Answer:
f=ab/a+b
Step-by-step explanation:
Let's solve for f.
1/f=1/a+1/b
1.) You have 12 toppings. You choose one topping--that leaves you with 11 toppings. You choose another--that leaves 10. 12×11×10 = 1,320.
Multiply 1,320 topping choices by 6 cheeses to get 7,920 total combinations.
2.) (Though I'm less sure of these)
CDs: 6×5×4×3×2 = 720
Cassettes: 5×4 = 20
DVDs: 8×7×6×5 = 1680
x-5= 0
move -5 to the other side
sign changes from -5 to +5
x-5+5= 0+5
x= 5
x-6= 0
x-6+6= 0+6
x= 6
Answer: B. 5 and 6
<h3>
Answer: (n-1)^2</h3>
This is because we have a list of perfect squares 0,1,4,9,...
We use n-1 in place of n because we're shifting things one spot to the left, since we start at 0 instead of 1.
In other words, if the answer was n^2, then the first term would be 1^2 = 1, the second term would be 2^2 = 4, and so on. But again, we started with 0^2 = 0, so that's why we need the n-1 shift.
You can confirm this is the case by plugging n = 1 into (n-1)^2 and you should find the result is 0^2 = 0. Similarly, if you tried n = 2, you should get 1^2 = 1, and so on. It appears you already wrote the answer when you wrote "Mark Scheme".
All of this only applies to sequence A.
side note: n is some positive whole number.
