Answer:

only three shapes are mentioned.

But anyhow, 4 shapes allow the following reasoning...

you can start lining up with any of the for shapes, so you have 4 possibilities, for the second position you have 3 possibilities, for the third 2 and for the last only 1.

so 4*3*2*1= 24 possible ways

but with the added rule to keep the circle and the square apart, we have to reduce the number.

by the same step-by-step reasoning we get

4 possibilities for the 1st item

only 2 possibilities for the 2nd item

(if 1st is square or circle, the other one's not an option, if it's not we have to choose one of them to not place them both at point 3 and 4)

only 1 choice for the 3rd item

(reasoning as above, if 2nd is square or circle, we have to the only other, if it isn't, we can put it here at 3rd position)

plus scenarios where either square or circle are on 1st point, the other's on 4th.

I guess that makes 14 possible arrangements

saveliy_v [14]

Answer:

The speed of the biker is 15

Step-by-step explanation:

First, you call the speed of the walker x, and the speed of the biker 2.5x.

Then you know that speed times time equals distance, so you set up and equation. You do x times 2, which is 2x, and then 2.5x times 2, which is 5x. Then, since the distance between them is 18 miles, the equation would be 5x-2x=18. You would get 3x=18, and x is 6. So 6 is the speed of the walker, and 6 times 2.5 = 15, so the speed of the biker is 15.

The future worth of a certain item or money deposited at a certain percentage is obtained by the equation,

   F = P x (1 + i)^n

F is the future worth, P is present worth, i is the percentage, and n is the number of years.

   n = 2013 - 1938
   n = 75

Substituting the known values,

    300,000 = 100 x (1 + i)^75

The value of i from the equation is 0.1126.

The answer to this item is 11.26%.
