Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

we call the number X

x/5 is the fifth part of that number

I propose equality:

x + x/5 = 17

we add the fractions on the left side:

6x/5 = 17

We pass 5 to multiply to the other side:

6x = 5 * 17

6x = 85

we clear x

x = 85/6

x = 14.17

test

14.17 + 2.83 = 17

okay

Answer:

14.1666666667

Step-by-step explanation:

We can write the equation as:

x + x/5 = 17

=> 5/5x + 1/5x = 17

=> 6/5x = 17

=> 6x = 17 * 5

=> 6x = 85

=> x = 85/6

=> x = 14.1666666667

Let's check whether our answer is correct

=> 14.1666666667 + 14.1666666667 / 5 = 17

=> 14.1666666667 +  2.83333333333 = 17

=> 17 = 17

So, the answer is 14.1666666667

A license plate consists of 2 letters followed by 3 digits. How many license plates are possible if the 1st digit cannot be 0, a
zloy xaker [14]

There are 608400 plates are possible.

If the first is A, we have 26 possibilities:

AA, AB, AC,AD,AE ...................................... AW, AX, AY, AZ.

If the first is B, we have 26 possibilities:

BA, BB, BC, BD, BE .........................................BW, BX,BY,BZ

And so on for every letter of the alphabet.

There are 26 choices for the first letter and 26 choices for the second letter. The number of different combinations of 2 letters is:

26×26=676

The same applies for the three digits.

There are 9 choices for the first as first digit cannot be 0

10 for the second,

10 for the third

9×10×10=900

So for a license plate which has 2 letters and 3 digits, there are:

676 × 900 = 608400 possibilities
