I got 75582.
Explanation:
First, group the 40 identical candies into 20 pairs. It doesn't matter how since the candies are identical. This grouping will ensure that any assigment will contain at least two candies.
Then think of the 20 groups a 20 beads on a string. We are looking to place 11 separators between them to obtain 12 segments, each with a varying number of beads between them. How many ways are there to place 11 separators to 19 potential spaces between beads? The asnwer is 
There are many different types of equations we can use to allow x to equal 19! Below are some examples :) See if you can come up with some on your own based off of these examples:
5x = 95.....................................Divide both sides b 5
x = 19.......................................There's one for you :)
_____________________________________________________________
1 + x - 5 = 15............................Combine like terms
x - 4 = 15..................................Add 4 to both sides
x = 19

There's just a couple of examples, but see if you can come up with some on your own and let me know if you get stuck!
Thank you for your question! I hope this helped! Have an amazing day and feel free to let me know if I can help you any further! :D
Answer:
it is d
Step-by-step explanation:
-4x + 6y = 24
4x + y = -10
7y = 14
y = 2
2x - 6 = -12
2x = -6
x= -3
Answer:
The big number is 41 and the small number is 32.
Step-by-step explanation:
b + s = 73
2b - s = 50 Add these equations together
3b = 123 Divide both sides by 3
b = 41
Now plug this into the first equation to find s
41 + s = 73
-41 - 41
s = 32
