Answer:

x = -6

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1 :

Pulling out like terms :

1.1 Pull out like factors :

-2x - 12 = -2 • (x + 6)

Equation at the end of step 1 :

Step 2 :

Equations which are never true :

2.1 Solve : -2 = 0

This equation has no solution.

A a non-zero constant never equals zero.

Solving a Single Variable Equation :

2.2 Solve : x+6 = 0

Subtract 6 from both sides of the equation :

x = -6

One solution was found :

x = -6

Six sophomores and 14 freshmen are competing for two alternate positions on the debate team. Which expression represents the pro

Elanso [62]

Answer:

<em>Choose the first alternative</em>

$\displaystyle P=\frac{_{1}^{6}\textrm{C}\ _{1}^{5}\textrm{C}}{_{2}^{20}\textrm{C}}$

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Probabilities</u>

The requested probability can be computed as the ratio between the number of ways to choose two sophomores in alternate positions $(N_s)$ and the total number of possible choices $(N_t)$ , i.e.

$\displaystyle P=\frac{N_s}{N_t}$

There are 6 sophomores and 14 freshmen to choose from each separate set. There are 20 students in total

We'll assume the positions of the selections are NOT significative, i.e. student A/student B is the same as student B/student A.

To choose 2 sophomores out of the 6 available, the first position has 6 elements to choose from, the second has now only 5

$_{1}^{6}\textrm{C}\ _{1}^{5}\textrm{C} \text{ ways to do it}$

The total number of possible choices is

$_{2}^{20}\textrm{C} \text{ ways to do it}$

The probability is then

$\boxed{\displaystyle P=\frac{_{1}^{6}\textrm{C}\ _{1}^{5}\textrm{C}}{_{2}^{20}\textrm{C}}}$

Choose the first alternative
