a. The first part asks for how many ways they can be seated together in a row. Therefore we want the permutations of the set of 6 people, or 6 factorial,

6! = 6 * 5

= 30 * 4

= 360 * 2 = 720 possible ways to order 6 people in a row

b. There are two cases to consider here. If the doctor were to sit in the left - most seat, or the right - most seat. In either case there would be 5 people remaining, and hence 5! possible ways to arrange themselves.

5! = 5 * 4

= 20 * 3

= 120 * 1 = 120 possible ways to arrange themselves if the doctor were to sit in either the left - most or right - most seat.

In either case there are 120 ways, so 120 + 120 = Total of 240 arrangements among the 6 people if the doctor sits in the aisle seat ( leftmost or rightmost seat )

c. With each husband on the left, there are 3 people left, all women, that we have to consider here.

3!  = 3 * 2 6 ways to arrange 3 couples in a row, the husband always to the left

The table represents a linear equation.which equation shows how (-10,8) can be used to write the equation of this line is point-
larisa86 [58]

Answer:

\large\boxed{y-8=-0.2(x+10)}

Step-by-step explanation:

The point-slope form of an equation of a line:

y-y_1=m(x-x_1)

m - slope

(x₁, y₁) - point

The formula of a slope:

m=\dfrac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}

From the table we have the points (-10, 8) and (10, 4). Substitute:

m=\dfrac{4-8}{10-(-10)}=\dfrac{-4}{20}=-\dfrac{1}{5}=-0.2

The equation of a line:

y-8=-0.2(x-(-10))\\\\y-8=-0.2(x+10)

If you read can read 40 pages in 2 hours, how many pages can you read in 5 hours?
Pavlova-9 [17]
You can read 100 pages in 5 hours.

40 pages in 2 hours. We need to get the unit rate. In this case, we need to get the number of pages read in 1 hour.

40 pages ÷ 2 hours = 20 pages per hour.

20 pages per hours * 5 hours = 100 pages.
