Answer:

462 ways

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula to use in solving this problem is given as the Combination formula

The Combination formula is given as

C(n , r) = nCr = n!/r! (n - r)!

We are told that a food bakery has 12 pies unsold at the end of the day which they intend to share to 6 food banks

n = 12, r = 6

In order to ensure that at least 1 food bank gets 1 pie, we have:

n - 1 = 12 - 1 = 11

r - 1 = 6 - 1 = 5

Hence,

C(11, 5) = 11C5

= 11!/ 5! ×(11 - 5)!

= 11!/5! × 6!

= (11 × 10 × 9 × 8 × 7 × 6 × 5 × 4 × 3 × 2 × 1)/ (5 × 4 × 3 × 2 × 1) ×( 6 × 5 × 4 × 3 × 2 × 1)

= 462 ways

Hello!

First you to do 65 * 0.20

0.20 is 20% as a decimal

65 * 0.20 = 13

$13 is how much John saves.

To find out how much the skateboard cost you subtract how much he saved by the cost of the skateboard

65 - 13 = 52

The skateboard cost $52

Hope this helps!

The student council is selling tickets to a school dance. One teacher decides to pay $10 for his class, and the students in the
Lostsunrise [7]

Hi,

x + y = 350                    (equation 1)

3x + 2y = 950                 (equation 2)


Use Substitution Method

Isolate variable x in equation 1


x = 350 – y                     (equation 3)


Substitute equation 3 into equation 2


3(350 – y) + 2y = 950

1050 – 3y + 2y = 950

3y – 2y = 1050 – 950

y = 100


Substitute y = 100 into equation 1


x + 100 = 350

x = 250


Answer: 250 $3 tickets and 100 $2 tickets were sold.

Why is the equation y-y1=m(x-x1) called the point-slope form?
MatroZZZ [7]

Answer:

The equation of the line with slope m = 2 and passing through the point (1, 1) will be:

y = 2x

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that the point-slope form of the line equation is

y-y_1=m\left(x-x_1\right)

where

  • m is the slope of the line
  • (x₁, y₁) is the point

The formula y-y_1=m\left(x-x_1\right) is termed as the point-slope form of the line equation because if we know one point on a certain line and the slope of that line, then we can easily get the line equation with this formula and, hence, determine all other points on the line.

For example, if we are given the point (1, 1) and slope m = 2

Then substituting the values m = 2 and the point (1, 2)

y-y_1=m\left(x-x_1\right)

y - 2 = 2(x-1)

y - 2 = 2x-2

y = 2x-2+2

y = 2x

Therefore, the equation of the line with slope m = 2 and passing through the point (1, 1) will be:

y = 2x
