Answer:
There are 165 ways to distribute the blackboards between the schools. If at least 1 blackboard goes to each school, then we only have 35 ways.
Step-by-step explanation:
Essentially, this is a problem of balls and sticks. The 8 identical blackboards can be represented as 8 balls, and you assign them to each school by using 3 sticks. Basically each school receives an amount of blackboards equivalent to the amount of balls between 2 sticks: The first school gets all the balls before the first stick, the second school gets all the balls between stick 1 and stick 2, the third school gets the balls between sticks 2 and 3 and the last school gets all remaining balls.
The problem reduces to take 11 consecutive spots which we will use to localize the balls and the sticks and select 3 places to put the sticks. The amount of ways to do this is As a result, we have 165 ways to distribute the blackboards.
If each school needs at least 1 blackboard you can give 1 blackbooard to each of them first and distribute the remaining 4 the same way we did before. This time there will be 4 balls and 3 sticks, so we have to put 3 sticks in 7 spaces (if a school takes what it is between 2 sticks that doesnt have balls between, then that school only gets the first blackboard we assigned to it previously). The amount of ways to localize the sticks is . Thus, there are only 35 ways to distribute the blackboards in this case.
The question is missing the image given to go along with it, corresponding to the map being created. The image is attached to this answer.
The side angle side (SAS) similarity theorem states that two triangles with congruent angles and sides with identical ratios then the two triangles are similar. We have various points on the map, Home (H), Park (P), Friends house (F) and Grocery store (G).
In this example, we know the angle at the point Home on the map, is shared between the two triangles. If these two triangles are similar, then the ratio of the distances HF/HG = HP/HB. We know all of these values except for the HB which is the distance from home to the bus stop. But if these triangles are similar, we can solve for that distance.
15/9 = 10/HB
HB = 90/15
HB = 6 blocks.
To determine if the triangles are similar we need to know the distance from home to the bus stop, and if these are indeed similar, that distance must be 6 blocks.
