The answer to this question would be 792If A is the number of prizes and B is the number of people, the formula that needed to solve this question would be C(A+B-1, B-1) 
If you put the number it will become C(5+8-1, 8-1)= C(12,7)
Then the possible way should be:
12!/ 7! 5!= <span>479001600/ 120*5040= 792 ways</span>

Solve the system of equations
Blababa [14]

Answer:

x = 3

y = 1

Step-by-step explanation:

(2x + 4y = 10) * 2 = (4x + 8y =20)

4x = 20 - 8y

Plug that into the other equation

(20 - 8y) - y = 11

-9y = -9

y = 1

Plug this value into one of the original equations

2x + 4(1) = 10

2x = 6

x = 3

Solve for j. 144j2 + 21 = 85
Sphinxa [80]

Answer:

2/3

Step-by-step explanation:

I assume the 2 after the j is a square. So, we bring the 21 to the other side by subtracting it from both sides, getting 144j^2=64. Now we divide to get 64/144 = j^2. Make sure NOT to simplify it, it's perfect right now. The square root of that is \sqrt{64}/ \sqrt{144}, or 8/12, which we can now simplify to 2/3. Hope this helps!

Charlie's weight is nine kilograms greater than his brother's. Together they weigh 99 kilograms. Let x represent the weight of t
spayn [35]
C=x+9, c+x=99, c=99-x

So we have two equations equal to c, c=x+9 and c=99-x, since c=c:

x+9=99-x

2x+9=99

2x=90

x=45, and since c=x+9, c=54

So Charlie weighs 54 kg and his brother weighs 45 kg.
