Answer:

Sydney is 44 years old

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Make a system of equations

d = s - 15

d + s = 73

Step 2: Plug in s - 15 for d in the second equation and solve

s - 15 + s = 73

2s - 15 = 73 + 15

2s / 2= 88 / 2

s = 44

Answer: Sydney is 44 years old

Zina [86]

Answer:

The number of ways to form the committee is formed = 637065

Solution:

The number of combinations of n things such that m things taken together are given by:-

$C_{(\boldsymbol{n}, \boldsymbol{m})}=\frac{n !}{m !(\boldsymbol{n}-\boldsymbol{m}) !}$

Given Data:

A committee consisting of 4 faculty members and 5 students is to be formed. There are 12 faculty members and 13 students eligible to serve on the committee.

Then, the number of ways to form the committee is formed given by :-

$\begin{array}{l}{12 C_{4} \times 13 C_{5}} \\\\ {=\frac{12 !}{4 !(12-4) !} \times \frac{13 !}{5 !(13-5) !}} \\\\ {=\frac{12 !}{4 ! 8 !} \times \frac{13 !}{5 ! 8 !}} \\\\ {\frac{12 \times 11 \times 10 \times 9 \times 8 !}{27 \times 8 !} \times \frac{13 \times 12 \times 11 \times 10 \times 9 \times 8}{120 \times 8 !}} \\\\ {=637065}\end{array}$

Hence, the number of ways to form the committee is formed = 637065

Find slope given the graph of a line on a grid

Alborosie

Slope is rise over run or Y2 - Y1 divided X2 - X1. The X's and Y's are your coordinate points. It doesn't matter which Y you put down first but remember to choose the X in the same place. Your coordinate points are (0, -1) and (-4, 2)

Your equation will be:

-1 - 2 / 0 - (-4)
-3 / 0 + 4
-3 / 4
Your slope is negative 3/4
