Answer:

3600 ways

Step-by-step explanation:

person A has 7 places to choose from :

→ He has 2 places ,one to the extreme left of the line ,the other to the extreme right of the line

If he chose one of those two ,person B will have 5 choices and the other 5 persons will have 5! Choices.

⇒ number of arrangements = 2×5×5! = 1 200

→ But Person A also , can choose one of the 5 places in between the two extremes .

If he chose one of those 5 ,person B will have 4 choices and the other 5 persons wil have 5! Choices.

⇒ number of arrangements = 5×4×5! = 2 400

In Total they can be arranged in :

1200 + 2400 = 3600 ways

Use the context of a 24-pack of soda to explain why 3/8 is NOT equivalent to 5/12 . Answer in number of cans.
juin [17]

Answer:

In a 24 pack of soda, 1/8 would be 3 cans (24/8 = 3). 1/12 would be 2 cans (24/12=2).

So 3/8 is 9 cans of soda and 5/12 is 10 cans of soda, so they are not equivalent because the number of soda cans is not the same.

20 points !!! -3/8x-20+2x>6
Semenov [28]

Answer:

x > 16

Step-by-step explanation:

- \frac{3}{8} x -20+2x>6

Add 20 to both sides:

-  \frac{3}{8} x + 2x > 26

Multiply 8 on both sides:

- 3x + 16x > 208

13x > 208

Divide by 13 on both sides:

x > 16
