Use the identity: 
and solve for 
. You get: 
Do the substitution on the left side to get:
Answer:
1/8
Step-by-step explanation:
1/4 divided by 2
The number of handshakes is the number of ways 6 objects can be selected 2 at a time.
.. C(6,2) = 6·5/(2·1) = 15
The appropriate choice is
... C) 15
_____
Consider that each person can shake hands with 5 others. That's a total of 6*5 = 30 handshakes, but it counts both A shaking with B and B shaking with A. If each pair of persons only shakes hands once, the number of handshakes is 30/2 = 15.
Answer:
x = -1
, y = 5
Step-by-step explanation:
Solve the following system:
{5 x + 3 y = 10 | (equation 1)
x = y - 6 | (equation 2)
Express the system in standard form:
{5 x + 3 y = 10 | (equation 1)
x - y = -6 | (equation 2)
Subtract 1/5 × (equation 1) from equation 2:
{5 x + 3 y = 10 | (equation 1)
0 x - (8 y)/5 = -8 | (equation 2)
Multiply equation 2 by -5/8:
{5 x + 3 y = 10 | (equation 1)
0 x+y = 5 | (equation 2)
Subtract 3 × (equation 2) from equation 1:
{5 x+0 y = -5 | (equation 1)
0 x+y = 5 | (equation 2)
Divide equation 1 by 5:
{x+0 y = -1 | (equation 1)
0 x+y = 5 | (equation 2)
Collect results:
Answer: {x = -1
, y = 5
