5x-5 distributed is 5(x-1).

The common factor of 5x and 5 is 5.

5x divided by 5 is 1x or x.

5 divided by 5 is 1.

So the answer is 5(x-1).

A square with sides x ft long has a perimeter of 34 1/2 ft. How long are the sides of the square

scoundrel [369]

Answer:

8.625 ft for each side.

Step-by-step explanation:

This one's pretty simple. It's a square, so all of its sides are the same length. It's perimeter is given as 34.5 ft, so all you have to do is divide 34.5 by 4 since squares have 4 sides. 34.5/4 is 8.625, which, rounding to the nearest 1/100th, is 8.63. Rounding to the nearest 1/10th it's 8.6, and rounding to the nearest 1th is 9 (although i doubt saying 1th is right, but just because).

Miriam is picking out some movies to rent, and she is primarily interested in comedies and foreign films. She has narrowed down

Keith_Richards [23]

Answer:

There are 795 combinations.

Step-by-step explanation:

The number of ways or combinations in which we can select k element from a group of n elements is given by:

$nCk=\frac{n!}{k!(n-k)!}$

So, if Miriam want to choose 3 movies with at least two comedies, she have two options: Choose 2 comedies and 1 foreign film or choose 3 comedies.

Then, the number of combinations for every case are:

1. Choose 2 Comedies from the 10 and choose 1 foreign film from 15. This is calculated as:

$10C2*15C1=\frac{10!}{2!(10-8)!}*\frac{15}{1!(15-14)!}$

$10C2*15C1=675$

2. Choose 3 Comedies from the 10. This is calculated as:

$10C3=\frac{10!}{3!(10-3)!}=120$

Therefore, there are 795 combinations and it is calculated as:

675 + 120 = 795
