Answer:

2380 committees of size 7 meet the given requirement.

Step-by-step explanation:

The question is basically asking us to find the number of ways in which 7 persons can be selected in a committee, such that 3 members ( Mary, Sue and Tom ) are always included.

Now, there are a total of 20 persons in the office, out of which 3 members are always included in the committee.

So, 3 members can be selected in 3_C__3 ways.

Now, 4 members are to be selected  out of the remaining 17  persons in the office.

So 4 members can be selected in 17_C__4 ways.

And so the total number of ways of selecting 7-member committee with the given requirement = 3_C__3 x 17_C__4 = 2380 ways.

Which of the following describes the correct process for solving the equation 2x − 4 = 20 and arrives at the correct solution?
Alexxandr [17]

Answer:

a) Add 4 to both sides, and then divide by 2. The solution is x=12.

Step-by-step explanation:

Question:

Which of the following describes the correct process for solving the equation 2x − 4 = 20 and arrives at the correct solution?

a) Add 4 to both sides, and then divide by 2. The solution is x = 12.

b) Divide both sides by −4, and then subtract 2. The solution is x = −7.

c) Subtract 4 from both sides, and then divide by 2. The solution is x = −12.

d) Multiply both sides by −4, and then divide by 2. The solution is x = −40.

Solution:

Given equation:

2x-4=20

We need to determine the steps in order to solve for x.

Solving for x.

Step 1: Adding 4 both sides.

2x-4+4=20+4

2x=24

Step 2: Dividing both sides by 2.

\frac{2x}{2}=\frac{24}{2}

∴ x=12

Thus, we added 4 both sides and then divided both sides by 2 to get solution = 12

Given:

The equation is

\left(z+\dfrac{6}{7}\right)+\dfrac{2}{14}=-1

To find:

The solution of the given equation.

Solution:

We have,

\left(z+\dfrac{6}{7}\right)+\dfrac{2}{14}=-1

It can be written as

\left(z+\dfrac{6}{7}\right)+\dfrac{1}{7}=-1

\left(z+\dfrac{6}{7}\right)=-1-\dfrac{1}{7}

Multiply both sides by 7.

7z+6=-7-1

7z+6=-8

7z=-8-6

7z=-14

Divide both sides by 7.

z=\dfrac{-14}{7}

z=-2

Therefore, the value of z is -2.
