Your literature class will read 4 novels this year, chosen by class vote from a list of 7 possible books offered by the teacher.
a) How many different ways could the course unfold, given that it probably matters what order you read the books in?
b) How many different choices of books could the class make?
a) The number of different ways the course could unfold is
Answer:
a) 840 different ways
b) 35 different choices of books
Step-by-step explanation:
We know that our literature class will read a total of 4 novels this year.
All novels chosen by class vote from a list of 7 possible books offered by the teacher.
Wherever we have an experiment [tex]''N''[/tex] which is formed by sub - experiments that can occurred in [tex]m_{1},m_{2},...,m_{n}[/tex] ways, the total number of ways in which the whole experiment [tex]''N''[/tex] can be developed is :
[tex]m_{1}[/tex] x [tex]m_{2}[/tex] x ... x [tex]m_{n}[/tex]
Then, for a) if it matters what order we read the books in, the total number of different ways could the course unfold is :
[tex](7).(6).(5).(4)=840[/tex] (I)
Because for the first book there are 7 different choices. Now, given that we choose the first book, we only have 6 different choices for the second one.
Continuing with the idea, we deduce the equation (I).
For item b) :
Wherever we have [tex]''n''[/tex] different objects and we want to find the ways that we can choose [tex]''r''[/tex] objects from that group, we need to use the combinatorial number.
We define the combinatorial number as :
[tex]nCr=\left(\begin{array}{c}n&r\end{array}\right)=\frac{n!}{r!(n-r)!}[/tex]
Then, if we apply this to the problem, the total different choices of books if we want 4 novels voting from a total of 7 possible books is :
[tex]7C4=\frac{7!}{4!(7-4)!}=35[/tex]
a) 840 different ways
b) 35 different choices of books
The number of violent crimes committed in a day possesses a distribution with a mean of 2.8 crimes per day and a standard deviation of 4 crimes per day. A random sample of 100 days was observed, and the sample mean number of crimes for the sample was calculated. Describe the sampling distribution of the sample means.
Answer:
The distribution is approximately normal with mean = 2.8 and standard error = 0.4
Step-by-step explanation:
We are given;
Mean; μ = 2.8
Standard deviation; σ = 4
Sample size; n = 100
Now, the central limit theorem states that the sample mean with a sample size(n) from a population mean (μ) and population standard deviation(σ) will, for large value of n, have an approximately normal distribution with mean μ and standard error as (σ/√n)
The sample size is 100 and thus it's very large because it's bigger than minimum of 30 for approximate distribution.
Thus, SE = (σ/√n) = 4/√100 = 4/10 = 0.4
Thus,from the central limit theorem I described, we can say that the distribution is approximately normal with mean = 2.8 and standard error = 0.4

La circunferencia es tangente a la recta 3x - 4y = 34 en el punto (10, -1) Y también es tangente a la recta 4x + 3y = 12 en el punto (3, O). Hallar la ecuación de la circnferencia.
Answer:
La ecuación del círculo en la forma es (x - 145/12)² + (y - 109/16)² = (545/48)²
Step-by-step explanation:
La información dada son;
La primera línea tangente al círculo en el punto (10, -1) = 3·x - 4·y = 34
La segunda línea tangente al círculo en el punto (3, 0) = 4·x + 3·y = 12
Las rectas tangentes dadas en forma de pendiente e intersección, y = m·x + c son;
3·x - 4·y = 34
4·y = 34 - 3·x
y = 34/4 - 3/4·x = 8.5 - 3/4·x
Primera tangente
y = 8.5 - 3/4·x
3·y = 12 - 4·x
y = 12/3 - 4/3·x = 4 - 4/3·x
Segunda tangente
y = 4 - 4/3·x
La recta de la ecuación de los radios es perpendicular a la tangente y se encuentra con la tangente en el punto de intersección con el círculo como sigue;
La primera ecuación radial tiene pendiente, m = 1/(-3/4) = 4/3
La ecuación en forma de punto y pendiente es y - (-1) = 4/3×(x - 10)
y = 4/3×(x - 10) - 1 = 4/3·x - 40/3 - 1 = 4/3·x - 43/3
Por tanto, la ecuación del primer radio es;
y = 4/3·x - 43/3
La segunda ecuación radial tiene pendiente, m = 1/(-4/3) = 3/4
La ecuación en forma de punto y pendiente es y - 0 = 3/4×(x - 3)
y = 3/4×(x - 3) = 3/4·x - 9/4
Por tanto, la ecuación del segundo radio es;
y = 3/4·x - 9/4
Los dos radios se encuentran en el centro dado como sigue;
4/3·x - 43/3 = 3/4·x - 9/4
4/3·x - 3/4·x = 43/3 - 9/4
7/12·x = 145/12
x = 145/12
y = 3/4·x - 9/4 = 3/4·145/12 - 9/4 = 109/16
Las coordenadas del centro = (h, k) = (145/12, 109/16)
La longitud del radio, r = √((109/16 - 0)² + (145/12 - 3)²) = 545/48
La ecuación del círculo en la forma (x - h)² + (y - k)² = r² es, por lo tanto;
(x - 145/12)² + (y - 109/16)² = (545/48)².

