Answer:

His salary is $2666.68

Step-by-step explanation:

First add the percent of the costs. 10% + 15% = 25%

Then subtract 25% from 100% to find the percentage that 2,000 is of the total salary. 100% - 25% = 75%

$2,000 is 75% of the total salary. Divide 2,000 by three to find the amount of money 25% of the salary is. ( 75% is 3/4 of 100) 2,000 divided by 3 = $666.67

25% of the salary is $666.67

Multiple that by 4 and you get the total salary.

666.67•4= $2666.68

Are you sure those were all the correct numbers because that was not a very nice number at the end there lol but that answer is correct with the numbers you gave me.

What does l-8l + l8l = this mean?

Viktor [21]

The |x| operator means 'absolute value' or the positive value of the negative values. To help this make sense, here's a visual representation:
$|-8| = 8$

But,
$|8| = 8$

Do you see what I mean? BTW, your answer will just be 8 + 8 or 16.

Answer:

b. 70

Step-by-step explanation:

The Binomial Coefficient can be used to calculate the number of ways objects can be arranged.

<u>Binomial Coefficient</u>

$\displaystyle \rm \binom{n}{r} \: = \:^{n}C_{r} = \frac{n!}{r!(n-r)!}$

The exclamation mark "!" placed after a number means factorial and indicates to multiply all whole numbers from the given number down to 1.

Example: 4! = 4 × 3 × 2 × 1

The Binomial Coefficient gives us the number of ways of picking "r" unordered outcomes from "n" possibilities.

As there are 8 friends ⇒ n = 8.

As each car takes 4 friends ⇒ r = 4.

Substitute these values into the formula:

$\begin{aligned} \implies \displaystyle \rm \binom{8}{4} \: = \:^{8}C_{4} & = \rm \frac{8!}{4!(8-4)!}\\\\ & = \rm \dfrac{8 \times 7\times 6\times 5\times 4\times 3\times 2\times 1}{4\times 3\times 2\times 1\times 4\times 3\times 2\times 1}\\\\ & = \rm \dfrac{8 \times 7\times 6\times 5}{4\times 3\times 2\times 1}\\\\ & = \rm \dfrac{1680}{24}\\\\ & = \rm 70\end{aligned}$
