Answer:

5! (5 factorial) or 120 ways

Step-by-step explanation:

You can arrange P different ways. R can be arranged only 4 different ways because Pwill be in one of the spots. Next, you can arrange "I" 3 different ways because P and R are already arranged in 2 spots, meaning you cant put "I" there. Next, S can be arranged in 2 different ways for the same reason. And lastly, M can only be arranged in 1 different way because the other spots are taken.

You can put it in any order. For example, M could be arranged 5 ways and P could be arranged in 1 way. You will still get 120 ways

Hopefully this helped. The explanation might be a bit confusing but I tried my best. I'm not good with explaining my solutions but I always try

What is the value of x

My name is Ann [436]

X=3

Explanation:

A straight line equals 180°, and they give you the one angle of 56°, so you know 56+ the other equation has to equal 180

56+4x+112=180
168+4x=180

Subtract 168 from both sides

4x=12

Divide 4 from both sides

X=3

You can check by filling it in.

56+4*3+112=

12+56+112=180
