Answer:
P43=4!(4–3)!=241=24
Step-by-step explanation:
There are four choices you can make for the lead reindeer. For each possible choice, there are then three remaining you can choose to fly second, making 4×3=12 choices for the lead pair. For each possible choice there are two remaining reindeer to take up the back position, making 12×2=24 choices for the team of three.
This type of problem is called a permutation problem, and we write Pnr for the number of ways of choosing r items from n possibilities when the order of the items matters. In this case we are choosing 3 reindeer from 4 possibilities, and the order they appear in the flying line does matter, so the answer we want is P43. The general formula is Pnr=n!(n−r)!. For the answer we are looking for we therefore have:
P43=4!(4–3)!=241=24
Answer:
x = 1.5
Step-by-step explanation:
5x - 5 - 3x + 2 = 0
Combine like terms
2x - 3 = 0
Isolate variable x
Add 3 to both sides
2x = 3
Divide both sides by 2
x = 3 ÷ 2
x = 1.5
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
6/4.2 = n/7
Cross multiply
6* 7 = 4.2n
4.2n = 42
n = 42 / 4.2
n = 10

Answer:
You will buy 8 jeans and two shirts.
Step-by-step explanation:
set up a systems of equations
identify your variables
jeans = j (a variable means like 'x')
shirts = s
identify a common way to eliminate a variable
(get a common value in both equations so you can add or subtract to leave on variable in which you can solve for)
