Answer:
number of ways = 720
Step-by-step explanation:
The number of ways six people sit in a six-passenger car is given by the number of permutations of 6 elements in 6 different positions ( seats), then
number of ways = number of permutations of 6 elements = 6! = 6 * 5 * 4 *3 * 2 * 1 = 720
Since the first person that sits can be on any of the seats , but then the second person that sits can choose any of 5 seats (since the first person had already occupied one) , the third can choose 4 ... and so on.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
3.5 pounds × $0.98/pound = $3.43
Adding all of these should equal to 180 from the way the angle is set up.
So the equation should be:
(3x + 2) + (2x + 5) + (2x - 9) = 180
You can remove parentheses as it doesn’t affect the equation since it is all addition.
Let’s first add the common variables together.
3x + 2x + 2x = 7x
2 + 5 + (-9) = -2
So now we should have:
7x - 2 = 180
Now add 2 to both sides.
7x = 182
Divide both sides by 7 to isolate x.
x = 26
So x is 26.
