Answer:

Javier's equation is not correct because the variable "a" should be multiplied by  only and then added to

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

a------>is the tree’s age in years

we have that

-------> Javier's equation

we know that

The equation that represent the situation is equal to

There are nine empty seats in a theater, and six customers need to find places to sit. How many different ways can these six sea
dybincka [34]

Answer: 60480

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : The number of empty seats in a theater = 9

The number of customers need to find places to sit =6

Since order matters here, so we use permutations

The permutations of n things taking r at a time is given by :-

^nP_r=\dfrac{n!}{(n-r)!}

Then, the number of ways to arrange 6 seat in 9 seats :-

^9P_6=\dfrac{9!}{(9-6)!}=\dfrac{9\times8\times7\times6\times5\times4\times3!}{3!}\\\\=60480

Hence, the number of ways to arrange 6 seat in 9 seats = 60480

Derek says that the quotient of -2/7 divided by -2/21 is -1/3. Part A: What is the correct quotient? Part B: What mistake did De
Thepotemich [5.8K]

Answer:

The correct quotient is 3.

I think Derek has mistaken to divide -\frac{2}{21} by \frac{2}{7}.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have to check the quotient of (-\frac{2}{7})  \textrm{ divided by }(-\frac{2}{21}).

Part A:

Now, (-\frac{2}{7})  \textrm{ divided by }(-\frac{2}{21}).

= \frac{-\frac{2}{7} }{-\frac{2}{21} } =3

So, the correct quotient is 3.

Part B:

Derek says that the quotient is -\frac{1}{3}.  

So, I think Derek has mistaken to divide -\frac{2}{21} by \frac{2}{7}. (Answer)
