Answer:
1287
Step-by-step explanation:
Number of people in elevator , n = 8
Number of floors, r = 6
Since they all look alike, arrangement doesn't matter, the we use combination :
(n+r-1 r - 1) = (8+6-1 C 6-1) = 13C5
Recall:
nCr = n! / (n-r)!r!
13C5 = 13! / (13-5)!5!
13C5 = 13*12*11*10*9 / 5*4*3*2*1
= 1287
16 would be the range. The lowest value is 5, and the highest value is 21. You just subtract those two which gives you 16! (:
<span>Subtracting 2x from both sides of the equation would be a reasonable first step in solving this equation as it properly combines like terms to the left side of the equation. It quickly shows that the next step would be adding 1 to both sides of the equation, which would have us arrive at the answer of x = 5.</span>
Answer:
68
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x=adult tickets and y=child tickets
1) 15x+11y=1889
2) x+y=147
multiply equation 1 by -1/11 on both sides to get:
-(15/11)x-y=-171.73
add new equation with equation 2 to get
-4/11x=-24.73
Isolate x to get:
x=67.99999
Round up to get 68 adult tickets
2(200+75) That would be one expression that can be used to find that.
