A. There are 9 members of the Supreme Court, with one Chief Justice and eight associates justices.
b. With 9 justices and all of them shaking their hands once, they would have to make 36 handshakes, because they wouldn't have to handshake the same person again, and for the first justice, they would have to shake either other hands, with the second one only needing to shake seven hands, the third making only six handshakes and so on, until one of them only has to make one handshake. In an equation, this is 8+7+6+5+4+3+2+1, which gives you the sum of 36. The justices have to make 36 handshakes total.
10 3/5 is the correct answer
Answer:
No solution or x ∈ ∅
Step-by-step explanation:
We have given the equation ⇒ x+12 = (x+14) -3
if we solve this equation ⇒ x+12 = x+14-3
⇒x+12= x+11
⇒12 ≠ 11
which state that x ∈ ∅
i.e. there is no value of x which make the equation true
therefore, No solution
