There are 8! possible combinations, or 8p8, and there is only 1 that has them in order from oldest to youngest, so the answer is A.
Elimination would be the best
Answer:
3 bulbs should be flawed
Step-by-step explanation:
2+ 18 = 20
20 bulbs were examined
2/20 = 1/10 were flawed
looking at the next 30 bulbs
30 * 1/10 = 3
3 of the next 30 bulbs should be flawed
Answer:a = - 2
b = - 3
c = 3
Step-by-step explanation:
a + 5b - c = - 20 - - - - - - - - - 1
4a - 5b + 4c = 19 - - - - - - - - - 2
-a - 5b - 5c = 2 - - - - - - - - - - - 3
Adding equation 1 and equation 2, it becomes
- 6c = - 18
c = - 18/ - 6 = 3
Multiplying equation 2 by 1 and equation 3 by 4, it becomes
4a - 5b + 4c = 19
-4a - 20b - 20c = 8
Adding both equations, it becomes
- 25b - 16c = 27
- 25b = 27 + 16c = 27 + 16 × 3
- 25b = 75
b = 75/- 25 = - 3
Substituting b = - 3 and c = 3 into equation 1, it becomes
a + 5 × - 3 - 3 = - 20
a - 15 - 3 = - 20
a - 18 = - 20
a = - 20 + 18 = - 2
