Answer: 6

Step-by-step explanation:

Let  S= Total colleges

A = colleges are expensive.

B= colleges are  far from home( more than 200 miles away).

Given : n(S)= 20

n(A)=8

n(B)=8

n(A∩B) =2

Then, the number of  college that are not expensive and within 200 miles from home :-

n(A'\cap B')=n(S)-n(A\cup B)\\\\=20-(n(A)+n(B)-N(A\cap B))\ \ [\because\ n(A\cup B)=n(A)+n(B)-N(A\cap B)]\\\\=20-(8+8-2)\\\\=20-14=6

i.e.  the number of  college that are not expensive and within 200 miles from home=6

Hence, the number of possible selections are <u>6</u> .

Trisha and Byron are washing and vacuuming cars to raise money for a class trip. Trisha raised $38 washington 5 cars and vacuumi
ANEK [815]

Answer:

They charged <u>$6</u> for washing and <u>$2</u> for vacuuming the car.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the charge of washing a car be 'x'.

And also let the charge of vacuuming a car be 'y'.

Now according to question, Trisha raised $38 washing 5 cars and vacuuming 4 cars.

So framing the above sentence in equation form, we get;

5x+4y=38\ \ \ \ \ equation\ 1

Again according to question, Byron raises $28 by washing 4 cars and vacuuming 2 cars.

So framing the above sentence in equation form, we get;

4x+2y=28\ \ \ \ \ equation\2

Now multiplying equation 2 by '2', we get;

2(4x+2y)=28\times2\\\\8x+4y=56\ \ \ \ equation\ 3

Now we subtract equation 1 from equation 3 and get;

(8x+4y)-(5x+4y)=56-38\\\\8x+4y-5x-4y=18\\\\3x=18\\\\x=\frac{18}{3}=6

Now substituting the value of 'x' in equation 1, we get;

5x+4y=38\\\\5\times6+4y=38\\\\30+4y=38\\\\4y=38-30=8\\\\y=\frac{8}{4}=2

Hence They charged <u>$6</u> for washing and <u>$2</u> for vacuuming the car.

What does factorial of several numbers mean??
vovikov84 [41]
A factorial of 7 numbers is just multiplying 7 numbers together like this 1*2*3*4*5*6*7, which equals 5040.

If you wanted to get fancy, you could reword the questions and say, "what is the factorial of 5040?" In that case the answer is 1*2*3*4*5*6*7
