Distribute 2(1-5a)
8a+2-10a<20
Combine like terms
-2a+2<20
Subtract 2 from both sides
-2a<18
Divide both sides by -2, when dividing by a negative number flip the sign
So the answer is a>-9

Okay. Basically, a is greater than or equal to 9.
First, you do distribute the 2.
8a+2-10a(< or =)20
Subtract two on both sides.
8a-10a(< or =)18
Then subtract 10a from 8a
-2a(< or =)18
Divide by two on both sides
and switch around the greater than sign since you divided by a <span>-2
</span>a(> or =)-9
<span>And if you check, -9 works, -8 works, and -10 doesn't work.</span>

Ralph the monkey is looking down at a 59° angle from the top of a tree. There are bananas on the ground 12.4 ft from the base of
aliya0001 [1]

This forms a right angled triangle and Ralph flies down the hypotenuse x,

so using trigonometry:-

sin 59 = 12.4 / x

x = 12.4 / sin 59

= 14.47 feet to nearest hundredth.

Using the letters in the word INNOVATIVE, find the number of permutations that can be formed using 4 letters at a time. Show you
lyudmila [28]

Answer:  1) 5040 and 2) 165

Step-by-step explanation:

1) Here total number of letters = 10

The number of permutations that can be formed using 4 letters at a time

= P (10, 4)

= 10_P_4

= \frac{10!}{(10-4)!}

=  \frac{10!}{6!}

= \frac{10\times 9\times 8\times 7\times 6!}{6!}

= 10 × 9 × 8 × 7

= 5040

2) Here the total number of machine = 11

The different combinations of machines can Geoff choose from to use

= 11_C_3

= \frac{11!}{(11-3)!3!}

= \frac{11!}{8!3!}

= \frac{11\times 10\times 9\times 8!}{8!\times 6}

= 11 × 5 × 3

= 165
