Apresidential candidate plans to begin her campaign by visiting the capitals in 44 of 4343 states. what is the probability that she selects the route of fourfour specific capitals? is it practical to list all of the different possible routes in order to select the one that is best?

If the 4 states have to be in a specific order say ABCD, then the total number of different possible routes is:

 43P4 = 2,961,840

So the probability is:

1 / 2,961,840 = 3.38 x 10^-7

But if the 4 states can be in any order such as DBAC, ACBD etc, then the total number of different possible routes is:

 43C4 = 123,410

So the probability is:

1 / 123,410 = 8.1 x 10^-6

No I don’t think it is practical to list all the different possible routes to select the one that is best. We can simply use mathematical models to solve for that one.

it would be:

c.parallelogram.

step-by-step explanation:

f(x)=2x^2 -1 

translation is a function transformation that transform the function in a way of translating. by translating the function its graph is moved  up an down. moving the function f(x) 2 units to the left will be the new function g(x) with the equation: g(x)=f(x+2)=2(x+2)^2 -1
