Answer:

$x=22$

Step-by-step explanation:

$2(x-10)=24$

Distribute the parenthesis

$2x-20=24$

Add 20 to both sides

$2x=44$

Divide both sides by 2

$\frac{2x}{2} =\frac{44}{2}$

$x=22$

Mashcka [7]

Answer:

360,360 groups of 5 people.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have been given that there are 15 people in an office with 5 different phone lines. We are asked to find groups of 5 people that can answer these lines, if all the lines begin to ring at once.

We will use fundamental principle of counting to solve our given problem.

There are 15 people to answer 1st line, that will leave us with 14 people to answer 2nd line.

Now, we will have 13 people to answer 3rd line, that will leave us with 12 people to answer 4th line.

There are 11 people to answer 5th call.

So 5 lines can be answered in $15\times 14\times 13\times 12\times 11=360,360$ ways.

Therefore, 360,360 groups of 5 people can answer these lines.

A warehouse worker moved 108 pallets in 4.5 hours. In minutes, what is the rate to move one pallet? The worker will be off the c

klasskru [66]

Number of pallets moved in 4.5 hours = 108

converting 4.5 hours in minutes we get,

4*60 + 0.5*60 = 240+30 = 270 minutes

So, 108 pallets were moved in = 270 minutes

1 pallet was moved in = $\frac{270}{108}=2.5$ minutes
