<span>The letters wsilutawsiluta have 87178291200 unique combinations. Which we can find via the factorial rule (14x13x12... ect). There are no 14 letter words in english that contain this combination of letters (we can narrow the search by looking for 14 letter words with two W's of which none contain the same combination of letters). Ergo we can conclude the correct unscrambling is more than one word. The letters unscramble to spell 'lawsuit' twice. this is the only correct unscrambling (unless we allow the archaic word williwau). Thus there is a 1 in 87178291200 possibility of randomly unscrambling the letters</span>

Find the value of x when 6-4x = 6x-8x-2.
mestny [16]

Answer:

4

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Simplify both sides of the equation.

6−4x=6x−8x−2

6+−4x=6x+−8x+−2

−4x+6=(6x+−8x)+(−2)(Combine Like Terms)

−4x+6=−2x+−2

−4x+6=−2x−2

Step 2: Add 2x to both sides.

−4x+6+2x=−2x−2+2x

−2x+6=−2

Step 3: Subtract 6 from both sides.

−2x+6−6=−2−6

−2x=−8

Step 4: Divide both sides by -2.

−2x−2=−8−2

x=4

A store had 150 laptops in the month of January. Every month, 20% of the laptops were sold and 10 new laptops were stocked in th
Softa [21]

<u>Answer-</u>

\boxed{\boxed{f(n)=0.8(f(n-1))+10,\ f(0)=150,\ \ n>0}}

<u>Solution-</u>

Here, n represents the number of months and f(n) represents the number of laptops in the store after n months.

As the store had 150 laptops in the month of January or at the beginning.

So f(0)=150

Every month, 20% of the laptops were sold and 10 new laptops were stocked in the store.

As 20% of laptops were sold, so 80% were in the store.

So, after one month total number of laptops in the store,

\Rightarrow f(1)=0.8(150)+10

\Rightarrow f(1)=0.8(f(0))+10     (\because f(0)=150)

Again after one month total number of laptops in the store,

\Rightarrow f(2)=0.8\times (0.8(150)+10)+10

\Rightarrow f(2)=0.8(f(1))+10     (\because f(1)=0.8(150)+10)

Analyzing the pattern, the recursive function f(n) will be,

f(n)=0.8(f(n-1))+10,\ f(0)=150,\ \ n>0

Indicate the equation of the given line in standard form.The line containing the median of the trapezoid whose vertices are R(-1
maxonik [38]
RS => y - 5 = (8 - 5)/(1 - (-1)) (x - (-1))
y - 5 = 3/2 (x + 1) => slope = 3/2
ST => y - 8 = (-2 - 8)/(7 - 1) (x - 1)
y - 8 = -10/6 (x - 1) = -5/3 (x - 1) => slope = -5/3
TU => y - (-2) = (0 - (-2))/(2 - 7) (x - 7)
y + 2 = 2/5(x - 7) => slope = 2/5
UR => y = 5/(-1 - 2) (x - 2)
y = -5/3 (x - 2) => slope = -5/3

The median is the line joining the midpoints of the non-parallel sides.
Midpoint of RS = ((-1 + 1)/2, (5 + 8)/2) = (0, 13/2)
Midpoint of TU = ((7 + 2)/2, -2/2) = (9/2, -1)

Equation of the line joining (0, 13/2) and (9/2, -1) is given by y - 13/2 = (-1 - 13/2)/(9/2) x
y - 13/2 = (-15/2)/(9/2) x
y - 13/2 = -15/9x
18y - 117 = -30x
30x + 18y = 117
