Start off by combining like terms on the LHS (the terms with x in them).
So we get
Replacing this result with what we had before on the LHS, we get
⇒Solve for x (divide both sides
)
⇒Don't forget about reciprocity rules when dividing. This is the same as multiplying both sides by
⇒
⇒
***This is a proper fraction
Answer:
40320 different ways
Step-by-step explanation:
That problem is a permutation one
We have eight people to occupy one position in a team, without any constraint at all
So
Total number of events = P(8)
P (8) = 8!
P (8) = 8*7*6*5*4*3*2*1
P (8) = 40320 different ways
Answer:
2
Step-by-step explanation:
do 9 plus negative 5 then divide by 2 to get your answer
"-y (less than or greater than sign) 136" translates into two separate inequalities:
-y < 136 and -y > 136.
You want to solve for y in each case. To do this, multiply each inequality by "-1" and then immediately change the direction of the inequality sign.
For example: -1(-y < 136) => y > -136.
