Answer:
24 Combinations Total
Step-by-step explanation:
METHOD 1 (no advanced math skills needed)
i. Number the friends: a, b, c, and d
ii. List all possible combinations...
- a b c d
- a b d c
- a c b d
- a c d b
- a d b c
- <u>a d c b</u>
- b a c d
- b a d c
- b c a d
- b c d a
- b d a c
- <u>b d c a</u>
- c a b d
- c a d b
- c b a d
- c b d a
- c d a b
- <u>c d b a</u>
- d a b c
- d a c b
- d b a c
- d b c a
- d c a b
- <u>d c b a</u>
To speed up the process instead of sitting here and listing 24 combinations, after two sections you can see that with friend "a" sitting all the way at the left there are six combinations and the same goes for friend "b". You can then multiply 6 (number of combinations with that friend <em>first</em>) and 4 (friends) to get 24.
METHOD 2
n! means the total number for permutations calculation (1 x 2 x ... until you reach <u><em>n</em></u><em> </em>) = 24
Okay, so this is actually relatively simple:
Go up 44 units on the y-axis, where x=0, and put a point. Now, since the slope is 3x, you move 3 units up, and 1 unit right, and place a point. Do this about 3 times, continuing to make points up 3, over 1. You can also move 3 units down and 1 unit left from the point at (0,44) because by moving down, you move -3 units, and by moving left, you move -1 units. This causes the negatives to cancel out, and you keep the slope of 3.
I hope this explanation makes sense; good luck!
To solve algebraically:
Plug in any number for x, besides 0 because the y-intercept is (0,44). We will use 1 for our x.
y=44+3x
y=44+3(1)
y=44+3
y=47
And so, (1, 47) would be our point
You can use -1, as well.
y=44+3(-1)
y=44-3
y=41
(-1, 44) would be our point
Answer:
1944x^2.
Step-by-step explanation:
sqrt 2x^2 * sqrt18^5
= sqrt2x^2 * (sqrt(9^5*2^5))
= sqrt 2 x^2 * (sqrt9^5 * sqrt 2^5)
= sqrt2 x^2 * (243* sqrt2^5)
= 2^0.5 (243 * 2^2.5) x^2
= 2^3 * 243 x^2
= 1944x^2.
