Answer: Option 'A' is correct.
Step-by-step explanation :
Since we have given that
Number of medals = 2
Number of runners = 8
We need to find the number of ways to award the medals.
We would use "fundamental theorem of counting" to find the number of ways.
So, number of ways is given by
8 × 7 = 56
Hence, option 'A' is correct.
Answer:
(10, 14)
Step-by-step explanation:
To solve this system let's use substitution:
Solve the first equation for x, obtaining x = 24 - y, and then substitute 24 - y for x in the second equation:
3(24 - y) + 5y = 100
Performing the indicated multiplication, we get:
72 - 3y + 5y = 100
Combining like terms results in 72 - 100 = -2y, or -28 = -2y
Thus, y must be 14.
If y = 14, then the first equation tells us that x = 10.
Check: Is this true? 3(10) + 5(14) = 100 YES
The solution is (10, 14).
What was it about the questions on the best that you were supposed to compare to this solution?
Just divide it by 8 and get 1/8 but I’m not so sure that’s right
9 types of bread....a restaurant orders 497 loaves of each type
so there are (497 * 9) = 4473 loaves ordered in total
