Sara cut biggert part, and her ribbon was longer.

\frac{1}{8} * 48= \frac{48}{8} =6 \\\frac{1}{9} * 36= \frac{9}{36} =4 \\6>4 \\6-4=2

How many solutions does the equation x_1 +x_2+x_3+x_4+x_5=21 have where x_1, x_2, x_3, x_4, and x_5 are nonnegative integers and
omeli [17]

Step-by-step explanation:

x_{1} + x_{2} + x_{3} + x_{4} + x_{5} = 21\\     (given)

Let us consider :

x_{1} = t_{1} + 1

x_{2} = t_{2}

x_{3} = t_{3}

x_{4}  = t_{4}

x_{5} = t_{5}

Now, by substituting the above considerations in the above equation, we get:

t_{1} + 1 + t_{2} + t_{3} + t_{4} + t_{5} = 21\\

t_{1}  + t_{2} + t_{3} + t_{4} + t_{5} = 20\\

where,

t_{i} \geq 1

then it follows

n = 20

r = 4

then no. of solutions for the eqn = _{r}^{n + r}\textrm{C}

                                                      = _{4}^{24}\textrm{C}

                                                      = 10626

Answer :

no. of solutions for the eqn 10626

Explain how you use estimation to check the reasonableness of a solution to a practical problem.
miskamm [114]

Answer:

Estimation is just giving a general answer to the situation and can be specified on specifics depending on the numbers used and whichever question it's asking. But also remember that whenever you estimate your answer will be an approximate answers, not an exact.

Y = 6x - 4<br> y = -x + 3
likoan [24]

Answer:

  (1, 2)

Step-by-step explanation:

Subtract the second equation from the first:

  (y) -(y) = (6x -4) -(-x +3)

  0 = 7x -7 . . . . .  simplify

  0 = x - 1 . . . . . . divide by 7

  1 = x . . . . . . . . . add 1

  y = -1 +3 = 2 . . . substitute into the second equation

The solution is (x, y) = (1, 2).
