66 different pairs. Use a dodecagon showing sides and angles
kherson [118]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that there are 12 people sitting around at a table.

We see that any two persons can have conversations.  If we count A with B as one conversation this is the same as B with A

i.e. order does not matter

So here we have to use combinations.

2 people out of 12 where order does not matter can be done in 12C2 ways

No of conversations = 12C2\\= \frac{12!}{2!10!} \\=66

If we use a dodedecon as a geometrical figure with 12 vertices representing 12 persons the conversation between pairs can be associated with all diagonals and sides connecting two vertices.

Sides are 12 and diagonals are 54 totalling 66.

Six plus -2 times a number is the same as 26 plus six times the same number.
aleksandr82 [10.1K]

Step-by-step explanation:

let the number be x

and according to question,

six + 2 times a number = 2x + 6

26 + 6 times a number = 6x + 26

→ 2x + 6 = 6x + 26

→ -6x + 2x = 26 - 6

→ -4x = 20

→ x = 20/4 = 5

→ x = 5

therefore, the number is 5.

hope this answer helps you dear...take care and may u have a great day ahead!

Write 83 as a sum of tens and ones
Hoochie [10]
Well,

We can see that there are 8 10's and 3 1's.  So we can write 8 10's followed by 3 1's and join them with addition symbols.

83 = 10 + 10 + 10 + 10 + 10 + 10 + 10 + 10 + 1 + 1 + 1

Find the slope of the line passing through the points of (3,-5) and (-9,-6)
slavikrds [6]

Answer:

1

m = ---

12

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula is y2-y1

---------

x2-x1

(x1,y1) (x2,y2)

(3,-5) (-9,-6)

You get the 2 Y's and subtract them

Do the same with the X's

Y's above , X's below

(y2- y1)

⬇

-6-(-5) -1 1

--------- = ---- = ---- = m

-9-(3) -12 12

⬆

(×2- x1)

This equation is backwards, thats why it was harder to understand. (-9,-6) is farther left and below point (3,-5), making it the REAL first point in the equation.
