Let
x--------->  the larger number
y---------> the smaller number

we know that
x+y=148------> equation 1
x=3y-2------> equation 2

substitute 2 in 1
[3y-2]+y=148--------> 4y=150---------> y=150/4------> y=37.5
x=3y-2----> x=3*37.5-2-----> x=110.5

the answer is
the larger number is 110.5
the smaller number is 37.5

Find the product. Simplify if possible
KATRIN_1 [288]

−1/3⋅(8 1/7)

change 8 1/7 to an improper fraction

8 1/7 = (7*8 +1)/7 = 57/7

-1/3 * 57/7

-57/21

21 goes into 57 2 times with 15 left over

-2 15/21

divide top and bottom of the fraction by 3

-2 5/7

Choice B

How many 'words' can be made from the name ESTABROK with no restrictions
Bumek [7]

The number of ways in which the name 'ESTABROK' can be made with no restrictions is 40, 320 ways.

<h3>How to determine the number of ways</h3>

Given the word:

ESTABROK

Then n = 8

p = 6

The formula for permutation without restrictions

P = n! ( n - p + 1)!

P = 8! ( 8 - 6 + 1) !

P = 8! (8 - 7)!

P = 8! (1)!

P = 8 × 7 × 6 × 5 × 4 × 3 × 2 × 1 × 1

P = 40, 320 ways

Thus, the number of ways in which the name 'ESTABROK' can be made with no restrictions is 40, 320 ways.
