Ex: x+5 = 10 is an open sentence because it is neither completely true or completely false (it all depends on the value of x)

Inequalities/551820: What is the solution of this inequality : -2(n+1) -3<1 1 solutions Answer 359944 by jim_thompson5910(28595)   on 2012-01-02 14:24:17 (Show Source): You can put this solution on YOUR website! Start with the given inequality. Distribute. Combine like terms on the left side. Add to both sides. Combine like terms on the right side. Divide both sides by to isolate . note: Remember, the inequality sign flips when we divide both sides by a negative number. Reduce. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Answer: So the solution is

Equations/551819: 2n2-3b,if n =3 and b= 1 1 solutions Answer 359943 by jim_thompson5910(28595)   on 2012-01-02 14:23:51 (Show Source): You can put this solution on YOUR website! 2n^2-3b 2(3)^2-3(1) 2(9)-3(1) 18-3 15 So 2n^2-3b = 15 when n=3 and b= 1

Probability-and-statistics/551818: How many ways can five women and two men can be seated on a chair if only three seats? 1 solutions Answer 359942 by jim_thompson5910(28595)   on 2012-01-02 14:22:48 (Show Source): You can put this solution on YOUR website! There are 5+2 = 7 people total and P(7,3) = (7!)/(7-3)! = (7!)/(4!) = 5040/24 = 210 ways to seat all of them in 3 seats (assuming order matters). If order doesn't matter, then there are C(7,3) = (P(7,3))/(3!) = 210/6 = 35 different ways to seat them.
