4(x+2)+2=14
4x+8+2=14
4x+10=14
Subtract 10 from both sides
4x=4
Divide by 4 on both sides
x=1
The first choice can be any one of the 8 side dishes.
For each of these . . .
The 2nd choice can be any one of the remaining 7.
Total number of ways to pick 2 out of 8 = (8 x 7) = 56 ways .
BUT ...
That doesn't mean you can get 56 different sets of 2 side dishes.
For each different pair, there are 2 ways to choose them . . .
(first A then B), and (first B then A). Either way, you wind up with (A and B).
So yes, there are 56 different 'WAYS' to choose 2 out of 8.
But there are only 28 different possible results, and 2 'ways'
to get each result.
Answer:
1 1/12
Step-by-step explanation:
3/4 + 1/3
Get a common denominator of 12
3/4 * 3/3 = 9/12
1/3 * 4/4 =4/12
9/12 + 4/12
13/12
12/12 + 1/12
1 1/12
