Answer:

45

Step-by-step explanation:

The different pairs of individual can be computed using rule of combination.

The combination is denotes as nCr.

nCr=n!/(r!(n-r)!)

In the given problem n=total candidates=10 and r= Selected candidates=2.

10C2=10!/(2!(10-2)!)

10C2=10*9*8!/(2!8!)

10C2=90/2

10C2=45

So, 45 different pairs of individuals can be selected.

Answer:

45

Step-by-step explanation:

Pairs that can be selected = 10C2

= \frac{10!}{2!(10-2)!}= \frac{10!}{2!*8!}\\  \\= \frac{10*9*8!}{2*1*8!}= \frac{10*9}{2*1}\\  \\= 5 * 9 = 45

Answer:

x=2

Step-by-step explanation:

We know the only number that gets us back to 0 after subtracting 4 is 4, because 4-4=0. The square root of 4 is 2. Hope my explanation wasn't too confusing!

2²=4

The sign shows distances from a rest stop to the exits for different towns along a straight section of highway. The state depart
torisob [31]
Refer to the diagram shown below.

The exit for Freestone is built midway between Roseville and Edgewood,
therefore the distance from O to the new exit is
(1/2)*(33+55) = 44 mi.

Let x =  distance from Midtown to the new exit.
Because the distance from O to the new exit is equal to (x + 17), therefore
x + 17 = 44
x = 44 - 17 = 27 mi.

Answer:
When the new exit is built, the distance from the exit for Midtown to the exit for Freestone will be 27 miles.

1/7(x+21)=-6<br> answer ?
Talja [164]
(1/7) Multiplied By x is 1/7x And (1/7) Multplied By Positive 21 is 3. So It Will Then Change To 1/7x + 3 = -6.
Subtract 3 From Both Sides. Then The Equation Changes To 1/7x = -9
Then Since (1/7) Basically Means To Divide You Would Multiply By 7 On Both Sides And Then x Would Equal -63!(:
Then Can Plug In -63 Where x Is To Check Your Work! Hope I Helped!
