The solution has to be a value of x. Since you already have x, you just have to plug in the value and see what fits. In this case thats the third from the top:
5^2 - 10*5 + 25 = 0
25 - 50 + 25 = 0
0 = 0
Hope it helps!
Answer:
the answer would be -2, -6 and if you need more help i believe you can work up to it
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>−2 1/6 divided by 1 1/4:</u>
- -2 1/6 ÷ 1 1/4 =
- - 13/6 ÷ 5/4 =
- - 13/6 × 4/5 =
- - 26/15 =
- -1 11/15
Step-by-step explanation:
x = mass of apples
y = mass of strawberries
z = mass of the box
x = 3y
x + z = 16240
y + z = 6350
let's subtract the second from the first equation
x + z = 16240
- y + z = 6350
-----------------------
x - y + 0 = 9890
using the first identity in that result gives us
3y - y = 9890
2y = 9890
y = 4,945 g
x = 3y = 3×4945 = 14,835 g = the mass of the apples
Answer:
190 possibilities.
Step-by-step explanation:
The problem is called 20 choose 2, given by the formula for combinations
C(20,2) = 20! / (2! (20-2)!) = 190
alternatively, we can reason it this way:
there are 20 choices to choose a captain and 19 choices for an alternate captain for a total of 380 ways.
However, there are 20 choices to choose an alternate captain and 19 choices for a captain for a total of 380 ways.
Since we are essentially double counting every choice of the posts, we need to divide 380 by 2 to get 190 ways.
