Answer:

1/2

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the expression 3b²-c, and we want to evaluate it if b is 1/2 and c is 1/4.

Because b and c are given values, we can substitute them into the expression as so:

Replace b with 1/2 in the expression.

3(1/2)²-c

Now replace c with 1/4 in the expression.

3(1/2)²-1/4

Now to solve this, we need to use the order of operations, which is usually known as PEMDAS (parentheses, exponents, multiplication, division, addition, subtraction) in the United States, although other countries have different abbreviations.

Regardless, the order of operations tells us that we should start with what is inside parentheses (i.e. if we need to do anything, like multiplying or dividing any numbers that are inside parentheses).

In this case, we don't have anything. So, we should go next to exponents, and we do have an exponent here (1/2 is raised to the second power).

So let's evaluate that.

Raise 1/2 to the second power (multiply it by itself).

1/2 * 1/2 = 1/4

We can substitute (1/2)² with 1/4:

3(1/4) - 1/4

Next, we should take care of any multiplication / division, making sure that we should work left to right

There is one multiplication thing to do: the 3(1/4), which will be 3/4

Replace 3(1/4) with 3/4.

3/4 - 1/4

Now, we can subtract 1/4 from 3/4, as the final two things in PEMDAS are addition and subtraction (A and S). Note that even though while addition is written first, we should always be working left to right, so for example if we had 3 - 4 + 6, we should do 3 - 4 first, THEN add 6 to the result of that. The same is true for multiplication and division.  

3/4 - 1/4 = 2/4 = <u>1/2 </u>

A group contains n men and n women. how many ways are there to arrange these people in a row if the men and women alternate?
Kobotan [32]

A group contains n men and n women. 2n! number of ways are there to arrange these people in a row if the men and women alternate. Arrangement is known as permutation.

A permutation of a set in mathematics is, broadly speaking, the rearrangement of its elements if the set already has an ordered structure into a sequence or linear order. The act or procedure of altering the linear order of an ordered set is referred to as a "permutation."

When the order of the arrangements counts, a permutation is a mathematical technique that establishes the total number of alternative arrangements in a collection. Choosing only a few items from a collection of options in a specific sequence is a common task in arithmetic problems.
