I think that the answer is #2.
Answer : 7 or 7/1
step by step explanation:
Answer:
Original number = 38
Step-by-step explanation:
10*x + y
x = y - 5
10y + x = 2 (10x + y) + 7
10y + y - 5 = 2(10(y - 5) + y) + 7
11y - 5 = 2(10y - 50 + y ) + 7
11y - 5 = 2(11y - 50) + 7
11y - 5 = 22y - 100 + 7
11y - 5 = 22y - 93
11y + 88 = 22y
88 = 11y
y = 8
x = y - 5
x = 8 - 5
x = 3
So the original number is 38. Does that work?
3 is 5 less than 8.
83 = 2*38 + 7
83 = 76 + 7
83 = 83. Yes it works.
First question seems incomplete :
Answer:
40 ways
Step-by-step explanation:
Question B:
Number of boys = 6
Number of girls = 4
Number of people in committee = 3
Number of ways of selecting committee with atleast 2 girls :
We either have :
(2 girls 1 boy) or (3girls 0 boy)
(4C2 * 6C1) + (4C3 * 6C0)
nCr = n! ÷ (n-r)!r!
4C2 = 4! ÷ 2!2! = 6
6C1 = 6! ÷ 5!1! = 6
4C3 = 4! ÷ 1!3! = 4
6C0 = 6! ÷ 6!0! = 1
(6 * 6) + (4 * 1)
36 + 4
= 40 ways
You are correct!
Step 1:Write what you know
Madeline's Height: 6 ftMadeline's Shadow: 108 in
Friend's Height: X (we use X as a variable because his height is unknown)Friend's Shadow: 108 in - 1.5 ft 108 in - 18 in 90 in
Step 2:Set up proportions
6 x----- = -----108 90
Step 3:Cross Multiply & Solve
108x = 540x = 5 ft tall
