21 * (-1) = -21
21 + (-1) = 20
There's no equation to solve, until you tell us
what that expression is equal to.
Answer:
8 points: unlikely
16 points: impossible
more than 0 points: likely
Step-by-step explanation:
Let's call the stamps A, B, and C. They can each be used only once. I assume all 3 must be used in each possible arrangement.
There are two ways to solve this. We can list each possible arrangement of stamps, or we can plug in the numbers to a formula.
Let's find all possible arrangements first. We can easily start spouting out possible arrangements of the 3 stamps, but to make sure we find them all, let's go in alphabetical order. First, let's look at the arrangements that start with A:
ABC
ACB
There are no other ways to arrange 3 stamps with the first stamp being A. Let's look at the ways to arrange them starting with B:
BAC
BCA
Try finding the arrangements that start with C:
C_ _
C_ _
Or we can try a little formula; y×(y-1)×(y-2)×(y-3)...until the (y-x) = 1 where y=the number of items.
In this case there are 3 stamps, so y=3, and the formula looks like this: 3×(3-1)×(3-2).
Confused? Let me explain why it works.
There are 3 possibilities for the first stamp: A, B, or C.
There are 2 possibilities for the second space: The two stamps that are not in the first space.
There is 1 possibility for the third space: the stamp not used in the first or second space.
So the number of possibilities, in this case, is 3×2×1.
We can see that the number of ways that 3 stamps can be attached is the same regardless of method used.
Answer:
Hi there!
The answer to this question is:
Standard: y= x- (cube root) z
the leading coefficient: 1
Step-by-step explanation:
when identifying a polynomial you always need to know the standard equation, and leading coefficient.
-you first need to know what "y" so you move y to the other side by adding it on both sides
-then you need to get y by itself and cube root it on both sides resulting in x^3 becoming x and z becoming (cube root) z
