a) if the two gloves someone receives might both be for the left hand or right hand.
b) if each sister gets one left and one right.
Soln:
a) So i thought about dissectng the problem first into finding the number of ways in which I could make pairs of gloves:
C(12, 2)
then I asked how many ways could the sets of gloves be assigned amongst the 6 sisters:
<span><span>6!</span><span>6!</span></span>
and taking the product of this would give me the amount of ways this could occur:
= C(12,2) * 6!
then for part b)
using this same idea except:
C(6,1) C(6,1) for the left and right glove each .
the C(6,1)*C(6,1)*6!
Right way to think them through?
Answer:
The top one
Step-by-step explanation:
Just count how many are in each catagory
the integers are positive 7 and negative 8
Step-by-step explanation:
<em /><em>PURPLE MARBLES=P
WHITE MARBLES=W
</em>First, write out an equation showing the number of purple marbles.
P=5W-6
Then, write out the main equation.
W+P=96
W+5W-6=96
Add 6 to both sides.
W+5W=102
6W=102
Divide both sides by 6
W=17
Now that we know there are 17 white marbles, we can go back to the equation about how many purple marbles there are.
P=5W-6
Plug in the value for W, which is 17.
P=5(17)-6
P=85-6
P=79
To make sure your answer is correct, check your work by plugging in the values for P+W=96.
79+17=96
Answer: There are 79 purple marbles.
70% = 70/100
divide 70 by 100
=0.7
