There are 120 ways in which 5  riders and 5 horses can be arranged.

We have,

5 riders and 5 horses,

Now,

We know that,

Now,

Using the arrangement formula of Permutation,

i.e.

The total number of ways ^nN_r = \frac{n!}{(n-r)!},

So,

For n = 5,

And,

r = 5

As we have,

n = r,

So,

Now,

Using the above-mentioned formula of arrangement,

i.e.

The total number of ways ^nN_r = \frac{n!}{(n-r)!},

Now,

Substituting values,

We get,

^5N_5 = \frac{5!}{(5-5)!}

We get,

The total number of ways of arrangement = 5! = 5 × 4 × 3 × 2 × 1 = 120,

So,

There are 120 ways to arrange horses for riders.

Hence we can say that there are 120 ways in which 5  riders and 5 horses can be arranged.

Answer:

x = 3.2

Step-by-step explanation:

Since, intercepts made by parallel lines on the transversals are in proportion.

\therefore \frac{AB}{BC} =\frac{EF}{FG}... (1)

AB = BC.... (given)

\implies \frac{AB}{BC} = 1..... (2)

From equations (1) & (2)

1 =\frac{EF}{FG}

{FG}={EF}

Therefore,

7x - 9 = 2x + 7

7x - 2x = 9 + 7

5x = 16

x = 16/5

x = 3.2
