Answer: $60
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that:
Amount left after purchasing sneakers = $12
$12 is equivalent to 20% of the initial starting amount
Let starting amount = x
20% of x = $12
0.2x = $12
Divide through by 0.2
0.2x / 0.2 = $12 / 0.2
x = $60
Hence, starting amount before buying sneakers is $60
Answer:
165 ways
Step-by-step explanation:
Selection deals with combination
There are a total of 11 from which 3 are to be selected
11C3 = 11!/3!(11-3)!
= 11!/(3!x8!)
=(11x10x9x8!)/(3x2x8!)
=11x10x9/6
=11x5x3 = 165 ways

^ = "to the power of"
1/32=1/2^5
1/2^5=2^-5
so
1/32=2^-5 </span>
