Step One
Figure out the cost for 1 cartridge
Cost = 90
<u>Refund = 8 Subtract</u>
Net cost = 82
Step Two
Find the cost for 14
14 * 82 = 1148 <<<<<< Cost for 14
There are 14 possibilities for first place.
There are 13 possibilities for second place, since a dog can't get both first and second place.
There are 12 possibilities for third place, since a dog can't get both first, second, and third place.
There are 11 possibilities for fourth place, since a dog can't get both first, second, third, and fourth place.
Multiply them together and get 24024 possibilities.
Hope this helps!
They could miss each other 30 different ways. I solved this by drawing it out six different stores and making Alice and Betsy go to each one may different times. Example photo included for how I got the first five. Then I did the same thing, but switch A and B, counted that towards the total and continued the is drawing until all the possibilities were found.
In the first case we'd subtract 1 from both sides, obtaining |x-1|<14.
In the second case we'd also subtract 1 from both sides, and would obtain
|x-1|>14.
What would the graphs look like?
In the first case, the graph would be on the x-axis with "center" at x=1. From this center count 14 units to the right, and then place a circle around that location (which would be at x=15). Next, count 14 units to the left of this center, and place a circle around that location (which would be -13). Draw a line segment connecting the two circles. Notice that all of the solutions are between -13 and +15, not including these endpoints.
In the second case, x has to be greater than 15 or less than -13. Draw an arrow from x=1 to the left, and then draw a separate arrow from 15 to the right. None of the values in between are solutions.
Answer:
m = -2 and b = -1/3
m = -2 and b = -2/3.
Step-by-step explanation:
y = -2x - 1/3
y = -2x - 2/3
This system has no solutions because y cannot be 2 different values at once.
