Answer: 1. 1,906,500

2. 840

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Given: There are 125 juniors at the high school.

Total positions = 3 [president,vice president, and secretary]

Then, Number of ways to elect a president,vice president, and secretary( which is in order) out of 125 juniors = $^{125}P_{3}=\dfrac{125!}{(125-3)!}$ [Using permutations]

$=\dfrac{125!}{122!}\\\\=\dfrac{125\times124\times123\times122!!}{122!}\\\\=125\times124\times123\\\\=1906500$

Hence, Required ways =1906500

(2) Given word : "RHOMBUS"

Total letters= 7

By permutation, the umber of 4-letter arrangements = $^7P_4=\dfrac{7!}{(7-4)!}=\dfrac{7!}{3!}$

$=\dfrac{7\times6\times5\times4\times3!}{3!}\\\\= 7\times6\times5\times4\\\\=840$

Hence, required ways = 840

In a circle with center C and radius 6, minor arc AB has a length of 4pi. What is the measure, in radians, of central angle ACB?

valina [46]

To solve this problem, we need to know that
arc length = r θ where θ is the central angle in radians.

We're given
r = 6 (units)
length of minor arc AB = 4pi
so we need to calculate the central angle, θ
Rearrange equation at the beginning,
θ = (arc length) / r = 4pi / 6 = 2pi /3

Answer: the central angle is 2pi/3 radians, or (2pi/3)*(180/pi) degrees = 120 degrees

Susan, a recent college graduate, makes a base salary of $70,000 per year. Susan has federal income tax withholding of $12,000,

Damm [24]

Answer:

Susan's take-home pay $48,645.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Susan, a recent college graduate, makes a base salary of $70,000 per year. Susan has federal income tax withholding of $12,000, and state tax withholding of $4,000. Employers are required to withhold a 6.2% Social Security tax and a 1.45% Medicare tax.

Now, to find Susan's take-home pay.

Basic salary = $70,000.

Now, her tax withholdings:

Federal income tax = $12,000.

State tax = $4,000.

Social security tax = 6.2% of $70,000.

$=\frac{6.2}{100} \times 70,000\\\\=0.062\times 70,000\\\\=\$4340.$
