Answer:

  C

Step-by-step explanation:

The step shown indicates that y was eliminated from the equations. For choices A, B, D, this is done by adding the equations together (the y-coefficients are opposites). The result of doing that gives x-terms of 4x, 0x, and 0x, respectively. These x-terms do not match the one given: 2x.

For choice C, the y-term is eliminated by subtracting twice the second equation from the first. Doing that gives ...

  (4x +2y) -2(x +y) = (14) -2(3)

  4x +2y -2x -2y = 14 -6 . . . . eliminate parentheses

  2x = 8 . . . . . . . . . . . . . . collect terms

Step-by-step explanation:

a) permutation occurrs when order of choices matters.N = 4P3 = 4!/(4-3)! = 4!/1!N = 24 waysb) combination occurs when order of choices doesn't matter.N = 4C3 = 4!/3!(4-3)! = 4!/3!(1!)N = 4 ways(hope this helps:)

fredd [130]
All triangles have angles that sum to 180 degrees.
So,
Angle C = 180 - 35 - 40
Angle C = 105 degrees
