You can make an equation with this information using a variable for the number of days and solve for that variable. Here we can use d to represent days.

Ryan can build 4 desks in a day, so you could express his production as 4d.

Larry can build 4 desks in 2 days, so you could say he makes 2 desks in 1 day, expressed as 2d.

If Larry starts work one day before Ryan, he's made an extra 2 desks. To get 32 desks, you need to add together those 2 desks Larry made, however many desks Larry can make, and however many desks Ryan can make:

2 + 4d + 2d = 32.

Then just simplify and solve:

6d = 30
d = 5.

It'll take 5 days for them to make 32 desks. Hope this helps! Please rate this answer as brainliest if you liked it!! thank you!!!

There are 20! number of ways for everyone to do this so that at the end of the move, each seat is taken by exactly one person.

People are seated in a 2 by 10 rectangle grid. All 20 persons stand up from their seats and relocate to an orthogonally neighboring one upon the blowing of a whistle.

Now, we have to find the number of possible ways in which each seat is taken up by exactly one person after the move.

As the number of people is 20 and 20 seats are to filled exactly once.

So, the number of ways = 20!
