Answer:

120 distinct results are possible if no child is to receive more than one gifts.

Step-by-step explanation:

When the order is not important, we use the combination formula:

C_{n,x} is the number of different combinatios of x objects from a set of n elements, given by the following formula.

C_{n,x} = \frac{n!}{x!(n-x)!}

The order is said to be not important if for example, John receiving the Buffalo Bills jersey and then Laura receiving the Cleveland Browns jersey is the same as Laura receiving the Cleveland Browns jersey before John receives the Buffalo Bills jersey.

In this problem, we have that:

Combinations of 7 from a set of 10 elements. So

C_{n,x} = \frac{n!}{x!(n-x)!}

C_{10,7} = \frac{10!}{7!(3)!} = 120

120 distinct results are possible if no child is to receive more than one gifts.

The equation of a line is given below . 6x+2y =-18 find the x intercept and the y intercept
vova2212 [387]

Answer: x intercept is -3

y intercept is -9

Step-by-step explanation: 6(0) = 2y=-18, divide both sides by 2, get -9 as a y intercept

6x+2(0)=-18

divide both sides by 6, and get -3 as an x intercept

Can i please get your help , it will mean a lot if you actually do and luvya so for helping genuinely :)

Answer:29

Step-by-step explanation:

Opposite angles in a quadrilateral (the trapezium inside the circle) must add up to 180, so 180-92 = 88.

So DAB = 88

Angles on a straight line add up to 180, so to find t, you have to 180 - 88 - 63 =  29

So t is 29.

Hope that helps!
