Answer:

42

Step-by-step explanation:

The permutation formula is P(n, r) = n! / (n - r)!. We know that n = 7 and r = 2 so we can write:

7! / (7 - 2)!

= 7! / 5!

= 7 * 6 * 5 * 4 * 3 * 2 * 1 / 5 * 4 * 3 * 2 * 1

= 7 * 6 (5 * 4 * 3 * 2 * 1 cancels out)

= 42

Answer:

\boxed{42}

Step-by-step explanation:

Apply the permutation formula.

P(n,r)=\frac{n!}{ (n-r)!}

P=number \: of \: permutations\\n=total \: number \: of \: objects \: in \: the \: set\\r=number \: of \: choosing \: objects \: from \: the \: set\\

n=7\\r=2

Plug in the values and evaluate.

P(7,2)=\frac{7!}{ (7-2)!}

P(7,2)=\frac{7!}{ (5)!}

P(7,2)=\frac{5040}{120}

P(7,2)=42

Estimate the unit rate if 12 pairs of socks sell for $5.79.
11111nata11111 [884]
If 12 pairs of socks sell for $5.79, then the unit rate is 12 : 5.79. If we want to find a unit rate for one pair of socks, we need to divide 5.79 by 12:
5.79 / 12 = 0,4825
So the unit rate is 1 : 0.4825

salantis [7]
Average speed is the total distance traveled by an object at a certain period of time. To calculate for the average speed we divide the total distance covered by the total time. We do as follows:

Average speed = 560 meters / 25 seconds = 22.4 m/s

zvonat [6]
14C3 = 14! / 11!3! 

<span>= 14 x13 x12 / 3x2x1 </span>
<span>= 2184 / 6 </span>
<span>= 364 different combinations </span>

<span>The first movie can be any of 14 </span>
<span>As you have already seen one the second movie can be any of the 13 remaining </span>
<span>As you have already seen two the third movie can be any of the 12 remaining. </span>

<span>Therefore there are 14 x 13 x 12 = 2184 PERMUTATIONS of movies you can see. </span>
<span>However among those 2184 different permutations will be instances where you have watched the same three movies but just in a different order. </span>
<span>eg ET, The Piano, Harry Potter = ET Harry Potter The Piano = The Piano, ET, Harry Potter = The Piano Harry Potter ET = Harry Potter ET The Piano = Harry Potter The Piano ET. </span>
<span>For each set of three films there are 3! or 3x2x1 or SIX different ways they can be arranged in. </span>
<span>Therefore we need to DIVIDE the above 2184 permutations by 6 to get the number of COMBINATIONS of different films that can be watched. </span>
<span>2184 / 6 = 364</span>

Alekssandra [29.7K]

Answer:

  D. insufficient data

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to know the number of assignments in each class before we can tell the probability of interest.

__

If we assume the same number of assignments in each class, then 25.1% of on-time assignments were in physics. We note this is not an answer choice, further confirming we have <em>insufficient data</em>.
