Each team needs two people for a 3-legged race.
Therefore, the number of orders (combinations) of 2 people at a time from 8 is
₈C₂ = 8!/(2!6!)
= (8*7*6!)/(2*6!)
= (8*7)/2
= 56/2
= 28
Answer: 28
Answer:
10.15
Step-by-step explanation:
Subtract:
10.15 - 10.1 = 0.05
10.15 is greater than 10.1 by 0.05

Answer:
D
Step-by-step explanation:
4 people = 15 days
1 people = 15/4 = 3.75
so, 6 people = 3.75 × 6
= 22.5
Let the width be x.
Length is 8 feet more than width. Length = x + 8
Area = x(x + 8)
width increased by 4, that is, (x + 4)
Length decreased by 5, (x + 8 - 5) = (x + 3)
Area = (x + 4)(x +3)
Area remains the same
x(x + 8) = (x+4)(x +3)
x² + 8x = x(x +3) + 4(x +3)
x² + 8x = x² +3x + 4x +12
x² + 8x = x² +7x +12 Eliminate x² from both sides
8x = 7x + 12
8x - 7x = 12
x = 12
Dimensions of original rectangle : x, x + 8
12, 12 +8 = 12, 20
Original rectangle is 20 feet by 12 feet
The answer is the first option
