Freshmen: ₁₂C₂ \frac{12!}{2!(12 - 2)!} = \frac{12!}{2!*10!} = \frac{12 * 11 * 10!}{2*10!} = \frac{12 * 11}{2} = 6 * 11 = 66

Sophomore: ₁₇C₂  = \frac{17!}{2!(17 - 2)!} = \frac{17!}{2!*15!} = \frac{17 * 16 * 15!}{2 * 15!} = \frac{17 * 16}{2}  = 17 * 8 = 136

Juniors: ₁₆C₃ = \frac{16!}{3!(16 - 3)!} = \frac{16!}{3!*13!} = \frac{16 * 15 * 14 * 13!}{3 * 2 * 13!} = \frac{16 * 15 * 14}{2 * 3} = 8 * 5 * 14 = 560

Seniors: ₂₀C₃ = \frac{20!}{3!(20 - 3)!} = \frac{20!}{3!*17!} = \frac{20 * 19 * 18 * 17!}{3*2*17!} = \frac{20 * 19 * 18}{2 * 3} = 10 * 19 * 6 = 1140

₁₂C₂ * ₁₇C₂  * ₁₆C₃  * ₂₀C₃

66  * 136 *  560 * 1140 = 5,730,278,400

Answer: 5,730,278,400

If RS = 17, ST = x + 6, and RT = 3x - 5, What is ST.
tigry1 [53]

Answer:

ST = 20

Step-by-step explanation:

Line segment RS and segment ST must add up to line segment RT

Step 1: Define

RS = 17

ST = x + 6

RT = 3x - 5

Step 2: Set up equation

mRS + mST = mRT

17 + x + 6 = 3x - 5

Step 3: Solve for <em>x</em>

x + 23 = 3x - 5

23 = 2x - 5

28 = 2x

x = 14

Step 3: Find mST

ST = x + 6

ST = 14 + 6

ST = 20

First, I would subtract 150 from 870. You get 720. Then I would divide that equally among the four artists. 720/4=180. So each person's share is $180.
