Answer:

33 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

Trip to airport:

distance = d1

speed = s1 = 55 mph

time = t1

Trip home:

distance = d2

speed = s2 = 45 mph

time = t2

We are told the same route was used for both trips, so

d1 = d2

The total time was 1 hr 20 min = 1 hr + 20/60 hr = 4/3 hr.

t1 + t2 = 4/3

t2 = 4/3 - t1

speed = distance/time

distance = speed * time

d1 = s1 * t1

d2 = s2 * t2

d1 = d2, so

s1 * t1 = s2 * t2

t2 = 4/3 - t1; s1 = 55; s2 = 45

55 * t1 = 45(4/3 - t1)

55t1 = 60 - 45t1

100t1 = 60

t1 = 0.6

The time to get the the airport was 0.6 hr. Now we find the distance.

d1 = s1 * t1

d1 = 55 * 0.6

d1 = 33

The distance is 33 miles.

If n is a positive integer, how many 5-tuples of integers from 1 through n can be formed in which the elements of the 5-tuple ar

erma4kov [3.2K]

Answer:

$\frac{(n+4)*(n+3)*(n+2)*(n+1)*n}{120}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

5 tuples implies that:

$n = 5$

$(h,i,j,k,m)$ implies that:

$r = 5$

Required

How many 5-tuples of integers $(h, i, j, k,m)$ are there such that $n\ge h\ge i\ge j\ge k\ge m\ge 1$

From the question, the order of the integers h, i, j, k and m does not matter. This implies that, we make use of combination to solve this problem.

Also considering that repetition is allowed: This implies that, a number can be repeated in more than 1 location

So, there are n + 4 items to make selection from

The selection becomes:

$^{n}C_r => ^{n + 4}C_5$

$^{n + 4}C_5 = \frac{(n+4)!}{(n+4-5)!5!}$

$^{n + 4}C_5 = \frac{(n+4)!}{(n-1)!5!}$

Expand the numerator

$^{n + 4}C_5 = \frac{(n+4)!(n+3)*(n+2)*(n+1)*n*(n-1)!}{(n-1)!5!}$

$^{n + 4}C_5 = \frac{(n+4)*(n+3)*(n+2)*(n+1)*n}{5!}$

$^{n + 4}C_5 = \frac{(n+4)*(n+3)*(n+2)*(n+1)*n}{5*4*3*2*1}$

$^{n + 4}C_5 = \frac{(n+4)*(n+3)*(n+2)*(n+1)*n}{120}$
