Answer:

Elliot will make 4 hats and 16 scarves

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the number of hats and y be the number of scarves Elliot will make.

Elliott wants to make a total of 20 items, then

x + y = 20

Each hat uses 0.2 kilograms of yarn, so x hats use 0.2x kilograms of yarn and each scarf uses 0.1 kilogram of yarn, then y scarves use 0.1y kilograms of yarn. Elliott wants to use twice as much yarn for scarves as for hats, then

0.1y = 2(0.2x)

Thus,

0.1y = 0.4x

y = 4x

Substitute it into the first equation:

x + 4x = 20

5x = 20

x = 4

y = 20 - 4

y = 16

Hence, Elliot will make 4 hats and 16 scarves

5,005    362,880    3,603,600    1,816,214,400

^nC_r= \frac{n!}{(n-r)!r!}
Here, we want to choose a 9-person batting order from a team of 15 players. This is given by:
^{15}C_9= \frac{15!}{(15-9)!9!}=\frac{15\times14\times13\times12\times11\times10\times9!}{6!\times9!}= \frac{3,603,600}{720} =5,005

Linear pair angles are
guajiro [1.7K]

Answer:

a

Step-by-step explanation:

Linear Pair Angles are always congruent because you can see that the parallel lines are cut by a transversal, which creates special angle pairs. The angles would be Alternate Exterior Angles; angles on opposite sides of a transversal but outside the two parallel lines form supplementary angle pairs. The angles also are Corresponding Angles.
