The first choice can be any one of the 8 side dishes.
For each of these . . .
The 2nd choice can be any one of the remaining 7.
Total number of ways to pick 2 out of 8 = (8 x 7) = 56 ways .
BUT ...
That doesn't mean you can get 56 different sets of 2 side dishes.
For each different pair, there are 2 ways to choose them . . .
(first A then B), and (first B then A). Either way, you wind up with (A and B).
So yes, there are 56 different 'WAYS' to choose 2 out of 8.
But there are only 28 different possible results, and 2 'ways'
to get each result.

Answer:
11.2 miles
Step-by-step explanation:
We can create a triangle from the information given.
<u>We can call the starting point (0,0) in the coordinate system.</u>
- <u>10 mi east</u> - 10 miles to the right. then,
- <u>5 mi north</u> - 5 miles above
<em><u>See the attached picture. The direct distance is labeled as x.</u></em>
Now we need to find x using pythagorean theorem.
Pythagorean Theorem = leg²+leg²=hypotenuse²
Solving for x:

<em>Rounding to nearest tenth, we have </em><em>11.2 miles</em>
Answer:
18.75%
Step-by-step explanation:
Green beans = 160 pounds
Amount sold in 1 hour = 10 pounds
Amount sold in 3 hours = 3x10= 30 pounds
Decrease in 3 hours = 30 pounds
% decrease = (30/160) x 100
=300/16
=75/4
=18.75%
