Answer:
x = 4
Step-by-step explanation:
2 + 3(3x - 6) = 5(x - 3) + 15
Expand the parenthesis:
2 + 9x - 18 = 5x - 15 + 15
Simplify:
9x - 16 = 5x
Subtract 5x from both sides:
4x - 16 = 0
Add 16 to both sides:
4x = 16
Divide both sides by 4:
x = 4

Answer:
190 possibilities.
Step-by-step explanation:
The problem is called 20 choose 2, given by the formula for combinations
C(20,2) = 20! / (2! (20-2)!) = 190
alternatively, we can reason it this way:
there are 20 choices to choose a captain and 19 choices for an alternate captain for a total of 380 ways.
However, there are 20 choices to choose an alternate captain and 19 choices for a captain for a total of 380 ways.
Since we are essentially double counting every choice of the posts, we need to divide 380 by 2 to get 190 ways.
