With 17 students there’s 17 possibilities for anyone to go first
For second, a person can’t be firsts and second so there is 16 possibilities for someone to go second

17*16=272

There’s 272 ways that the students who go first and second are chosen

A certain pickup truck gets 20mpg in the city and 28 mpg on the highway. If the driver drives 270 mi on 11 gal of gas, determine
Snezhnost [94]

Answer:

95 city and 175 highway miles.

Step-by-step explanation:

The driver gets 20 mpg in city, and 28 mpg on the highway.

An equation that could be written is

20x+28y=270

This equation accounts for the distance traveled.

x+y=11

This equotion accounts for how many gallons were driven.

Multiply the bottom equation by 20, so you can solve the set of equations.

20x+28y=270

20x+20y=220

subtract them

8y=50

y=6.25

now plug this back into x+y=11

x+6.25=11

x=4.75

Now 4.75×20=95 city miles and 6.25×28=175 highway miles.

Write the equation in the form y = a • b^x given the table below.​
MrRa [10]

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  y = 1 · 5^x

Step-by-step explanation:

Use the given values in the given formula and solve for 'a' and 'b'.

  y = a·b^x

  5 = a·b^1 . . . . . . for (x, y) = (1, 5)

  125 = a·b^3 . . . . for (x, y) = (3, 125)

Divide the second equation by the first:

  125/5 = (a·b^3)/(a·b^1)

  25 = b^2 . . .  simplify

  5 = b . . . . . . . take the square root

Substituting into the first equation, we can find 'a':

  5 = a·5

  1 = a . . . . . . . divide by 5

Written in the given form, the equation is ...

  y = 1 · 5^x
