I'm assuming we can say each Democrat, Republican, and Independent are the same element.

Since there are 12 seats, we can seat them in 12! different ways, assuming straight line.
\text{Total(no restrictions): } 12!

However, the four democrats are the same element, since we only care about the different parties. Using this same logic, the 5 Republicans can swap without us knowing and the 3 Independents, as well.

Thus, we've overcounted by a factor of 4! 5! 3!, because each element are identical.

To counter this, we divide by the number of elements repeated:
\text{Total ways: } \frac{12!}{4!5!3!} = 27,720

Pam and Amanda and Mike work at different clothing stores. Amanda made twice what Pam earned and Julie
Dmitriy789 [7]

Answer:

Pam: $181

Amanda: $362

Julie: $452

Step-by-step explanation:

(What does Mike have to do with this problem?)

Let a = Amanda's pay

Let p = Pam's pay

Let j = Julie's pay

"Amanda made twice what Pam earned"

a = 2p

"Julie made $90 more than Amanda"

j = a + 90

j = 2p + 90

Pam earned p

Total salary

a + p + j = 2p + p + 2p + 90

Total salary

$995

2p + p + 2p + 90 = 995

5p = 905

p = 181

a = 2p = 2(181) = 362

j = 2p + 90 = 362 + 90 = 452

Answer:

Pam: $181

Amanda: $362

Julie: $452

The middle side of a triangle is half of 3 times the length of the shortest side. The longest side is 2 centimeters longer than
USPshnik [31]

<u>Answer:</u>  

The difference between the longest and shortest sides of the triangle is 4 cm.

<u>Explanation:</u>

<em>Step Number One:</em>

Let the shortest side of the triangle have a length of x.

The middle side of the triangle has a length that is half of 3 times the length of the shortest side. This can be written as 1/2*3x, which equals 3/2x.

The longest side of the triangle has a length that is 2 centimeters longer than the length of the middle side. This can be written as 3/2x + 2.

<em>Step Number Two: </em>

The perimeter of the triangle, which can be found by adding the lengths of all of the sides of the triangle, is 18 centimeters. This can be shown by the following equations:

Shortest Side + Middle Side + Longest Side = Perimeter

x + 3/2x + 3/2x + 2 = 18

4x + 2 = 18

4x = 16

x = 16/4

x = 4

<em>Step Number Three: </em>

This means that the shortest side of the triangle has a length of 4 centimeters and the longest side of the triangle has a length of 8 centimeters.

8 cm - 4 cm = 4 cm

In which set does -15/3
Serjik [45]

Answer:

Rational numbers

Step-by-step explanation:

A rational number is a number that can be written as a ratio. That means it can be written as a fraction, in which both the numerator (the number on top) and the denominator (the number on the bottom) are whole numbers. The number 8 is a rational number because it can be written as the fraction 8/1.
