There are 8! possible combinations, or 8p8, and there is only 1 that has them in order from oldest to youngest, so the answer is A.
To solve this problem, we must set up a system of equations. In this case, let's let Maggie's age be represented by the variable m and her brother's age be represented by the variable b. We are told that the sum of their ages is 24, which gives us our first equation: m + b = 24. We can construct our next equation from the first sentence of given information: b = 2m - 3. This makes our system of equations:
m + b = 24
b = 2m - 3
To solve, we are going to substitute the value for b in terms of m given by the second equation into the first equation for the variable b.
m + b = 24
m + 2m - 3 = 24
To simplify, we must first combine the variable terms on the left side of the equation using addition.
3m - 3 = 24
Next, we should add 3 to both sides of the equation to get the variable term alone on the left side of the equation.
3m = 27
Finally, we should divide both sides by 3 in order to get the variable m alone.
m = 9
Therefore, Maggie is 9 years old (using the first equation and substituting in this value you can find that her brother is 15 years old).
Hope this helps!
Answer:
c
Step-by-step explanation:
this is 9n>27. THIS is truuuuuuuuuuuueeeeeee
25 percent is the same as the decimal 0.25.
Multiply 100 by 0.25 to see what 25% of 100 is.
100x0.25=25
Then, to find the price raised by 25%, add 25 to 100.
100+25=125
The final answer is $125.
Hope this helps!
Answer:
10π (31.415926)
√101(10.0498756)
9.92749...
0.99853...
Step-by-step explanation:
For 10π, we can simplify π into 3.14 for an approximate amount. 3.14*10=31.4
For the square root of ten, we can estimate it's between 10 and 11 since 10 squared is 100 and 11 squared is 121.
