Answer:

The price of single dark chocolate truffle was $4.5.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the price of white chocolate be x and dark chocolate be y.

Three white chocolate truffles cost the same as two dark chocolate truffles. Mathematically can be written as:

3x=2y...[1]

Number of white chocolate truffles = 5

Cost of 5 white chocolate truffles = 5x

Number of dark chocolate truffles = 10

Cost of 10 dark chocolate truffles = 10y

Total money spend on  5 white chocolate truffles and 10 dark chocolate truffles= $60.00

5x+10y=\$60.00..[2]

Solving [1] ans [2] ,we get :

x = $3

y = $4.5

The price of single dark chocolate truffle was $4.5.

Evaluate the following expression. 12!
Romashka-Z-Leto [24]

Answer:479001600

Step-by-step explanation:

12 factorial is 12 * 11 * 10 ..... all the way to one

A way to do it by hand is

12 * 1

11 * 2

10 * 3

9 * 4

8 * 5

7 * 6

stop here because 6 * 7 and 5 *8 are already listed

This gives you 6 products then multiply those 6 products by pairs which gives you three pairs which gives you three products then compute a pair then multiply by last product.

Easy math but a lot of written work
