<u>Ashely have </u><u>56 ways</u><u> to choose from</u>

This question can be solved using a system in mathematics called Permutation and it's in a topic of mathematics called combinatorics.

<h3 /><h3>Permutation</h3>

This is the process of arranging a particular set of data in different ways.

Since Ashely is choosing 3 desserts out of 8 in no specific ways

P=\frac{n!}{(n-r)!}

Where n = total number of ways available

r = total numbers that would be selected.

Data given

  • n = 8
  • r = 3

Let's substitute these values into the equation.

P=\frac{8!}{(8-3)!3!} \\P=\frac{8*7*6*5*4*3*2*1}{5*4*3*2*1*3*2*1}\\P=56

From the calculation above, Ashley have 56 ways in which can choose 3 dessert from an 8 choice.

The following graph shows the cost c, in dollars, of p pounds of strawberries at a local grocery store.
lorasvet [3.4K]

Answer:

A. The ordered pair (5, 3.5) represents 5 lbs. of strawberries cost $3.50.

B. The cost per pound of strawberries is shown at (1, 0.7).

C. The relationship shown in the graph is a direct variation because as the pounds of strawberries increase, the cost also increases.

Explanation:

A. The coordinate is in (x,y). The x-axis represents the pound of strawberries and the y-axis represents the cost of the strawberries.

B. The cost for one pound of strawberries can be calculated to find the exact value of y (cost) when x is 1. The graph shows 5 lbs. of strawberries cost $3.50 so divide $3.50 by 5 lbs. to find the cost per pound of strawberries. 3.5 ÷ 5 = 0.7. On the graph, the cost for one pound of strawberries is at (1, 0.7)

C. A direct variation in a graph is shown when both x and y increase or decrease together. In this case, as the pounds of strawberries increase, the cost of the strawberries also increases.

140 tickets sold at the door

Step by Step Explanation:

x = tickets sold in advance
y = tickets sold at the door

We use the formula ax+by=c and a+b=c

x + y = 514
17x + 20y = 9158

y = 514 - x
17x + 20(514 - x)
17x + 10,280 - 20x = 9,158
-3x + 10,280 = 9,158
-3x = -11222
x = 374

This is for tickets sold in advance so we need to find y

374 + y = 514
y = 140

140 tickets were sold at the door
