Answer:

Based on the current information, the last man remaining unmarried will be a choice between two

Jason marries Anna

Matt marries Elizabeth

Kevin marries Barbara

Larry marries Diane

Carol can marry either Nick or Oscar

Step-by-step explanation:

The basic method to sort which woman will be marrying which man is simple.

We have to extract the choice by comparing choices of each woman side by side and then selecting the least common one and hence sorting one by one.

First, let's name all the women and men

1. Anna

2. Barbara

3. Carol

4. Diane

5. Elizabeth

We will refer to them with the initial letter of their name . A for Anna, B for Barbara, C for Carol, D for Diane, E for Elizabeth.

The men :

1. Jason

2. Larry

3. Matt

4. Kevin

5. Oscar

6. Nick

And they will be referred as J for Jason, L for Larry, M for Matt, K for Kevin, O for Oscar  and N for Nick.

Options for A : J , L ,M

Options for B : K, L

Options for C : J, N , O

Options for D : J, L , N , O

Options for E : J, M

As we can see , no one else wants Kevin other than Barbara so :

Kevin marries Barbara

Moving onwards:

Elizabeth can marry either Jason or Matt,

Meanwhile Anna can marry either Jason , Larry or Matt  

Hence,

Matt marries Eilzabeth

as Anna has two more choices still which are Jason and Larry.

Further, seeing the options for Carol and Diane

Carol can marry either Jason, Nick or Oscar while Diane can marry Larry as well as Jason , Nick and Oscar

We can select Jason as the match for Anna as Larry is also a choice for Diane.

Hence, Jason marries Anna

Now we are left with Larry , Nick and Oscar.

Since Carol can only decide from Nick and Oscar but Diane can decide from Larry, Nick and Oscar. Larry is the ideal option for Diane

so, Larry marries Diane

Now in the end, Carol can either choose between Nick or Oscar.

If she chooses Nick to marry, Oscar is left single

If she chooses Oscar to marry, Nick is left single.

A school is organising a competition. There are 128 students from the Maths specialist class and 80 students from the English sp
Elden [556K]

Answer:

5 english students in each team

Step-by-step explanation:

So there are multiple ways to do this, you could do trial and error or you could factor out common numbers between the two.

Through trial and error, the lowest possible number of groups that could be divided between the number of students whilst still being able to maintain a whole # was 16 groups

  • 128 math students ÷16 groups = 8 math students/group
  • 80 english students ÷ 16 groups = 5 english students/group

The other way to solve this is to factor out common numbers between the two:

What is the slope of the line equation 7x-3y=21
kramer
Equation: 7x - 3y = 21

3y = 7x - 21

Divide both sides by 3, 

y = 7/3x - 7

Compare it with principle equation, y = mx + c

Here, slope (m) = 7/3

In short, Your Answer would be: 7/3

Hope this helps!

Which transformations can be used to map a triangle with vertices A(2, 2), B(4, 1), C(4, 5) to A’(–2, –2), B’(–1, –4), C’(–5, –4
Romashka [77]
The triangles ABC and A'B'C' are shown in the diagram below. The transformation is a reflection in the line y=-x. This is proved by the fact that the distance between each corner ABC to the mirror line equals to the distance between the mirror line to A'B'C'.
