If the letters are considered distinct, then the number of permutations is

.
If we count either C as the same character, then we would be double-counting - to correct this, we would simply divided by the number of ways we can choose C from the available characters, or

.
1: Solve for either x or y in one of the equations. So x + y = -1 is y = -x -1
2: substitute the new equation in the opposite equation. So x - (-x - 1) = 7
3: distribute the negative. X + x + 1 = 7
4: combine like terms. 2x + 1 = 7
5: solve for x. Subtract 1 on both sides. 2x = 6
6: divide by 2 to get x by itself. X = 3
7: plug the new value of x into one of the ORIGINAL equations. 3 + y = -1
8: solve for y. Subtract 3 on both sides.
Y = -4
9: the solution is written as (x,y) so the solution would be (3, -4)
Answer:
9 2/5 lb
Step-by-step explanation:
Both melon and berries are "fruits."
The total weight of the fruit used is thus 1 lb + 8 2/5 lb, or 9 2/5 lb.
34=97+29=195 and this is your answer
Answer:
x = 4
Step-by-step explanation:
Cross multiply:
21*2 = 14(x - 1)
42 = 14x - 14
14x = 56
x = 4
