30 percent decrease

Step-by-step explanation:

looking at this i know its a percent decrease

so how do we find percent decrease ?

first we subtract the first value 39.39 & the final value 27.57

39.39-27.57 = 11.82

then we divide 11.82 by the first value

like this 11.82÷39.39 = 0.3000

then we multiply what we got by 100

0.3000×100= 30 percent

the way that most people mess up is when they divide sometimes they might do 39.39 divided by 11.82 instead of 11.82÷39.39.

If the Math Olympiad Club consists of 11 students, how many different teams of 3 students can be formed for competitions?
vivado [14]

Answer:

165 different teams of 3 students can be formed for competitions

Step-by-step explanation:

Combinations of m elements taken from n in n (m≥n) are called all possible groupings that can be made with the m elements so that:

  • Not all items fit
  • No matter the order
  • Elements are not repeated

That is, a combination is an arrangement of elements where the place or position they occupy within the arrangement does not matter. In a combination it is interesting to form groups and their content.

To calculate the number of combinations, the following expression is applied:

C=\frac{m!}{n!*(m-n)!}

It indicates the combinations of m objects taken from among n objects, where the term "n!" is called "factorial of n" and is the multiplication of all the numbers that go from "n" to 1.

In this case:

  • n: 3
  • m: 11

Replacing:

C=\frac{11!}{3!*(11-3)!}

Solving:

C=\frac{11!}{3!*8!}

being:

  • 3!=3*2*1=6
  • 8!=8*7*6*5*4*3*2*1=40,320
  • 11!=39,916,800

So:

C=\frac{39,916,800}{6*40,320}

C= 165

Beth is solving this equation: 1/x + 3 = 3/x
liubo4ka [24]

Answer:

B and C

Step-by-step explanation:

The really tough one to get rid of is A. She's right in her method and it sounds like A should be a deal breaker. Suppose however, you make y = 1/x. Now the equation is linear.

y + 3 = 3y            Subtract y from both sides

3 = 3y - y

3 = 2y                  Now divide this by by 2

3/2 = y          

But they are not the same answer!! You've gotten rid of one problem only to create another. Well yes. I never said it was easy getting rid of A. But remember y = 1/x, so x will equal 1 / y.

x = 1/y = 1//3/2 = 2/3

Now they agree.

That's kind of sneaky you might say. That's right it is. But its not wrong. A is not part of the answer.

B is certainly right.

C is correct as well, That's the way the equation is ultimately solved.

D is nonsense. You can do all sorts of things with the letters in equations
