There are 72 tokens with Riley and 63 tokens with Erik

<em><u>Solution:</u></em>

Riley and Erik have earned a total of 135 tokens to buy items in the school store

Total number of tokens = 135

The ratio of the number of tokens that Riley had to the number of tokens that Erik has is 8 to 7

Number of tokens with Riley : Number of tokens with Erik = 8 : 7

Let the number of tokens with Riley be 8x

Let the number of tokens with Erik be 7x

Since, Total number of tokens = 135

number of tokens with Riley + number of tokens with Erik = 135

8x + 7x = 135

15x = 135

x = 9

Therefore,

Number of tokens with Riley = 8x = 8(9) = 72

Number of tokens with Erik = 7x = 7(9) = 63

Thus there are 72 tokens with Riley and 63 tokens with Erik

Using an ordered alphabet of 26 letters, how many ways are there to choose a set of six letters such that no two letters in the
mestny [16]
To find our solution, we can start off by creating a string of 27 boxes, all followed by the letters of the alphabet. Underneath the boxes, we can place 6 pairs of boxes and 15 empty boxes.The stars represent the six letters we pick. The empty boxes to the left of the stars provide the "padding" needed to ensure that no two adjacent letters are chosen. We can create this - 
\binom {21} {6}= \frac{21*20*19*18*17*16}{6*5*4*3*2*1} =21*19*17*8=54264
Thus, the answer is that there are \boxed{54264} ways to choose a set of six letters such that no two letters in the set are adjacent in the alphabet. Hope this helped and have a phenomenal New Year! <em>2018</em>
