Answer:
56
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that there are 8 candidates for student government: Hal, Mary, Ann, Frank, Beth, John, Emily, and Tom.
The three candidates that receive the highest number of votes become candidates for a runoff election.
i.e. 3 persons out of 8 to be selected for becoming candidates for a runoff election.
Since order does not matter we use combinations here
3 persons out of 8 can be done in 8C3 ways
= 56
no of 3-candidate combinations possible are 56

Answer:
<u>C) −2x − 2y + 17</u>
Step-by-step explanation (PEMDAS):
First, we do <u>3 (y + 5)</u> because of the parenthesis:
6x − 5y + 2 − 8x + 3y + 15
Since there are no exponents, multiplication ,or division, we will add and subtract. But we have to make sure we <u>combine like terms</u>. X with X's, Y with Y's and constants with constants. And ALWAYS go from left to right
6x − 5y + 2 − 8x + 3y + 15
<u>−2x</u> − 5y + 2 + 3y + 15
−2x <u>− 2y</u> + 2 + 15
<em>−2x − 2y</em><em> </em><em>+ </em><em><u>17</u></em><em>.</em>
