Okay, so here, we know that -10 is the slope, therefore, it is also the constant of proportionality.
'x' is the unknown value, that tells us to multiply by -10.
So, on a graph, we would consider that per unit, it would decrease by -10, since its a negative slope.
Hope I helped, if you have further questions or concerns, feel free to PM me. Thanks! :D
You have to move the decimal
Answer:
459
Step-by-step explanation:
First line:
clock showing 9 o'clock + clock showing 9 o'clock + clock showing 3 o'clock = 9 + 9 + 3 = 21
Second line:
The calculators look exactly the same.
3 * calculators = 30
1 calculator = 10
Third line:
1 bulb + 1 bulb - 1 bulb = 15
Since 1 bulb - 1 bulb = 0, we have 1 bulb + 0 = 15, or
1 bulb = 15
Last line:
Clock showing 9 o'clock = 9
Calculator = 10
3 bulbs = 3 * 15 = 45
Total = 9 + 10 * 45 = 9 + 450 = 459
Answer:
80
Step-by-step explanation:
A certain company employs 6 senior officers and 4 junior officers. If a committee is to be created that is made up of 3 sr officers and 1 jr officer, how many different committees are possible?
8
24
58
80*
210
I initially got this one wrong, but after I saw the answer which is 80, I was able to solve it. But im not sure if this is the proper way of solving it, or if someone can suggest a more efficient way of solving it?
This is what I did, which was wrong:
Sr Officers + Jr Officers
(6!/3! 3! = 20) + (4!/3! = 4) = 24
It seems like the correct answer is:
Sr Officers X Jr Officers
(6!/3! 3! = 20) x (4!/3! = 4) = 80
If this is the most efficient way of solving, when do you know when to add them as opposed to multiplying them in this case?
