The first thing we must do for this case is to define variables:
 We have then:
 x: liz's age
 y: melinda's age
 We now write the system of equations:
 x + y = 28

x-6 = (1/3) (y-6)
 By solving the system graphically we have that the age of each one is currently:
 x = 10

 y = 18
 Next year, the age of liz is:
 x + 1 = 10 + 1 = 11

 Answer:
 
Next year, Liz's age is 11 years.
 
Note: see attached image for the graphic solution.

−4(3m−3)+(−10+8m)=?
Valentin [98]
-4(3m-3)+(-10+8m)
12m+12-1+8m
12m+8m = 20m
+12 -1= +11
answer: 20m+11


*note negative times a negative equals positive and negative times positive is negative 
first: you multiply -4 by 3m which is -12m.
second: you multiply -4 by -3 which is +12
third: find the invisible which is 1. (located right here: +(1) (-10+8m)
fourth: multiply invisible 1 by -10 which is -10
fifth: multiply invisible one by +8m which is +8m 
sixth: combine like terms
seventh: answer

A baseball manager is determining the batting order for the team. The team has 9 players, but the manager definitely wants the p
Rina8888 [55]

40320 batting orders are possible.

Since the pitcher bats last, there is only one choice for the 9th slot. For the 1st slot, there are 8 choices remaining. For the 2nd slot, there are 7 choices remaining, etc.

So the number of possible batting orders is:

8*7*6*5*4*3*2*1 = 8! = 40,320

factorial, in mathematics, the product of all positive integers less than or equal to a given positive integer and denoted by that integer and an exclamation point. Thus, factorial seven is written 7!, meaning 1 × 2 × 3 × 4 × 5 × 6 × 7. Factorial zero is defined as equal to 1.

Factorials are commonly encountered in the evaluation of permutations and combinations and in the coefficients of terms of binomial expansions .
