Answer:

(-1,10)

Step-by-step explanation:

At the point when the paths cross, the respective x and y values of each equation will be equal.

Your path is y=2x+12, and your friends path is 4x+y=6. Sub 2x+12 in for y (from your path's equation) into your friends equation to find the value of x:

4x+2x+12=6

6x=-6

x=-1

y=2x+12

y=2(-1)+12=10

So you will cross paths at (-1,10)

Answer: 120

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

Since the order of the numbers doesn't matter we can use the formula:

$\dfrac{n!}{r!(n-r)!}\quad \text{where n is the quantity of items and r is the quantity chosen}\\\\\text{In this problem, there are 10 numbers (n = 10) and 7 to be chosen (r = 7)}\\\\_{10}C_{7}=\dfrac{10!}{7!(10-7)!}\\\\.\qquad=\dfrac{10!}{7!3!}\\\\.\qquad=\dfrac{10\times 9\times 8\times 7!}{7!\times 3\times 2\times 1}\\\\.\qquad=10\times 3\times 4\\\\.\qquad=120$
