$\text{C. }60$

Step-by-step explanation:

Question from image:

"The digits 1, 2, 3, 4, and 5 can be formed to arrange 120 different numbers. How many of these numbers will have the digits 1 and 2 in increasing order? For example, 14352 and 51234 are two such numbers."

Let's start by taking a look with the number 1. There are four possible places 1 could be, because there needs to be space for the 2 after it.

Checkmarks mark where the 1 can be, the x marks where it cannot be.

$\underline{\checkmark}\:\underline{\checkmark}\:\underline{\checkmark}\:\underline{\checkmark}\:\underline{X}$

Let's start with the first position:

$\underline{\checkmark}\:\underline{\#}\:\underline{\#}\:\underline{\#}\:\underline{\#}$

There are four places the 2 can be. For each of these four places, we can arrange the remaining 3 digits in 3!=6 ways. Therefore, there are $4\cdot 6=\boxed{24}$ possible numbers when 1 is the first digit of the number.

Continue this process with the remaining possible positions for 1.

Second position:

$\underline{X}\underline{\checkmark}\:\underline{\#}\:\underline{\#}\:\underline{\#}$

There are three places the 2 can be, since the 2 must be behind the 1. For each of these three places, the remaining 3 digits can be arranged in 3!=6 ways. Therefore, there are $3\cdot 6=\boxed{18}$ possible numbers when 1 is the second digit of the number.

The pattern continues. Next there will be 2 places to place the 2. For each of these, there are 3!=6 ways to rearrange the remaining 3 digits for a total of $2\cdot 6=\boxed{12}$ possible numbers when 1 is the third digit of the number.

Lastly, when 1 is the fourth digit of the number, there is only 1 place the 2 can be. For this one place, there are still 3!=6 ways to rearrange the remaining three numbers. Therefore, there are $1\cdot 6=\boxed{6}$ possible numbers when 1 is the fourth digit of the number.

Thus, there are $24+18+12+6=\boxed{60}$ numbers that will have the digits 1 and 2 in increasing order, from a set of 120 five-digit numbers created by the digits 1 through 5, where no digit may be repeated.

Where is the graph function?

Answer from: Quest

the best buy, is the 4- kilogram bag of lollipops for $18.40.

step-by-step explanation:

i found my answer by dividing the cost of each bag by their respective weights.

14.88 divided by 2 = 7.44

17.29 divided by 3 = 5.77

18.4 divided by 4 = 4.6

24.4 divided by 5 = 4.88

by this, i found that the 4 kilo bag is the best buy.

An automated water dispenser fills packets with one liter of water on average, with a standard deviation of 5 milliliter. the manual says that after a year of operation the dispenser should be tested to see if it needs recalibration. a year later a number of filled packets are set aside and measured separately. it is found that the average packet now contains about 0.995 liters. does the dispenser need calibration? explain your answer.
