Answer:

13.6

Step-by-step explanation:

Find the value of x by setting equal the expressions. Then solve for x.

8x + 16 = 3x + 84

8x - 3x + 16 = 84

5x = 68

x = 13.6

Six distinct integers are picked from the set {1, 2, 3,…, 10}. How many selections are there, in which the second smallest integ

Ksivusya [100]

Answer:

1680 ways

Step-by-step explanation:

Total number of integers = 10

Number of integers to be selected = 6

Second smallest integer must be 3. This means the smallest integer can be either 1 or 2. So, there are 2 ways to select the smallest integer and only 1 way to select the second smallest integer.

2 ways 1 way

Each of the line represent the digit in the integer.

After selecting the two digits, we have 4 places which can be filled by 7 integers. Number of ways to select 4 digits from 7 will be 7P4 = 840

Therefore, the total number of ways to form 6 distinct integers according to the given criteria will be = 1 x 2 x 840 = 1680 ways

Therefore, there are 1680 ways to pick six distinct integers.

In the diagram below, AC and CB, AB and CD, and m(angle)A=33 degrees. Find M(angle)B

hoa [83]

Answer:

15°.

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Angles ADC and CDB are supplementary, thus

m∠ADC+m∠CDB=180°.

Since m∠ADC=115°, you have that m∠CDB=180°-115°=65°.

2. Triangle BCD is isosceles triangle, because it has two congruent sides CB and CD. The base of this triangle is segment BD. Angles that are adjacent to the base of isosceles triangle are congruent, then

m∠CDB=m∠CBD=65°.

The sum of the measures of interior angles of triangle is 180°, therefore,

m∠CDB+m∠CBD+m∠BCD=180° and

m∠BCD=180°-65°-65°=50°.

3. Triangle ABC is isosceles, with base BC. Then

m∠ABC=m∠ACB.

From the previous you have that m∠ABC=65° (angle ABC is exactly angle CBD). So

m∠ACB=65°.

4. Angles BCD and DCA together form angle ACB. This gives you

m∠ACB=m∠ACD+m∠BCD,

m∠ACD=65°-50°=15°.
