Answer: 64 short-sleeved shirts were purchased.

Step-by-step explanation: (x = short-sleeved shirts. y = long-sleeved shirts.)  

x + y = 100

10x + 12y = 1072

—12(x + y = 100) >>> -12x - 12y = -1200                                                                                                           10x + 12y = 1072 (add the equations and cancel out the 12y)

-2x/-2 (-2 cancels out) = -128/-2   (divide both by -2)

<u>x = 64 shirts purchased for $10 each.   (Hope this helped!)</u>

(vvvThis next part doesn’t answer the question, but I should finish the equation.)

(Plug in 64 for x)>>> 64 + y = 100 (then, subtract 64 from both sides) >>> 64 - 64 = 0 (they cancel out) and 100 - 64 = 36

<u>y = 36 shirts purchased for $12 each.</u>

I really hope this helped! :)

earnstyle [38]

Answer:

220

Step-by-step explanation:

There are 6 comedies and 12 non-comedies.  He wants all 6 of the comedies, and 3 of the non-comedies.

The number of ways he can choose 6 comedies from 6 is ₆C₆ = 1.

The number of ways he can choose 3 non-comedies from 12 is ₁₂C₃ = 220.

So the total number of combinations is 1 × 220 = 220.

Here is a simple way we can do this.
We have six blanks.
__ __ __ __ __ __

Now, we have 13 possible options to fill in blank number one.
13 __ __ __ __ __

Now we have 12 possible options to fill in blank number two because one person has already been chosen.
13 12 __ __ __ __

Now we have 11 possible options for blank number three.
13 12 11 __ __ __

Now we have 10 possible options for blank number four.
13 12 11 10 __ __

And so forth until we get:
13 12 11 10 9 8

Now we just have to multiply the numbers all together.
13 * 12 * 11 * 10 * 9 * 8
is equal to:
1235520 ways.

Find the domain of the function.
timurjin [86]

When taking square roots, you can't take square roots of negative roots of negative numbers. So, what will work for the domain of u(x) is what makes u(x) zero or more. We can make an inequality for that.

u(x) ≥ 0.

\sqrt{9x+27} \geq  0

9x + 27 ≥ 0 by squaring both sides

9x ≥ -27

x ≥ -3

So the domain of the function is when x ≥ -3 is true.
