Answer:
- digits used once: 12
- repeated digits: 128
Step-by-step explanation:
In order for a number to be divisible by 4, its last two digits must be divisible by 4. This will be the case if either of these conditions holds:
- the ones digit is an even multiple of 2, and the tens digit is even
- the ones digit is an odd multiple of 2, and the tens digit is odd.
We must count the ways these conditions can be met with the given digits.

Since we only have even numbers to work with, the ones digit must be an even multiple of 2: 4 or 8. (The tens digit cannot be odd.) The digits 4 and 8 comprise half of the available digits, so half of all possible numbers made from these digits will be divisible by 4.
<h3>digits used once</h3>
If the numbers must use each digit exactly once, there will be 4! = 24 of them. 24/2 = 12 of these 4-digit numbers will be divisible by 4.
<h3>repeated digits</h3>
Each of the four digits can have any of four values, so there will be 4^4 = 256 possible 4-digit numbers. Of these, 256/2 = 128 will be divisible by 4.
Answer:B.
Step-by-step explanation: I took the same class
Let x be the number of racing bikes, and let y be the number of mountain bikes.
1) 140x + 110y = 26150
2) 180x + 120y = 31800
Solve for one of the variables and plug that in to the other equation:
From equation 1: 140x = 26150 - 110y
x = (26150-110y)/140
Plug this into equation 2:
180((26150-110y)/140) = 31800
Solve for y, and find that y = 85 (the number of mountain bikes).
Plug that y into either equation to find x:
140x + 110(85) = 26150
x = 120 (the number of racing bikes).
So the answer is: 120 racing bikes and 85 mountain bikes.
