Answer: 10
Imagine you have 2 slots or boxes that are empty. They represent the possible choices for the letter you pick. For example, you can place B in slot 1 and D in slot 2. There are 5 choices for slot 1 (A,B,C,D,E) and four choices for slot 2. Why 4? Because after we pick the letter for slot 1, we have one less letter to pick from. We can't reuse that letter.
Now multiply those values 5 and 4 to get 20. There are 20 different ways to pick a pair of letters from a pool of 5 total. However, order does NOT matter because the segment AB is the same as BA. Since order doesn't matter, we are doubly counting when we shouldn't. In other words, our count is two times higher than it should be. Instead of 20 pairs, it's actually 20/2 = 10 pairs. That's why the answer is 10.
The list of 10 segments are: {AB,AC,AD,AE,BC,BD,BE,CD,CE,DE}
Side note: you can use the nCr combination formula with n = 5 and r = 2 to get the same answer.
Answer:
Chantal and Trisha will have both traveled 105 miles in 20 minutes.
Step-by-step explanation:
is distance in miles,
is time in hours.
The two equations are:


Set them equal to each other and solve for x:





Plug that back into the equations to confirm this
gives the same
:


Step-by-step explanation:
The sum of the interior angles of a convex regular polygon is 180 times (n-2), where n is the number of sides. Since we already know the sum, we can write 3,960 = 180(n-2). If you solve for n in this equation, you will have the number of sides.

Substitute x = 5 in the equation.

Therefore, the answer is -15 or last choice when x = 5.
