The first choice can be any one of the 8 side dishes.
For each of these . . .
The 2nd choice can be any one of the remaining 7.
Total number of ways to pick 2 out of 8 = (8 x 7) = 56 ways .
BUT ...
That doesn't mean you can get 56 different sets of 2 side dishes.
For each different pair, there are 2 ways to choose them . . .
(first A then B), and (first B then A). Either way, you wind up with (A and B).
So yes, there are 56 different 'WAYS' to choose 2 out of 8.
But there are only 28 different possible results, and 2 'ways'
to get each result.
Answer:
You can use mixed numbers in the real world when you are baking there are measuring cups like for example... 1 1/2 of sugar. You can also use mixed numbers in the real world when you are sharing thins like cake or a pizza. You can use mixed numbers for some things.
I did that picture for homework hope that helped .
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
The height of the marshmallow (in feet) is represented by the equation h=−16t2+8t+48,
where t is the time (in seconds) after he throws the marshmallow.
The equation is a quadratic equation. When the marshmallow hits the ground, its height from the ground will be zero. Therefore
−16t^2+8t+48 = 0
- 2t^2 + t + 6 = 0
Multiplying through by the negative sign. It becomes
2t^2 - t - 6 = 0
2t^2 + 3t - 4t - 6 = 0
t(2t + 3) - 2(2t + 3) = 0
(t - 2)(2t + 3) = 0
t - 2 = 0 or 2t + 3 = 0
t = 2 or t = - 3/2
The time cannot be negative
So it will take 2 seconds to hit the ground
