Step-by-step explanation:
Count how many of the same number, since you have four 8's the exponent will be
same applies for 3
5/8 that's how ratio of students that will buy lunch. so in order to find number students who will buy the lunch out of 720, just multiply 720 with 5/8 ie, 720x5/8 ie 450.
450 is answer
Yes, your answer is right.
Answer:
(½x+½y)²=6
Step-by-step explanation:
x^2 + y^2 = 14, xy=5
(A+B)^2=A^2 +2AB+B^2... (*)
(1/2x+1/2y)^2 =(*)
(1/2x)^2 +2(1/2x)(1/2y)+(1/2y)^2 =
1/4x^2 +1/2xy+1/4y^2=
1/4(x^2 +y^2) +1/2(xy)=
1/4*14+1/2*5=
14/4+5/2=
14/4+10/4=
24/4=6
let me know if I'm wrong.
Pairs, in this case, relates to a group of 2 or more. We have 6 friends. Let's call them A,B,C,D,E,F. This will allow us to make a [some sort of] combination tree:
1. ABC against DEF
2. ABD against CEF
3. ABE against CDF
4. ABF against CDE
5. ACD against BFE
6. ACE against BDF
7. ACF against BDE
8. ADE against BCF
9. ADF against BCE
10. AEF against BCD
I believe there are 12 combinations... I just can't think of the last 2 though.
