To make it easier just assume there is no decimal point then just work out the 32÷4 where we know that 4 goes into 32 8 times so you get 8 remember the decimal point and since it was one decimal place you will push the decimal over to the left of 8 and that is how you get 0.8

So the idea with literal equations is to get one variable in terms of all the rest.  In this equation, we are trying to solve for x in terms of y (meaning that we are trying to get x all by itself with y on the other side of the equal sign).  Whenever you have a single fraction by itself on one side of an equal sign, the first thing that I always do is cross multiply.  This gets rid of the fraction completely and makes everything look a little nicer:

y * (5-4x) = 1 * (2x+3)

Distribute on the left side:

5y-4xy = 2x+3

Move the x's all to the same side.  I'm doing this by subtracting 2x from both sides:

5y-4xy - 2x = 3

For simplicity's sake, move 5y to the right side of the equation by subtracting it from both sides:

-4xy - 2x = 3 - 5y

Factor out the x on the left side:

x (-4y-2) = 3 - 5y

Get the x term by itself on the left side by dividing both sides by -4y-2.

x = (3-5y)/(-4y-2)

 

And there you have it!  I hope that this helped a little.  Good luck!

Inverse of <br>f(X) = 3x - 7​
poizon [28]

Step-by-step explanation:

y = f(X) = 3x - 7

3x = y + 7

x= (y +7)/3

f ^-1(x) = (x + 7)/3

A group of 15 people are going to run a race. The top 8 will advance to the finals. Determine if the situation is a permutation
LUCKY_DIMON [66]

For the given situation we have a total of 259,459,200 permutations.

<h3>How many permutations are?</h3>

First, how we know that it is a permutation?

Because the order matters, we aren't only selecting 8 out of the 15 people, but these 8 selected also have an order (is not the same thing to finish the race first than fourth, for example).

Then we need to find the number of permutations, to do it, we need to find the numbers of options for each of the 8 positions.

  • For the first position there are 15 options.
  • For the second position ther are 14 options (one runner already finished).
  • For the third position there are 13 options.
  • And so on.

Then the total number of permutations (product between the numbers of options) is:

P = 15*14*13*12*11*10*9*8 = 259,459,200
