Answer:

The next number is $4$

Step-by-step explanation:

we have

$256, 196, 144, 100, 64, 36, 16,...x$

we know that

$256-196=60$

$196-144=52=60-8$

$144-100=44=52-8$

$100-64=36=44-8$

$64-36=28=36-8$

$36-16=20=28-8$

therefore

The next number is equal to

$16-x=20-8$ ------> solve for x

$16-x=12$

$x=16-12=4$

Marcus, Shaun, and Tristan each invested into new business. They invested 1 point

Schach [20]

Shaun invested $176,250 into the new business.

Marcus invested half of the $940,000 so the amount that Shaun and Tristan invested is:

= 940,000 / 2

= $470,000

Shaun and Tristan invested in the ratio 3:5.

The amount that Shaun invested is:

= (Ratio of Shaun / Sum of the ratios) x Amount both invested

= (3 / (3 + 5 )) x 470,000

= 3/8 x 470,000

= $176,250

In conclusion, Shaun must have invested $176,250 into the business.

Rashid [163]

Answer:

The number of ways to select 37 people from 101 is, 5,397,234,129,638,871,133,346,507,775.

Step-by-step explanation:

In mathematics, the procedure to select k items from n distinct items, without replacement, is known as combinations.

The formula to compute the combinations of k items from n is given by the formula:

${n\choose k}=\frac{n!}{k!\cdot (n-k)!}$

Compute the number of ways to select 37 people from 101 as follows:

${101\choose 37}=\frac{101!}{37!\cdot (101-37)!}$

$=\frac{101!}{37!\times 64!}\\\\=\frac{101\times 100\times 99\times....64!}{37!\times 64!}\\\\=5397234129638871133346507775$

Thus, the number of ways to select 37 people from 101 is, 5,397,234,129,638,871,133,346,507,775.