A ball is dropped from a height of 8 feet. If every time it bounces, it bounces 60% of its previous height, what is the total distance traveled by the ball?
Answer:
20feetStep-by-step explanation:
Initial height of the ball = 8feet
If it bounces 60% of its previous height, its new height will be;
60% of 8
= 60/100 * 8
= 480/100
= 4.8 ft
If it bounces 60% of its current distance, new height will be expressed as;
60% of 4.8
= 0.6 * 4.8
= 2.88
The height of the ball will keep reducing and form a geometric progression of the form 8, 4.8, 2.88...
In order to get the total distance traveled by the ball, we need to calculate the sum to infinity of the sequence;
S∞ = a/1-r where;
a is the first term = 8
r is the common ratio
[tex]r = \frac{4.8}{8} = \frac{2.88}{4.8}\\r = 0.6[/tex]
Substitute into the formula;
S∞ = a/1-r
S∞ = 8/1-0.6
S∞ = 8/0.4
S∞ = 20feet
Hence the total distance traveled by the ball is 20feet

A 30-m tall building casts a shadow. The distance from the top of the building to the tip of the shadow is 32 m. Find the length of the shadow. If necessary, round your answer to the nearest tenth.
Answer: 11.1 m
Step-by-step explanation:
This can be solved by the Pythagorean theorem where;
c² = a² + b²
c is the hypotenuse which is the distance from the top of the building to the tip of the shadow.
a is the height
c is the length
32² = 30² + b²
b² = 32² - 30²
b² = 1,024 - 900
b² = 124
b = √124
b = 11.1 m
Baking flour which costs $4.05/kg is made by combining bleached flour which costs
$5.75/kg with unbleached flour which costs $1.45/kg. Find the number of kg of bleached flour and unbleached flour required to make 17.2 kg of baking flour.
A) 11 kg of bleached flour, 6.2 kg of unbleached flour
B) 13.7 kg of bleached flour, 3.5 kg of unbleached flour
C) 12.7 kg of bleached flour, 4.5 kg of unbleached flour
D) 10.4 kg of bleached flour, 6.8 kg of unbleached flour
Answer: D) 10.4 kg of bleached flour, 6.8 kg of unbleached flour
Step-by-step explanation:
First find the cost of making a kg of Baking flour.
Assume that x kgs of bleached flour and y kgs of unbleached flour make a kg of Baking flour.
The formulas would be;
x + y = 1
5.75x + 1.45y = 4.05
x = 1 - y
5.75 ( 1 - y) + 1.45y = 4.05
5.75 - 5.75y + 1.45y = 4.05
5.75 - 4.3y = 4.05
4.3y = 5.75 - 4.05
4.3y = 1.7
y = 1.7/4.3
y = 0.395 kg
x = 1 - 0.395
= 0.605kg
To make 1kg of Baking flour, 0.605kg of bleached flour and 0.395kg of unbleached flour is required.
To make 17.2kg of Baking flour;
Bleached flour = 0.605 * 17.2 = 10.4kg
Unbleached flour = 0.395 * 17.2 = 6.8 kg

Kelley writes the expression n + 2 to model the phrase "Xander studied two more hours than Nandini." Which best explains the accuracy of Kelley's expression?
Answer:
Following are the solution to this question:
Step-by-step explanation:
It was right because the "Two" is "2," "more is" and "+" are two the most hours than Nandini and "n," so 2+n or n+2 is a true, phrase of Nandini's transcription".
Now, this vector n is unknown, so the number of hours Nandini researched should reflect.
Two further hours which Nandini researched Xander. So, Xander studied the number of hours = n + 2 or 2+ n. Kalley has therefore written a correct word.
Answer:
It is accurate. In the phrase “two more hours than Nandini,” “two” is “2,” “more” is “+,” and Nandini’s study time is unknown or “n,” so 2 + n or n + 2 are correct translations.

what is d? -16(d + 1) = -20
Answer: d = 1/4
Step-by-step explanation:
−16(d+1)=−20
Step 1: Simplify both sides of the equation.
−16(d+1)=−20
(−16)(d)+(−16)(1)=−20(Distribute)
−16d+−16=−20
−16d−16=−20
Step 2: Add 16 to both sides.
−16d−16+16=−20+16
−16d=−4
Step 3: Divide both sides by -16.
-16d = -4
-16 -16
d = 1/4
