence a = 5/2 , b = 7/4

thus,

x^2 - 5x + 8 = (x - 5/2)^2 + 7/4

A box contains 7 yellow, 5 blue, and 4 red balls. Three balls are drawn at random. Find the probability that:
a)
All three balls are the same color
c)
Two balls are yellow and one is blue
d)
All three balls are different colors

Answers

Answer:

a) 7/80 = 0.0875

b) 3/16 = 0.1875

c) 1/4 = 0.2500

Step-by-step explanation:

There are a total of 16 balls.  3 are selected.  There are ₁₆C₃ possible combinations.

a) If all 3 balls are the same color, they are either all yellow OR all blue OR all red.

The number of ways of choosing 3 yellow balls from 7 is ₇C₃.

The number of ways of choosing 3 blue balls from 5 is ₅C₃.

The number of ways of choosing 3 red balls from 4 is ₄C₃.

The total probability is:

P = (₇C₃ + ₅C₃ + ₄C₃) / ₁₆C₃

P = (35 + 10 + 4) / 560

P = 49 / 560

P = 7 / 80

P = 0.0875

b) The number of ways of choosing 2 yellow balls from 7 is ₇C₂.

The number of ways of choosing 1 blue ball from 5 is ₅C₁.

The probability of both is:

P = ₇C₂ ₅C₁ / ₁₆C₃

P = 21 × 5 / 560

P = 105 / 560

P = 3 / 16

P = 0.1875

c) If all 3 balls are different colors, then there is exactly 1 yellow, 1 blue, and 1 red.

The number of ways of choosing 1 yellow ball from 7 is ₇C₁.

The number of ways of choosing 1 blue ball from 5 is ₅C₁.

The number of ways of choosing 1 red ball from 4 is ₄C₁.

The probability of all events is:

P = ₇C₁ ₅C₁ ₄C₁ / ₁₆C₃

P = 7 × 5 × 4 / 560

P = 140 / 560

P = 1 / 4

P = 0.2500

2. Write a quadratic function with zeros at 6 and -2.

Answers

Answer:

f(x) = x^2 - 4x - 12

Step-by-step explanation:

If 6 is a zero, (x - 6) is a factor.  Likewise, if -2 is a zero, (x + 2) is a factor.

Multiplying these two factors together, we get:

Find the probability that a point in the figure chosen at random is in the
shaded kite. *Remember, the are of a kite is found by one half of diagonal
1 times diagonal 2. *
A)1/3
B)1/4
C)3/4
D)1/2

Answers

Answer:

Correct option: D) 1/2

Step-by-step explanation:

First we need to find the area of the kite and the area of the rectangle.

The diagonals of the kite are 16 and 12, as they are parallel to the sides of the rectangle.

So the area of the kite is A1 = (1/2) * 16 * 12 = 96

The area of the rectagle is the product of the sides, so A2 = 16 * 12 = 192

Now, to find the probability of a random point being inside the kite, we just need to divide the area of the kite by the area of the rectangle:

Probability = A1 / A2 = 96 / 192 = 1/2

Correct option: D)

Answer:

4 mm

Step-by-step explanation:

The radius is half the diameter, so in this case the radius of each button is 4 mm.

Answer:

The radius would be 4 millimetres

Step-by-step explanation:

The radius is the length from one side to the centre of the circle.

The diameter is the length from one side to another.

To work out the radius you would simply divide the diameter of 8 by 2, this gives you 4 millimetres. This is because the radius is half of the diameter.

1) Divide 8 by 2.
