You are correct. For each of the three possibilities for their second day, there are two possibilities for the third day.
The total number of possibilities is 3*2 = 6.
3(x-7)+8=-20
Multiply the bracket by 3
(3)(x)(3(-7)+8= -20
3x-21+8= -20
3x-13= -20
Move -13 to the other side. Sign changes from -13 to +13.
3x-13+13= -20+13
3x= -7
Divide by 3
3x/3= -7/3
x= -7/3 or in mixed number : -2 1/3
Answer : x= -7/3 or in mixed number : -2 1/3
Answer:
- leading coefficient: 2
- degree: 7
Step-by-step explanation:
The degree of a term with one variable is the exponent of the variable. The degrees of the terms (in the same order) are ...
6, 0, 7, 1
The highest-degree term is 2x^7. Its coefficient is the "leading" coefficient, because it appears first when the polynomial terms are written in decreasing order of their degree:
2x^7 -7x^6 -18x -4
The leading coefficient is 2; the degree is 7.

<em>Additional comment</em>
When a term has more than one variable, its degree is the sum of the exponents of the variables. The term xy, for example, is degree 2.
Answer:
The answer would be 10. Multiply 10 by 10 you'll get 100.
