Answer:
x=-16
Step-by-step explanation:
Ler the number be x.
Now we have,
Hope it will help you.
If you divide 270 / 1.35 you get 200 so 1.35 times 200 = 270
The first thing to do is to calculate how many ways you can choose 3 people from a set of eight. In order to do this, we need to use the attached formula.
(The letter 'n' stands for the entire set and 'r' stands for the number of objects we wish to choose.)
So we wish to choose 3 people ('r') form a set of 8 ('n')
combinations = n! / r! * (n - r)!
combinations = 8 ! / (3! * 5!)
combinations = 8 * 7 * 6 * 5! / (3!) * (5!)
combinations = 8 * 7 * 6 / 3 * 2
combinations = 56
Now of those 56 combinations, the 3 people can finish in 6 different ways.
For example, persons A, B and C could finish
ABC or ACB or BAC or BCA or CAB or CBA
So to get the TOTAL combinations we multiply 56 * 6 which equals
336 so the answer is (a)
Answer:
The second one will make a rectangular prism.
Answer: Choice B) (24,10)
---------------------------------------------------------
Work Shown:
2x - 4y = 8
2( x ) - 4y = 8
2( 3y-6 ) - 4y = 8 ... notice x has been replaced with 3y-6
2(3y)+2(-6) - 4y = 8
6y-12 - 4y = 8
2y-12 = 8
2y-12+12 = 8+12 ... add 12 to both sides
2y = 20
2y/2 = 20/2 ... divide both sides by 2
y = 10
If y = 10, then
x = 3y-6
x = 3*10-6 ... replace y with 10
x = 30-6
x = 24
Put together, the solution is (x,y) = (24,10)
which is why the answer is choice B
As a check, we can plug (x,y) = (24,10) into each equation
x = 3y-6
24 = 3*10 - 6
24 = 30 - 6
24 = 24 ... true equation
and similarly for the second equation as well
2x-4y = 8
2*24 - 4*10 = 8
48 - 40 = 8
8 = 8 ... true equation
Both equations are true when (x,y) = (24,10) so the solution is confirmed
