Answer:

1140 ways.

Step-by-step explanation:

The applicable formula is: (n +r - 1)C(r-1), where n is the number of identical items (the candies), and r is the possible number of recipients (the kids).

The 17 identical candies, can be distributed among the 4 children in :  

=(17 + 4 - 1)C(4–1) = 20C3 ways.

= 20!/((20–3)!*3!) ways.

= 20*19*18*17!/(17!*(3*2*1)) = 20*19*18/6 ways

= 20*19*3 ways.  

=1140 ways.

the sum of three number is 202, the second is three more than the first number, the third number is three times the second numbe
sertanlavr [38]

Answer:

x = 38

y = 41

z = 123

Step-by-step explanation:

x + y + z = =202

y = x + 3

z = 3y = 3(x + 3) = 3x + 9

<u>x</u> + <u>y</u> + <u>z</u> = <u>x</u> + <u>x + 3</u> + <u>3x + 9</u> = 5x + 12 = 202

5x + 12 = 202

5x = 190

x = 38

y = x + 3 = 41

z = 3y = 123

Three times the number x will be called 3x. If an expression is more or greater than a number, we use the greater symbol: >

So, we can write,

3x>18

On a coordinate grid, your campsite is located at (3, – 5), and the next checkpoint station is located at (–10, 1). Each unit in
Bumek [7]
Answer: <span>A. about 30.8 miles
</span><span>
The x and y distance from the campsite at A (3, – 5), and the next checkpoint station is located at B (–10, 1) would be:
Xab= Xb- Xa= -10 - 3= -13
Yab= Yb- Ya= 1- (-5)= 6

The resultant distance would be
c^2= a^2+b^2
c^2= (-13)^2 + (6)^2
c= </span>√(169+36)= √205
c=14.32

If each unit in the coordinate plane represents 2.15 miles, the true distance= 14.32*2.15 miles= 30.78 miles

Solve |-x + 4 | = | 2x - 2| by graphing<br> P/s: if possible show me how to do it T-T
sertanlavr [38]
I always like to start by removing the absolute value signs. Solving the two equations, -x+4 = 2x-2 we get 6 = 3x, x = 2
If we test ±2 we get the following:
x = 2; | -(2) + 4 | = | 2(2) - 2 |, | 2 | = | 2 |, 2 = 2
Now we test
X = -2; | -(-2) + 4 | = | 2(-2) - 2 |, | 6 | = | -6 |, 6 = 6
Both +2 and -2 work.
