If I have eight numbers and i am tasked to decide which of the set of given numbers is the smallest comparing 2 numbers at a time, I will have 28 comparisons in all. Trying all combinations for the first number, you have 7. Trying all combinations for the second number nit including its comparison to the first number (because it will be redundant), you will have 6 comparisons an so on. Adding it all up, you have 7+6+5+4+3+2+1=28.

What is the value of x?
Mariana [72]
The value of X is 39 degrees. You have to add 102 degrees and 39 degrees to get 141 degrees. All triangles equal up to 180, so subtract 141 from 180, and you get 39 degrees.

m_a_m_a [10]

Answer:

We can start by rewriting the initial equation x +10y=260 in order to express how y depends on x.

This is a linear function ( it's a straight line). Linear functions have two intercepts, y and x.

To find x-intercept (also called zero of a function) we set y=0 and we solve for x.

This means that at x=260 our function has a value of 0. y(x) represents a distance from the school. This means that when y(x) is 0 our athlete reached school (finished the race), so this also answers your second question. The time it takes an athlete to finish the race is 260 minutes.

The y-intercept a value of our function at x=0. This gives us a distance of our athlete from the school at the start of the race. We find this by plugin x=0 in our equation. We get that y=26 when x=0. This makes perfect sense. Our athlete is 26 miles away from high school at the start of the race.
