(2x + 3) + (x+1) + (3x-10) = 180
6x - 6 = 180
6x = 186
x= 31
Let x be the 1st number
x + 9 be the second number
Equation:
x + x+9 = 171
Solution:
2x + 9 = 171
2x = 171 - 9
2x = 162
x = 81
x + 9 = 90
81 + 90 = 171
Answer:
There are 795 combinations.
Step-by-step explanation:
The number of ways or combinations in which we can select k element from a group of n elements is given by:

So, if Miriam want to choose 3 movies with at least two comedies, she have two options: Choose 2 comedies and 1 foreign film or choose 3 comedies.
Then, the number of combinations for every case are:
1. Choose 2 Comedies from the 10 and choose 1 foreign film from 15. This is calculated as:


2. Choose 3 Comedies from the 10. This is calculated as:

Therefore, there are 795 combinations and it is calculated as:
675 + 120 = 795
y = 3(x + 4)^2 + 31
Step-by-step explanation:
We can convert the given quadratic equation into its vertex form by completing the square:
y = 3x^2 + 24x + 43
= 3(x^2 + 8x) + 43
= 3(x^2 + 8x + 4) + 31
= 3(x + 4)^2 + 31
This is the vertex form of the given quadratic equation with (-4, 31) as its vertex
