A gold, a silver, and a bronze medal are awarded in an Olympic event. In how many possible ways can the medals be awarded for a 200-meter sprint in which there are 10 runner?

720 possible ways

Step-by-step explanation:

The gold is awarded to the first position, the silver is awarded to the second position while the bronze is awarded to the third position.

The first position can be taken by any of the 10 runners

Now, the second position can be taken by remaining 9 runners

while the third position can be taken by the renaming 8 runners.

Thus, the number of ways in which these medals can be awarded = 10 * 9 * 8 = 720 ways

1 number

if we use a graphing calculator, there is only one such number that satisfies the conclusion of the mean value theorem, that is, a number such that

where the right-hand side is the average rate of change of f on the interval [0.5,0.75], which is the slope of the secant line.

in the attached graph, the black line is the secant line which has its slope as the average rate of change of f on [0.5,0.75], while the orange line is the only tangent line to the graph of f in the interval that satisfies the mvt conclusion.

34.5 cm

step-by-step explanation:

generally for a circular segment of angle, θ° and radius r

arc length

= (θ/360) x circumference

= (θ/360) x 2πr

in our case, θ = 60°, π=3.142 and r = 33 cm

substitute into above formula

arc length

= (60/360) x 2(3.142)( 33) = 34.5 cm
