Answer:

*Assuming that the question should read '8 years less than 3 times Danielle's age'*

Equation:  3a - 8 = 34, where 'a' = Danielle's age

Danielle's age (a) = 14

Step-by-step explanation:

Using key words and phrases from the problem, we can find Danielle's age by setting up an equation to solve for 'a'.  

Since Danielle's aunt is '8 years less than 3 times Danielle's age' her aunt's age can be written as:  3a - 8.  We also know her aunt is 34.  So, the equation becomes:

3a - 8 = 34

Add 8 to both sides:  3a - 8 + 8 = 34 + 8 or 3a = 42

Divide both sides by 3:  3a/3 = 42/3

Solve for a:  a = 14, so Danielle's age is 14 years old.

At a benefit​ concert, fifteen bands have volunteered to perform but there is only enough time for five of the bands to play. Ho
Iteru [2.4K]

Answer:

360,360

Step-by-step explanation:

So we only have 5 spots, but 15 bands to fill those spots.

For the first spot, we can choose from any of the 15 bands, so we have 15 choices.

For the second spot, we can choose from the 14 remaining bands (because we already chose one for the first spot), so we have 14 choices.

For the third spot, by similar reasoning as above, we have 13 choices; for the fourth spot, 12 choices; and for the last spot, we have 11 choices.

We realize that for each of the 15 possible bands in the first spot, we still have 14 possible bands for the second spot, and so on. Thus, we know to multiply instead of add.

Our answer is: 15 * 14 * 13 * 12 * 11 = 360,360

Which function has the greatest constant of variation? A x 8 9 10 11 y 20 22.5 25 27.5 B x 1 2 3 4 y 3.2 6.4 9.6 12.8
Lina20 [59]

Answer : B x 1 2 3 4 y 3.2 6.4 9.6 12.8

WE analyze the first option A

x -- y -- Difference

8 -- 20

9 -- 22.5 -- 2.5

10 -- 25 -- 2.5

11 -- 27.5 -- 2.5

From the first function we can see there is a constant difference of 2.5.

We analyze the second option B

x -- y -- Difference

1 -- 3.2

2 -- 6.4 -- 3.2

3 -- 9.6 -- 3.2

48 -- 12.8 -- 3.2

From the second function we can see there is a constant difference of 3.2

3.2 is the greatest

So second function B has the greatest constant of variation.
