Answer:
x=5
Step-by-step explanation:
4x + 8 = 28,
it's rather straight forward,
you would subtract 8 from the left side,
doing the same on the right.
now you have
4x = 20
x= 20/4
x=5
hope this helps.
Answer: 5*2*2*3*3
Step-by-step explanation:
First you divide 180 by 2 and you get 90. Then you proceed to divide that by 2 again and get 45. You will then divide 45 by 3 to get 15. Then divide 15 by 3 again and get 5, which cannot be divided any smaller.
180/2=90
90/2=45
45/3=15
15/3=5
Answer:
a) rCn = 1176
b) 2352
Step-by-step explanation:
a)Each committee should be formed with 3 members ( no two members could be of the same state) then
Let´s fix a senator for any of the 50 states so in the new condition we need to combined 49 senators in groups of 2 then
rCn = n! / (n - r )! *r!
rCn = 49!/ (49 - 2)!*2!
rCn = 49*48*47! / 47!*2!
rCn = 49*48 /2
rCn = 1176
So we can choose in 1176 different ways a senator for a given state
b) To answer this question we have to note, that, 1176 is the number of ways a committee can be formed with senators of different sate (taking just one senator for state ) if we have 2 senators we need to multiply that figure by 2.
1176*2 = 2352
