Answer:
Both, you and your friend, are correct.
Step-by-step explanation:
5 P 5 = 5!
A shortcut I learned is that in the permutation equation nPn when n is the same on both sides, it is equal to if you used factorial, n!.
Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

substitute (1) to (2):
add x to both sides

subtract 5 from both sides


substitute the values of x to (2):

Answer:
5
Step-by-step explanation:
y^1 = 5^1 (y = 5)
Anything raised to the power of 1 is just itself.
So, 5^1 = 5
Answer:
Approximately 809 cubes will be made
Step-by-step explanation:
To calculate the number if cubes to be made, we shall need to calculate the volume of both shapes
The volume of the cubes can be calculated using the formula L^3 = 3 * 3 * 3 = 27 cm^3
For the cylinder, the formula of the volume to use is
V = π * r^2 * h
The radius here is 10.5 cm and the height is 63 cm
V = 22/7 * 10.5^2 * 63 = 21,829.5 cm^3
The number of cubes that can be made is calculated by dividing the volume of the cylinder by that of the cube
That is 21,829.5/27 = 808.5 which is 809 to the nearest whole number
Answer: -2
(-5)(-1)x=(10)(-1)
5x = -10
x = -2
