sammy's bicycle and tricycles. clarence went to Sammy's and counted 37 sets of handlebars and 95 wheels. How many bicycles and t
Trava [24]

Answer:

16 bicycles and 21 tricycles

Step-by-step explanation:

Both bicycles and tricycles have 1 set of handlebars. Bicycles have 2 wheels while tricycles have 3.

Using this information, set up a system of equations, where b is the number of bicycles and t is the number of tricycles:

b + t = 37

2b + 3t = 95

Solve by elimination by multiplying the top equation by -2:

-2b - 2t = -74

2b + 3t = 95

t = 21

Then, plug in 21 as t into one of the equations:

b + t = 37

b + 21 = 37

b = 16

So, there are 16 bicycles and 21 tricycles

A 20-person fraternity is making their weekend plans around 5 different parties in IV. Each brother will attend exactly one of t
skad [1K]

Answer:

3876

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the following :

Fraternity members = 20

They are to attend 5 different parties in groups of 4

Meaning a group = 4 persons

Atleast one brother will attend exactly one of the parties. (the brothers are indistinguishable).

Then, exactly one brother at a party (20 - 1) = 19, since they are indistinguishable.

Group members are in 4's

19C4

From: nCr = n! /(n-r)! r!

19C4 = 19! / (19 - 4)! 4!

= 19! / 15! 4!

= (19 * 18 * 17 * 16) / (4 * 3 * 2)

= 93024 / 24

= 3876
