You must calculate how many ways can 2 people be selected from 65.
The formula is:
n! / r! * (n-r)! =
65! / 2! * 63! =
65*64*63! / 2 * 63! =
65*64 / 2 =
2,080 handshakes

∠EFG and ∠GFH are a linear pair, m∠EFG=3n+23, and m∠GFH=2n+32. What are m∠EFG and m∠GFH?

NARA [144]

the measures of the angles are:

m∠EFG = 98°
m∠GFH = 82°

<h3>How to find the measures of the angles?</h3>

Two angles are a linear pair if their measures add up to 180°.

Then we will have that:

∠EFG + ∠GFH = 180

Here we know that:

m∠EFG=3n+23

m∠GFH=2n+32

Replacing that we get:

3n + 23 + 2n + 32 = 180

5n + 55 = 180

5n = 180 - 55 = 125

n = 125/5 = 25

Then the measures of the angles are:

m∠EFG=3n+23 = 3*25 +23 = 98°

m∠GFH=2n+32 = 2*25 + 32 = 82°

HELP DUE IN 5 MINUTES

Dafna1 [17]

Answer:

100C=m

Step-by-step explanation:

If 250 copies are made in 2.5 minutes, you get the equation:

250c=2.5m

divide by 2.5 on both sides and you get:

100c=m

So in m minutes, 100c copies are made.
