Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

1. First, put together the information we have. Total = 121. Emily has 40% more than Carl, and Carl has 60% more than Antony.

2. Next, set each person as a variable. Antony = x. Carl = 1.6x. Emily = 1.4 times 1.6x.

3. Next, form an equation using these variables.

    x + 1.6x + (1.4 x 1.6x) = 121

    x + 1.6x + 2.24x = 121

    4.84x = 121

    x = 25

4. Finally, plug in x to our previous variables in step #2 to find the number of stamps Emily and Carl have.

<u>Antony</u>: x = 25 stamps

<u>Carl:</u> 1.6x = 40 stamps

<u>Emily</u>: 1.4 times 1.6x = 56 stamps

By the way, is this for RSM? If so, I am working on that problem right now and I searched up the solution but couldn't find it, so I stumbled upon this. I hope this helped!

In how many unique ways can the seven letters in the word MINIMUM be arranged, if all the letters are used each time
slega [8]

The number of unique ways or permuations to arrange the seven letters in MINIMUM is all the letters are used each time is 420.

According to the given question.

We have a word MINIMUM.

Here, there are 7 letters in "MINIMUM" .

Now, in Minimum the number of letters which are repeated and which are not.

M = 3 times

I = 2 times

N = 1 time

U = 1 time

As, we all know if there is no repetitions in a word which is made of n letters, then we can arrange it by n! ways.

But if there is repetition, we use formula

\frac{n!}{n_{1}! n_{2}!..n_{k}!  }

where, n = n_{1} +n_{2} +n_{3} ...+n_{k}

n_{1} is objects of one type

n_{2} is the objects of two types

n_{k} is the objects of k types

Thereofore, the number of unique ways or permuations to arrange the seven letters in MINIMUM is all the letters are used each time

= 7!/ 3!2!

= 7(6)(5)(4)(3!)/3!(2)(1)

= 7(3)(5)(4)

= 420

Hence, the number of unique ways or permuations to arrange the seven letters in MINIMUM is all the letters are used each time is 420.

Find the missing side length of the right triangle. show work.
motikmotik

Answer:

6.32

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the side length on a right angled triangle we follow The Pythagorean Theorem:

{a}^{2}  +  {b}^{2}  =  {c}^{2}

c being the hypothesis (longest side: the hypotenuse is always opposite the right angle)

so..

{6}^{2}  +   {2}^{2}  =  {x}^{2}  \\ 36 + 4 =  {x}^{2}  \\ 40 =  {x}^{2} \\  \sqrt{40}   =  \sqrt{ {x}^{2} } \\

6.32 = x
