The probability of getting the correct order in the spelling bee is 1 chance in 362,880.

This is a permutation problem. Our goals is to find the total number of ways that the 9 students can be ordered.

For the first spot there are 9 choices, then 8 choices, then 7 choices....

We need to evaluate:
9 x 8 x 7 x 6 x 5 x 4 x 3 x 2 x 1 = 362,880

Another way to write this is: 9!

vekshin1

<em>Answer:</em>

( B ) x = 6.5

<em>Step-by-step explanation:</em>

We know that all the angles of a triangle equal 180 when added together. So lets make an equation for this question.

(10x-10) + (10x+8) + 8x = 180

I just took all the angles and added them together to make 180. Now solve for x.

10x - 10 + 10x + 8 + 8x = 180 <em>(combined like terms)</em>

28x -2 = 180 <em>(added 2 to both sides)</em>

28x = 182 <em>(divided both sides by 28)</em>

x = 6.5

goldenfox [79]
The price of this more expensive book was $90.00 ($150 - $60) based on the date acquired from the question above. This problem can be solved using a simple algebra equation which consisted of one variable. The equation is stated as $150 = x + 1.5x (x = $150/2.5 = $60) where x is the price of the cheaper book and 1.5x is the price of the more expensive books because it has 50% higher price than the cheaper book<span>.</span>
