We can factor 120 into
2 * 2 * 2 * 3 * 5

I think there are nine different possibilities
1) 8 * 3 * 5
2) 4 * 2 * 15
3) 4 * 6 * 5
4) 4 * 10 * 3
5) 2 * 2 * 30
6) 2 * 3 * 20
7) 2 * 5 * 12
8) 2 * 6 * 10
9) 2 * 15 * 4

Solution:

It is given that,

Product of three Whole numbers = 120

Factorizing 120 into Prime Factors

120 = 2 ×2 ×2×3×5

Number of Possibilities

=Arrangement of 5 things which are numbers(2,2,2,3,5) when 3 of them are equal

= \frac{5!}{3!}=\frac{5 \times 4 \times 3!}{3!}=5 \times 4 =20

 A movie theater sends out a coupon for 85​% off the price of a ticket. Write an equation for the​ situation, where y is the pri
ra1l [238]

Answer:

y=0.15x

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Original price of the ticket is x

Price after using the coupon is y

Coupon discount is 85% of x=0.85x

Therefore, the price after applying coupon is given as the difference of the original price and the coupon discount. That is,

y=x-0.85x=x(1-0.85)=0.15x\\\therefore y=0.15x

The graph is shown below. The graph passes through the origin as the above relationship is a proportional relationship.

The line y=0.15x strictly remains in the first quadrant as both x and y can't be negative as they represent price of tickets and price can never have negative values. Hence, only the first quadrant has both the values of x and y positive.

Write a sequence with exactly 5 terms and follow the pattern rule:
Aloiza [94]

Answer:

The pattern. 1, 4, 9, 16, … has no common difference. An explicit pattern rule is a pattern rule that tells you how to get any term in the pattern without listing all the terms before it. For example, an explicit pattern rule for 5, 8, 11, 14, … uses the first term (5) and the common difference (3).
