Let one of the numbers be x and the other be y.

The sum of the two numbers is 361:
⇒ x + y = 361

The difference between the two number is 173:
⇒x - y = 173

To solve this, we will make x the subject in one equation and substitute it into the other equation.

equation 1: x + y = 361
equation 2: x - y = 173

From equation 1:
x + y = 361
x = 361 - y 

Now that we make x the subject, we will substitute it into the equation 2:

x - y = 173
(361 - y) - y = 173
361 - y - y = 173
361 - 2y = 173
2y = 361 - 173
2y = 188
y = 94

Now that we know that y = 94, we substitute it into equation 1 to find the value of x.

x + y = 361
x + 94 = 361
x = 361 - 94
x = 267

-------------------------------------------------
The two numbers are 267 and 94.

Every day a student randomly chooses a sandwich for lunch from a pile of wrapped sandwiches. If there are six kinds of sandwiche
balu736 [363]

Answer:

279,936 ways

Step-by-step explanation:

Every day the student has to chose a sandwich from the pile of 6 sandwiches.  So this means the student has to make a choice from the 6 sandwiches for the 7 days. Since the order matters, this is a problem of permutations.

Daily the student has the option to chose from 6 sandwiches. So this means, for 7 days, he has to make a choice out of 6 options. Or in other words we can say, the student has to make selection from 6 objects 7 times.

So, the total number of ways to chose the sandwiches will be 6 x 6 x 6 x 6 x 6 x 6 x 6 = 6^{7}

Alternate Method:

Since the repetition can occur in this case, i.e. a sandwich chosen on one day can also be chosen on other day, the following formula of permutations ca be used:

Number of ways =  n^{r}

where n is the total number of choices available which is 6 in this case and r is the number of times the selection is to be made which 7 in this case. So,

The number of ways to chose a sandwich will be = 6^{7} = 279936 ways

Henri has $24,000 invested in stocks and bonds. The amount in stocks is $6,000 more than three times the amount in bonds. Call t
makvit [3.9K]

Answer:

The solve of that problem is that Hernry invested $18.000 in stocks and $6.000 in bonds.

Step-by-step explanation:

First, to explain you have to do a multiplication about 6 on three. Like three times more than bonds, the result is 18. Then you have to do a  subtraction on $24.000 less $18.000, and the result is $6.000, so six is the amount on bonds. And is three times less than stocks, like the questions ask.

Drag each expression to show whether it is equivalent to 6(4x−1), 24x+6, or (4⋅6x)+(4⋅2) somebody please help me i need to get t
faltersainse [42]

Answer:

6(4x-1) is equivalent to 24x-6 and (2*12x)-(2*3)

24x+6 is equivalent to 6(4x+1) and (6*4x)+(6*1)

(4*6x)+(4*2) is equivalent to 24x+8 and 4(6x+2)

Step-by-step explanation:

An equivalent expression is an expression which either simplified or factored is equal to it.

6(4x-1) is equivalent to 24x-6 and (2*12x)-(2*3)

24x+6 is equivalent to 6(4x+1) and (6*4x)+(6*1)

(4*6x)+(4*2) is equivalent to 24x+8 and 4(6x+2)

schepotkina [342]

Answer:

The Answer is b. 1.5Million

Step-by-step explanation:

Adult Population = 50 Million

Labor-Force Rate = 60%

Total Labor Force of Adult population = 50Million*60% = 30Million

Unemployment Rate = 5%

People Unemployment =

Total Labor force of Adult population * Unemployment rate

People Unemployment = 30Millon*5%

People Unemployment = 1.5Million
