X = B.......x - 17 = A
x + x - 17 = 87
2x - 17 = 87
2x = 87 + 17
2x = 104
x = 104/2
x = 52........so state B has 52 electoral votes
x - 17 = A
52 - 17 = A
35 = A.....so state A has 35 electoral votes
Answer: Option 'A' is correct.
Step-by-step explanation :
Since we have given that
Number of medals = 2
Number of runners = 8
We need to find the number of ways to award the medals.
We would use "fundamental theorem of counting" to find the number of ways.
So, number of ways is given by
8 × 7 = 56
Hence, option 'A' is correct.
