Answer: 6000 steps Step-by-step explanation: 1/15 +1/10+1/2=2/30+3/30+15/30=20/30=2/3. Therefore, 2/3 equals 12000 steps, meaning 1/3 is 6000 steps. Overall, she should tally 18000 steps, and she has recorded 12000 steps, hence 18000-12000=6000 steps.

The perimeter of the norwegian flag is 190 inches. What are the dimensions of the flag?
zzz [12365]
<span>The flag's dimensions are 40 inches by 55 inches.

Reasoning<span>:
The perimeter equals the sum of all sides. Being rectangular, opposite sides have equal lengths. Thus, the equation is
y + 11/8 y + y + 11/8 y = 190.

Simplifying, we get
2y + 22/8 y = 190.

Expressing 22/8 as a mixed fraction results in
2y + 2 3/4 y = 190.

Combining terms: 4 3/4 y = 190.

Divide both sides by 4 3/4:
y = 190 ÷ 4 3/4.

Converting 4 3/4 to an improper fraction: y = 190 ÷ 19/4.

Dividing by a fraction means multiplying by its reciprocal:
y = 190 × 4/19 = 760/19 = 40.

Since y = 40, calculate 11/8 y = 11/8 × 40 = 440/8 = 55.</span></span>

In regional spelling bee, the 8 finalists consist of 3 boys and 5 girls. Find the number of sample point the sample space S for
PIT_PIT [12445]

Answer:

i) A total of 40320 different arrangements

ii) For the initial 3 spots, there are 336 different combinations.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: The total finalists = 8

The count of boys = 3

The count of girls = 5

To determine the number of sample point in the sample space S for possible arrangements, we calculate the factorial of 8!

The number of possible arrangements equals 8!

= 1 x 2 x 3 x 4 x 5 x 6 x 7 x 8

= 40320

ii) Among the 8 finalists, we must select the first 3 spots. The sequence matters, hence we utilize permutation.

nPr =\frac{n!}{(n - r)!}

Here n = 8 and r = 3

Substituting n = 8 and r = 3 into the formula, we arrive at

8P3 = \frac{8!}{(8 - 3)!}

= \frac{8!}{5!} \\= \frac{1.2.3.4.5.6.7.8}{1.2.3.4.5}

= 6.7.8

= 336

Thus, there are 336 different arrangements for the first 3 spots.

Which shows one way to determine the factors of 4x3 + x2 – 8x – 2 by grouping?
Zina [12379]
Begin by grouping the first two terms together and the last two together, then factor and redistribute

(4x^3+x^2)+(-8x-2)
(x^2)(4x+1)+(-2)(4x+1)
x^2(4x+1)-2(4x+1)
the answer is the first one
