X+2y=62
3x-2y=116

solving the simultaneous equations by multiplying first equation by 3;
3x+6y=186
3x-y=116

Subtracting equation II from equation I;
7y=70
y=10
 Replacing y in equation I;

x+20=62
x=42

Bigger number is 42 and smaller number is 20.

AVprozaik [17]
You need to find the number of permutations of the 6 different letters, taken 3 at a time.
6P3=\frac{6!}{(6-3)!}=\frac{6\times5\times4\times3\times2\times1}{3\times2\times1}=120
Therefore the sample space is 120 possible outcomes.

There are 12 contestants in a coloring contest. Three ribbons will be awarded. How many different ways could the ribbons be awar
Elanso [62]

Answer:

1320 ways

Step-by-step explanation:

Here we have a situation where 3 ribbons will be awarded to 3 of the 12 contestants. We can use the permutation formula, because the order of awarding the ribbons matters.

The permutation formula is:

_{n}P_{k}=\dfrac{n!}{(n-k)!}

n = 12

k = 3

Now that we have our variables, let's plug them into the formula.

_{12}P_{3}=\dfrac{12!}{(12-3)!}

_{12}P_{3}=\dfrac{12!}{9!}

_{12}P_{3}=1320

So there are 1320 different ways that the contestants will be awarded.
