Answer: 92 and 93

Step-by-step explanation:

The two consecutive integers will be written thus

= x + (x + 1)

The sum. x + (x+ 1).= 185'

x + x + 1 = 185

2x + 1 = 185

2x = 185 - 1

2x = 184

x = 184/2

= 92.

Therefore, the Integers are 92 and 93.

Question 2 (1 point) (11.01 MC) Nina has a piece of fabric measuring 5 yards. How many 1-inch strips can be cut from the fabric?

maw [93]

Answer:

180 strips

Step-by-step explanation:

Note that:

1 yard = 36 inches

5 yards = x

Cross Multiply

x = 5 × 36 inches

x = 180 inches

Hence:

1 piece of fabric = 180 inches

How many 1-inch strips can be cut from the fabric?

180 inches = 1 piece of fabric

1 inch = x

x = 180 strips

Suppose we want to choose colors, without replacement, from the colors red, blue, green, and purple.

DerKrebs [107]

The number of ways when the choice is not relevant is 4

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

The number of colors are:

Colors, n = 4

The color to choose are:

r = 3

<u>Relevant choice</u>

When the choice is relevant, we have:

$Ways = ^nP_r$

This gives

$Ways = ^4P_3$

Evaluate

Ways = 24

Hence, the number of ways when the choice is relevant is 24

<u>Not relevant choice</u>

When the choice is not relevant, we have:

$Ways = ^nC_r$

This gives

$Ways = ^4C_3$

Evaluate

Ways = 4

Hence, the number of ways when the choice is not relevant is 4
