Answer:

88° and 132°

Step-by-step explanation:

The sum of angles in a pentagon ( a 5-sided shape) is given as

= (5 - 2) 180°

= 540°

The angles ∠EAB and ∠AED are supplementary hence the sum is 180° Therefore,

∠AED + 110 = 180

∠AED = 180 - 110

= 70°

Given that the sum of the angles in a pentagon is 540° then

110 + 70 + 2k + 140 + 3k = 540

5k + 320 = 540

5k = 540 - 320

5k = 220

k = 220/5

= 44°

Hence the angle ∠ABC

= 2 × 44

= 88°

∠CDE

= 3 × 44

= 132°

Prove that C(50,3) + C(50,4) = C(51,4)

valkas [14]

By definition of the binomial coefficient,

$C(n,k) = \dfrac{n!}{k!(n-k)!}$

so we have

$C(50,3) + C(50,4) = \dfrac{50!}{3!47!} + \dfrac{50!}{4!46!} \\\\ = \dfrac{50!}{3!46!} \left(\dfrac1{47} + \dfrac14\right) \\\\ = \dfrac{50!}{3!46!} \times \dfrac{51}{188} \\\\ = \dfrac{51!}{3!46!} \times \dfrac1{4\times47} \\\\ = \dfrac{51!}{4!47!} \\\\ = \dfrac{51!}{4!(51-4)!} = C(51,4)$

as required.

Evaluate the expression. [(8 x 7) – 2): 9

frozen [14]

Answer:

☑ Answer is 6

Step-by-step explanation:

${ \tt{ \{(8 \times 7) - 2 \} : 9}} \\ = { \tt{(56 - 2) :9 }} \\ = { \tt{54 :9 }}$

» But this is a ratio, so it can be expressed in terms of fractions:

$= { \tt{ \frac{54}{9} }} \\$

» Divide both the denominator and numerator by 9:

${ \tt{ = \frac{54 \div 9}{9 \div 9} }} \\ \\ = { \tt{ \frac{6}{1} }} \\ \\ = 6$
