Answer:
integer = 5
rational number but not an integer - 3 and a 1/2
irrational number - it's the one with 11
X*y=72
x = 5y-2
x=72/y
72/y=5y-2
72=5y^2-2y
5y^2 -2y - 72 = 0
(5y+18)(y-4)=0
y = -18/5 discard
or y = 4
4x=72
x=18
(18,4)
The number of permutations of 8 people taken 6 at a time is given by:
He divided the wrong way. 7/33 = .2121.....and 2/11 = .1818...., so actually 2/11 < 7/33
For the first number you can choose from 8, for the second number only 7, for the third number only 6. So the number of combinations is 8x7x6=336
