Answer:

D 7

Step-by-step explanation:

Total no. of bulb= 5

no. of defected bulb= 3

no. of not defected bulb=2

Total no. of bulb combination = 5C2

=5!/2!(5-2)!

= 5!/2!3!

= 5×4×3×2×1/2×1×3×2×1

=120/12

=10

( since a room can be lighted with one bulb also)

total no. of bulb combination when room shall not light = 3C2

3!/2!(3-2)!

= 3!/2! 1!

= 3×2×1/2×1×1

= 6/2

=3

Now,

Total no. of trial when room shall light

=10-3

=7

Hence, number of trial when the room shall be lighted is 7 which is option d

the measure of the angle is 88 degrees greater than its complement. what is the measure of the complement?
vazorg [7]
Let the angle be x and it's complement be c.

Then, x = c + 88 and x + c = 90

Substitute the first equation in the second.

(c+88) + c = 90
2c+88 = 90
2c = 2
c =1 

Compliment = 1
Angle = 89

According to the 2010 U.S. Census, there are approximately 8 million people living in Virginia. This is 2.8 million less than 4
grandymaker [24]

Solution: We are given that the population of Virginia is 8 million.

Let x be the population of Nevada.

We are given population of Virginia is 2.8 million less than 4 times the population of Nevada.

\therefore 4x-2.8=8

      4x=8+2.8

      4x=10.8

      x=\frac{10.8}{4} =2.7

The first step is to on both sides.

add 2.8

The second step is to on both sides.

divide 4

The population of Nevada is million.

2.7

Simplify 30x-140-(x-4)
balu736 [363]

Answer:

x = 4.7

Step-by-step explanation:

30x - 140 -(x - 4)

Multiply the -1 into (x - 4)

30x - 140 - x + 4

Add/subtract

29x - 136 = 0

      +136

29x = 136

\frac{29x}{29} = \frac{136}{29}

x = 4.689655172413793
