Answer:

The combination is 15

Step-by-step explanation:

There are 6 people in a raffle drawing. two raffle winners each wing gift cards . each gift card is the same.

Lets call the winners Winner 1, Winner 2. According to the given statement each gift card is same, thus any permutation of these two winners are  equivalent.This tells us that the order of winners does not matter and the situation involves a combination.

Now we have to calculate the combination of 2 winners from 6 people.

nCm = m!/n!(m-n)!

where m = 6

n = 2

2C6 = 6!/2!(6-2)!

2C6 = 6!/2!(4)!

2C6 = 6*5*4*3*2*1/2*1*4*3*2*1

2C6= 6*5/2*1

2C6=30/2

2C6 = 15

Thus the combination is 15....

Graph the system of equations on your graph paper to answer the question. {y=−3x+9y=−x−5 What is the solution for the system of
marysya [2.9K]

y=−3x+9 slope of this equation is -3 and y-intercept is 9

Plot the y -intercept first which is 9 and mark the points using the slope which is -3. Join the points. So blue line in the graph is y = -3x+9

y=−x−5 slope of this equation is -1 and y intercept is -5

Plot the y -intercept first which is -5 and mark the points using the slope which is -1 . Join the points. So pink line in the graph is y = -x-5

The intersection point of these two lines gives you the solution.

The coordinates of point of intersection (7,-12)
