The distance between between two distinct points on number line is always greater than zero?

<span>The answer here is true. It is logically impossible to create a negative distance between two lines on a number line. Even using negative numbers, there would still be a distance between the two. This also applies to a microscopic difference. At the end of the day, there is still a difference.</span>

The sum of three numbers is 104. The first number is 10 less than the second. The third number is 4 times the second. What are t

Shalnov [3]

Answer:

The numbers are 9, 19 and 76.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's take the second number and make it a variable, like x. Now let's find all the other numbers in terms of x.

The first number in terms of x:

$x - 10$

The second number in terms of x:

$4x$

If we add them all up, these 3 numbers in terms of x must be equal to 104, so:

$x + (x - 10) + (4x) = 104 \\ x + x - 10 + 4x = 104 \\ 6x - 10 = 104 \\ 6x = 114 \\ x = 19$

Now that we know the second number, we can find the other numbers since we already figured out their values in terms of x:

$19 - 10 = 9$

$4 \times 19 = 76$

The first number is 9, second number 19 and the third number 76.

Megan and Heidi are making cookies for an upcoming bake sale. Megan is making chocolate chip cookies and Heidi is making sugar c

koban [17]

Answer:

Heidi (260 cookies)

Step-by-step explanation:

Megan's equation is given as y=8x, where x is the number of bags, and y the number of cookies:

#First calculate Heidi's total number of bags, cookies and cookies:

$H_b=\sum{bags}\\\\=10+12+14+16\\\\=52 \ bags\\\\H_c=\sum{cookies}\\\\=50+60+70+80\\\\=260 \ cookies$

#Given that both Heidi and Megan make the same number of bags of cookies, Megan's cookies totals to:

$H_b=M_B=52 \ Bags\\\\M_c=y=8x, x=52\\\\y=8\times 52\\\\=416\\$

Hence, Megan makes 416 cookies.

#From our calculations:

$416>260\\\\M_c>H_c$

Hence, Heidi makes the least number of cookies(260 cookies) compared to Megan's 416 cookies.

What is the value of 8P4?

sladkih [1.3K]

8P4 is a permutation;

P(n,r) ; nPr = n!/(n-r)!

8P4 = 8!/(8-4)! = 40,320 / 4! = 40,320 / 24 = 1,680

The value of 8P4 is 1,680
