Answer:  The correct option is (d) 240240.

Step-by-step explanation:  Given that a pool of possible jurors consists of 14 men and 10 women.

We are to find the number of different possible juries consisting of 5 men and 7 women.

Since, we need different possible juries, so we will be using combination to solve the given problem.

The number of different juries possible are given by

n\\\\=^{14}C_5\times ^{10}C_7\\\\\\=\dfrac{14!}{5!(14-5)!}\times \dfrac{10!}{7!(10-7)!}\\\\\\=\dfrac{14\times13\times12\times11\times10\times9!}{5\times4\times3\times2\times1\times9!}\times\dfrac{10\times9\times8\times7!}{7!\times3\times2\times1}\\\\\\=2002\times120\\\\=240240.

Thus, the required number of different juries is 240240.

Option (d) is CORRECT.

Solve the system of equations using the elimination method. 2x − 3y = 50;7x + 8y = −10
lorasvet [3.4K]

Answer: C. (10, -10)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

1) 2x-3y=50

2) 7x+8y=-10

Multiply both sides of 1) equation by 3.5

1) 3.5(2x-3y)=3.5×50

   7x-10.5y=175

2) 7x+8y=-10

Subtract 2) equation from the 1)

(7x-10.5y)-(7x+8y)=175-(-10)

-18.5y=185

y=-10

x=10

(10, -10)

Hope this helps!! :)

How to solve equations
stich3 [128]
Here are some things you should know when solving algebraic equations.

If you add an expression to both sides of an equation, the resulting equation will have the same solution set as the original equation. In other words, they will be equivalent. This is true for all operations. As long both sides are treated the same, the equation will stay balanced.

You will also need to know how to combine like terms. But what are like terms to begin with? Like terms are defined as two terms having the same variable(s) (or lack thereof) and are raised to the same power. In mathematics, something raised to the first power stays the same. So, 5x and 10x are like terms because they both have the same variable and are raised to the first power. You don’t see the exponents because it doesn’t change the value of the terms.

To combine like terms, simplify add the coefficients and keep the common variable(s) and exponent.

The distributive property is another important rule you will need to understand.

The distributive property is used mostly for simplifying parentheses in expressions/equations. 

For example, how would you get rid of the parentheses here?

6(x + 1)

If there wasn’t an unknown in between the parentheses, you could just add then multiply. That is what the distributive property solves.
The distributive property states that a(b + c) = ab + ac
So, now we can simplify our expression.

6(x + 1) = 6x + 6

2z-22z+48 completely

The answer would be -20z+44, since 2z-22z is -20z. Then bring the +44 down.
