<span>The y variable has the same coefficient so use elimination (subtract equations).

-2x = 8 - 6y
-(-15x = 21 - 6y)
------------------------
13x = -13 + 0

x = -1
Use this to find y in either equation. </span>
<span>-2(-1) = 8 - 6y
2 = 8 - 6y
2 - 8 = -6y
-6 = -6y
y = 1

(x,y) = (-1, 1)

densk [106]

Answer: There are 177100 possible groups.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: Total employees = 25

Number of employees wants to choose = 6

The combination of n things taken r at a time is given by:-

$^nC_r=\frac{n!}{r!(n-r)!}$

Put n = 25 and r= 6, we get

$^{25}C_6=\frac{25!}{6!(25-6)!}\\\\=\frac{25\times24\times23\times22\times21\times20\times19!}{6!19!}\\\\=177100$

Hence, there are 177100 possible groups.
