Answer:

n = 10

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question,

nC6 = nC4

n!/6!(n-6)! = n!/4!(n-4)!

Simplifying n! out of the equation

⇒ 1/6!(n-6)!  = 1/4!(n-4)!

Crossmultiplying

4!(n-4)! = 6!(n-6)!

4!(n-4)! = 6×5×4!(n-6)!

(n-4)! = 30(n-6)!

(n-4)(n-5)(n-6)! = 30(n-6)!

⇒ (n-4)(n-5) = 30

n²-4n-5n+20 = 30

n²-9n+20-30

n²-9n-10 = 0

Solving the quadratic equation,

n-10n+n-10 = 0

(n-10n)+(n-10) = 0

n(n-10)+1(n-10) = 0

(n+1)(n-10) = 0

Either

n+1 = 0

n = -1

or

n-10 = 0

n = 10

n canot be a negative value,

Therefore, n = 10

Rewrite the equation by completing the square.
Dennis_Churaev [7]
Once you complete the square, the simplified version of this equation is

(2x - 1)^2= 0

If you want to solve for x, subtract 1 and divide by 2.

x = 0.5

erica [24]

Answer:  Approximately 96 square feet

======================================================

Work Shown:

1 ft = 30 cm

1 ft = (5*6) cm

1 ft = 5*(6 cm)

1 ft = 5*(1 board width)

1 ft = 5 board widths

12*(1 ft) = 12*(5 board widths)

12 ft = 60 board widths

12 ft = 1 full wall length

The wall is 12 feet horizontally across and 8 feet tall, so its estimated area is 12*8 = 96 square feet approximately. This is approximate because of the fact we used the approximation of 1 ft = 30 cm.
