Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

x-(2x+3)

Notice that we can't further simplify the things in the bracket so we should multiply by -1

Technically this is like:

x - 1(2x+3)

-1 times 2x = -2x   , -1 times 3 is -3

= x - 2x - 3

= -x - 3

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told that

   The number of tickets are   n = 8

    The number of finalist are r   =3

Generally the number of way by which this winners can be drawn and arrange in the order of   1^{st} , \  2nd ,  \  3rd    is mathematically represented as

             \left n} \atop {}} \right. P_r  =  \frac{n\ !}{(n-r) !}

substituting values

             \left n} \atop {}} \right. P_r  =  \frac{ 8!}{(8-3) !}

           \left n} \atop {}} \right. P_r  =  \frac{ 8* 7*6*5*4*3*2*1}{ 5*4*3*2*1}

           \left n} \atop {}} \right. P_r  =  336
