A math teacher randomly assigns seats in the classroom to students each quarter. Each student randomly chooses their row number

out of a hat. In the classroom, there are 4 desks in each row and 27 students in your class. What is the probability that you and your 3 friends will get to sit together in the same row?

Using the combination formula, it is found that the probability that you and your 3 friends will get to sit together in the same row is given by:

p = \frac{1}{17550}.

We do not consider the order, hence the <em>combination formula</em> is used to solve this question.

<h3>What is the combination formula?</h3>

C_{n,x} is the number of different combinations of x objects from a set of n elements, given by:

C_{n,x} = \frac{n!}{x!(n-x)!}

4 students will be taken from a set of 27, hence the number of ways they can sit is given by:

C_{27,4} = \frac{27!}{4!23!} = 17550

Only one outcome is desired, hence the probability is given by:

p = \frac{1}{17550}.

Identify any extraneous solution. See above pic
Sav [38]

Answer:

There are no extraneous solutions

Reasoning:

An extraneous solution is a solution that isn't valid, it might be imaginary like the square root of a negative number.

first we want to isolate z:

1+sqrt(z)=sqrt(z+5)

^2 all      ^2 all

(1+sqrt(z))(1+sqrt(z))=z+5

expand

1+2sqrt(z)+z=z+5

-1              -z  -z -1

2sqrt(z)=4

/2           /2

sqrt(z)=2

^2 all    ^2 all

z=4

Since there is one solution and it is a real number, there are no extraneous solutions.
