Answer:

Trey = 9 text messages

Rachel = 19 text messages

Juan = 57 text messages

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

Number of messages Trey sent = x

Number of messages Rachel sent = x + 10

Number of messages Juan sent = 3(x + 10)

Total messages = 85

Total = Trey + Rachel + Juan

85 = x + (x + 10) + 3(x + 10)

85 = x + x + 10 + 3x + 30

85 = 5x + 40

85 - 40 = 5x

45 = 5x

x = 45/5

x = 9

Number of messages Trey sent = x = 9 text messages

Number of messages Rachel sent = x + 10

= 9 + 10

= 19 text messages

Number of messages Juan sent = 3(x + 10)

= 3(9 + 10)

= 3(19)

= 57 text messages

A point is dilated with respect to the origin. Determine the value of K and state whether the dilation is an expansion or contra
vlabodo [156]
Scale Factor (K) = (new length/measure)/ (original length/measure)
for x-coordinate  = 8/2 = 4
for y-coordinate  = 16/4 = 4

K=4, expansion

K is the representation of "scale factor". Scale factor is the ratio of the lengths involved of the similar figures. It can be used to identify the kind of dilation, whether it is contraction or expansion. If the Scale Factor is greater than 1, then that means expansion and if it is less than 1, then it signifies contraction.

Afina-wow [57]

Answer:

There are 17,418,240 different ways to choose the teams.

Step-by-step explanation:

Arrangements of n elements:

The number of possible arrangements of n elements is given by:

A_{n} = n!

In how many different ways can the teams be chosen so that the number of employees on each project are as follows: 9, 4, 2?

This is:

Arrangement of 9 elements, followed by an arrangement of 4 elements followed by an arrangement of 2 elements. So

T = A_{9}*A_{4}*A_{2} = 9!*4!*2! = 362880*24*2 = 17418240

There are 17,418,240 different ways to choose the teams.
