The University of Montana ski team has seven entrants in a men's downhill ski event. The coach would like the first, second, and third places to go to the team members. In how many ways can the seven team entrants achieve first, second, and third places?

210 ways

Step-by-step explanation:

given that the  University of Montana ski team has seven entrants in a men's downhill ski event.

The coach would like the first, second, and third places to go to the team members.

Since one member can get only one place and order counts here we use permutation

No of ways the seven  team entrants achieve first, second, and third places

= 7P3

=

6,250

step-by-step explanation:

to get the area, multiply 360 by 160.(57,600)

to find out how many bags of fertilizer it will take, first figure out how many square feet one bag can hold. divide 1000 by 8(125) to get the unit rate(how many square feet one pound of fertilizer can hold)and multiply it by 50(6250). if i haven't made a mistake, that is the answer.

x² + 3x + 7 = 0       [ax² + bx + c]

a = 1

b = 3

c = 7

quadratic formula:

    (+/- is this ±)
