Daley went to the grocery store to buy berries. Blueberries cost $1.50 a pound and strawberries cost $2.25 a pound. Daley spent

$10.50 on fruit. The equation he wrote to represent the scenario is 1.5b + 2.25s = 10.5. His solution is: 1. Subtract 2.25s: 1.5b = 10.5 − 2.25s 2. Divide by 1.5: 1.5b 1.5 = 10.5 − 2.25s 1.5 3. Distribute 1.5: b = 7 − 1.5s Daley wrote an equivalent equation to determine how many pounds of blueberries he could buy. Analyze Daley’s work. Did he make an error? Yes. In step 1, he had to subtract 1.5b from both sides. Yes. In step 2, he had to multiply 1.5 to both sides. Yes. In step 3, he can only multiply the 1.5 and 12.5 together. No. He correctly solved for b.

What is m∠S? Enter your answer in the box. ° An isosceles triangle with vertices labeled R, S, and T. Side R T is the base. Side
yulyashka [42]

Answer:

m<S = 45°

Step-by-step explanation:

The sum of the measures of the angles of a triangle equals 180 deg.

m<R + m<S + m<T = 180

3x + 2x + 3x = 180

8x = 180

x = 22.5

m<S = 2x = 2(22.5) = 45

A group of campers is going to occupy 3 campsites at a campground. There are 17 campsites from which to choose. In how many ways
Alexeev081 [22]

Answer:

Campsites be chosen in 680 ways.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Number of  campsites= 17

Number of campsites that are to be occupied=3

To Find:

Number of ways can the campsites be chosen=?

Solution:

Combination:

In mathematics, a combination is a way of selecting items from a collection where the order of selection does not matter. Suppose we have a set of three numbers P, Q and R. Then in how many ways we can select two numbers from each set, is defined by combination.

nCr = n(n - 1)(n - 2) ... (n - r + 1)/r! = n! / r!(n - r)!

No of ways in which campsites can be chosen= \frac{17!}{3!(17-3)!}17C3

=>\frac{17!}{3!(14!)}

=>\frac{15\times16\times17}{3\times 2\times 1}

=>\frac{4080}{6}

=>680
