Answer:

Total number of ways to distribute the prize = 2187

3^{7}= 2187

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Number of prizes = 7

Number of peoples = 3

We need to find the total number of ways to distribute the prize.

Solution:

From the above statement, 7 prizes are to be distributed between 3 people, wherein each person gets at least one prize.

Each prize is to be distributed among three persons. When the first prize is to be awarded, one of the three is chosen to win the prize. When the second prize is to be awarded, there are again three choices.

So, total number of distribution of the prizes is given as:

3\times 3 \times 3\times 3\times 3\times 3\times 3=3^{7}

3^{7}= 2187

Therefore, total number of ways to distribute the prizes = 2187

Jennifer is saving money to buy a bike. The bike costs $246. She has $138 saved, and each week she adds $18 to her savings.
Brrunno [24]

Answer: 8 weeks

explanation: 125 + 15x = 245

You then have to subtract 125 from both sides so we can isolate our variable which will give us 15x = 120 . Divide 15 from both sides : 15x/15 = 120/15 which will give us x = 8.
