Answer:
(a) 4.148 x 10^(12) ways
(b) 5,827,360 ways
Step-by-step explanation:
Number of Demonstrators (D) = 44
Number of Repudiators (R) = 56
(a)
5 senate members must be Repudiators and 5 must be demonstrators, assuming that the order at which they are selected is irrelevant:

(b)
Since there are two different positions, (speaker and vice speaker), order is important in this situation, and the total number of ways to select two senators from each party is:

Write the equations:
8x-10y=20
-7x+10y=20
Add them using elimination
x=40
Now solve for y
8(40)-10y=20
10y=300
y=30
So there you have it: x=40, y=30.
Answer:
k = 6.
Step-by-step explanation:
k = 6
2k = 12
12 - 6 - 3 = 3
k = 1
2k = 2
2 - 6 - 3 = -7
So, the answer is k = 6 because it makes more sense.
