Answer:

15

Step-by-step explanation:

Michael has 6 unique books, but 4 not-unique slots. Since the slot is not unique, the orders you pick the 4 books are not important. When order important you use permutation but since the order is not important you use the combination. The calculation will be:

6C4 = \frac{6!}{6!(6-4)!} = 15

There are 15 ways to group the 4 books.

Write an equation of the line through (-1,-5) having slope 2/3. give the answer in standard form.
jekas [21]

keeping in mind that standard form for a linear equation means

• all coefficients must be integers, no fractions

• only the constant on the right-hand-side

• all variables on the left-hand-side, sorted

• "x" must not have a negative coefficient

\bf (\stackrel{x_1}{-1}~,~\stackrel{y_1}{-5})~\hspace{10em} \stackrel{slope}{m}\implies \cfrac{2}{3} \\\\\\ \begin{array}{|c|ll} \cline{1-1} \textit{point-slope form}\\ \cline{1-1} \\ y-y_1=m(x-x_1) \\\\ \cline{1-1} \end{array}\implies y-\stackrel{y_1}{(-5)}=\stackrel{m}{\cfrac{2}{3}}[x-\stackrel{x_1}{(-1)}]\implies y+5=\cfrac{2}{3}(x+1)

\bf \stackrel{\textit{multiplying both sides by }\stackrel{LCD}{3}}{3(y+5)=3\left( \cfrac{2}{3}(x+1) \right)}\implies 3y+15 = 2(x+1) \implies 3y+15=2x+2 \\\\\\ 3y=2x-13\implies -2x+3y=-13\implies 2x-3y=13
