Answer: a.) 40320

b.) 336

Step-by-step explanation:

since we have 8 possible positions, with 8 different candidates, then there are 8 possible ways of arranging the first position, 7 possible ways of arranging the Second position, 6 ways of arranging the 3rd position, 5 possible ways od arranging the 4th position, 4 possible ways of arranging the 5th position, 3 possible ways of arranging the 6th position, 2 possible ways of arranging the 7th position and just one way of arranging the 8th position since we have only one person left.

Hence, the Number of possible sample space for different 8 positions is by multiplying all the number of ways we have in our sample space which becomes:

8*7*6*5*4*3*2*1 = 40320.

b.) By the sample space we have, since we've been asked ti arrange for only the firat 3 positions, then we multiply just for the first 3ways of choosing the positions, this becomes:

8*7*6 = 336

A rocket leaves the surface of Earth at time t=0 and travels straight up from the surface. The height, in feet, of the rocket ab
erastovalidia [21]

Answer:

Remember that:

Speed = distance/time.

Then we can calculate the average speed in any segment,

Let's make a model where the average speed at t = t0 can be calculated as:

AS(t0) = (y(b) - y(a))/(b - a)

Where b is the next value of t0, and a is the previous value of t0. This is because t0 is the middle point in this segment.

Then:

if t0 = 100s

AS(100s) = (400ft - 0ft)/(200s - 0s) =   2ft/s

if t0 = 200s

AS(200s) = (1360ft - 50ft)/(300s - 100s) = 6.55 ft/s

if t0 = 300s

AS(300s) = (3200ft - 400ft)/(400s - 200s) =  14ft/s

if t0 = 400s

AS(400s) = (6250s - 1360s)/(500s - 300s) = 24.45 ft/s

So for the given options, t = 400s is the one where the velocity seems to be the biggest.

And this has a lot of sense, because while the distance between the values of time is constant (is always 100 seconds) we can see that the difference between consecutive values of y(t) is increasing.

Then we can conclude that the rocket is accelerating upwards, then as larger is the value of t, bigger will be the average velocity at that point.

UkoKoshka [18]

Answer: The answer is Yes.

Step-by-step explanation:  Given in the question that Radric was asked to define "parallel lines" and he said that parallel lines are lines in a plane that do not have any points in common. We are to decide whether Radric's definition is valid or not.

Parallel lines are defined as lines in a plane which never meets or any two lines in a plane which do not intersect each other at any point are called parallel.

Thus, Radric's definition is valid.

Martin chose two of the cards below. When he found the quotient of the numbers, his answer was -16/9. Write the division problem
Sveta_85 [38]

Answer:

The required division problem he must solve is:

\frac{2}{3} \div \frac{-3}{8} =\frac{2}{3}\times\frac{-8}{3}=\frac{-16}{9}

Step-by-step explanation:

Consider the provided information.

Martin chose two of the cards below. When he found the quotient of the numbers, his answer was -16/9.

As we know that the quotient of the number is a negative number.

Therefore, the sign of both numbers must be different,

Thus we can concluded he must select \frac{2}{3} as one of the card, so that product is a negative number.

Let the selected card be x.

\frac{2}{3} \div x =\frac{-16}{9}\\\\x=\frac{2}{3}\div\frac{-16}{9}\\\\x=\frac{2}{3}\times\frac{-9}{16}\\\\x=\frac{-3}{8}

Hence, the two cards should be \frac{2}{3} and \frac{-3}{8}

The required division problem he must solve is:

\frac{2}{3} \div \frac{-3}{8} =\frac{2}{3}\times\frac{-8}{3}=\frac{-16}{9}

To evaluate the effect of a treatment, a sample of n=8 is obtained from a population with a mean of μ=40 , and the treatment is
Westkost [7]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

a)

Test statistic:

t=\frac{35-40}{\sqrt{\frac{32}{8} } }

t=-2.5

df=8-1=7

critical, t ,values=+/-2.365

here test statistic lie in rejection region,that why null hypothesis fails  

so Yes, its significant.

b)

Test statistic:

t=\frac{35-40}{\sqrt{\frac{72}{8} } }

t=-1.67

df=8-1=7

critical, t ,values=+/-2.365

c)

sample variability increases, therefore likelihood of rejecting the null hypothesis decreases.
