Step-by-step explanation:
Given:
The difference between a number and 8 is 11
Find the number.
Solution:
Let the unknown number be 
The difference between the unknown number can be written as:

We are given that the difference =11
So we can write the equation to find
as :

Using additive property to solve for 
Adding 8 to both sides to isolate
on one side.

∴ 
∴ The unknown number = 19

Answer:
80
Step-by-step explanation:
A certain company employs 6 senior officers and 4 junior officers. If a committee is to be created that is made up of 3 sr officers and 1 jr officer, how many different committees are possible?
8
24
58
80*
210
I initially got this one wrong, but after I saw the answer which is 80, I was able to solve it. But im not sure if this is the proper way of solving it, or if someone can suggest a more efficient way of solving it?
This is what I did, which was wrong:
Sr Officers + Jr Officers
(6!/3! 3! = 20) + (4!/3! = 4) = 24
It seems like the correct answer is:
Sr Officers X Jr Officers
(6!/3! 3! = 20) x (4!/3! = 4) = 80
If this is the most efficient way of solving, when do you know when to add them as opposed to multiplying them in this case?
