Answer:

28 minutes spent in washing the dishes.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the table

Chore             time in minutes

Sweeping           42

Dishes                  ?

Amanda spent a total of 70 minutes competing her chores this week

Total of 70 minutes spent

42 minutes spent in sweeping . to find the number of minutes Amanda spent in washing the dishes , subtract 42 minutes from the total time spent

let x be the number of minutes spent washing the dishes

42+x=70

To solve for x , subtract 42 from both sides

42+x=70\\x= 70-42\\x=28

28 minutes spent in washing the dishes.

Amy's grandmother gave her 3 identical chocolate chip cookies and 4 identical sugar cookies. In how many different orders can Am
Dmitrij [34]

Answer:

chocolate chip cookie first: 15 ways

chocolate chip cookie last: 15 ways

chocolate chip cookie first and last: 5 ways

Step-by-step explanation:

There is a total of 7 cookies.

Is she eats a chocolate cookie first, she will have 2 chocolate cookies and 4 sugar cookies (6 in total).

So, to find the number of different orders that Amy can eat the remaining cookies, we just need to calculate a combination of 6 choose 2 (that is, the number of ways we can put the 2 chocolate cookies among the 6 cookies) or a combination of 6 choose 4 (same thing, but for the sugar cookies):

C(6,2) = 6! / (2! * 4!) = 6 * 5 / 2 = 15 ways

Is she eats a chocolate cookie last, she will have 2 chocolate cookies and 4 sugar cookies (6 in total), so the problem is solved again with a combination of 6 choose 2:

C(6,2) = 15 ways

Is she eats a chocolate cookie first and last, she will have just 1 chocolate cookie left and 4 sugar cookies (5 in total), so the problem is solved with a combination of 5 choose 1 or a combination of 5 choose 4:

C(5,1) = 5! / (1! * 4!) = 5 ways
