Simplify 1/3(6x - 15) to 6x - 15/3
6x - 15/3 = 1/2(10x - 4)
Factor out the common term; 3
3(2x - 5)/3 = 1/2(10x - 4)
Cancel out 3
2x - 5 = 1/2(10x - 4)
Simplify 1/2(10x - 4) to 10x - 4/2
2x - 5 = 10x - 4/2
Factor out the common term; 2
2x - 5 = 2(5x - 2)/2
Cancel out 2
2x - 5 = 5x - 2
Subtract 2x from both sides
-5 = 5x - 2 - 2x
Simplify 5x - 2 - 2x to 3x - 2
-5 = 3x - 2
Add 2 to both sides
-5 + 2 = 3x
Simplify -5 + 2 to -3
-3 = 3x
Divide both sides by 3
- 1 = x
Switch sides
<u>x = -1</u>
The number of possible seats is an illustration of permutation
There are 1728 possible sitting arrangements
<h3>How to determine the number of seats</h3>
From the question, we have the following highlights:
- Chris can only take 1 seat (i.e. the central seat)
- Jo can take 2 seats (i.e. the seats adjacent the central seat)
- Alex, Barb and Dave can take 3! number of seats
- Eddie, Fred, and Gareth can take 3! number of seats on the right of Chris.
- The remaining 4 adults do not have preference, then they can seat in 4! ways
So, the number of sitting arrangement is:
Evaluate the product
Hence, there are 1728 possible sitting arrangements

The answer is 11 i
<em /><em>Explanation:
</em>
The square root needs to be a number that can be multiplied by itself and equal the original number.
In this case, the number is 11, 11*11 = 121
However, you are looking for the square root of a negative number, due to this you would add i to the answer,
i = imaginary number, or -
( Depending on your grade/ teacher however, you can put "no solution"
