To estimate, you should round some of the numbers to the closest number (rounding up or down). It will be more accurate the less you round. In this problem, we should round -5 1/4 to -5 since it is the closest. -5*-3/2 = 7.7. You will end up with -3/2x (-5 1/4) ≈ 7.5x
≈ means approximately equal.
Set up a proprtion and cross multiply.
18/7.5=22/4x+1
7.5×22=18 (4x+1)
165=72x+18
147=72x
x=2.04
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
12P3 = 12! / (12-3)!
= 12*11*10
= 1320.
8C7 = 8!/7! *(8-7)!
= 8.
