Answer:

The answer to your question is below

Step-by-step explanation:

Equation 1

                            $sweatshirt = 2 pair of shorts

                                    <u>  w = 2h</u>

Equation 2

$t-shirt = $pair of shorts  - $4

                                <u>      t = h - 4</u>

Equation 3

Total cost = 3 sweatshirts + 2 pairs of shorts + 5 t-shirts

<u>Total cost = 3w + 2h + 5t = 136 </u>

Answer: a system of three equations that represents the price of the clothing are

w = 2h

t = h - 4

3w + 5t + 2h = 136

Step-by-step explanation:

Let w represent the price of one sweatshirt.

Let t represent the price of one T-shirt.

Let h represent the price of one pair of shorts.

The price of a sweatshirt at a local shop is twice the price of a pair of shorts. This means that

w = 2h

The price of a T-shirt at the shop is $4 less than the price of a pair of shorts. This means that

t = h - 4

Brad purchased 3 sweatshirts, 2 pairs of shorts, and 5 T-shirts for a total of $136. This means that

3w + 5t + 2h = 136

In another state, all license plates consist of from four to six symbols chosen from the 26 letters of the alphabet together wit
fredd [130]
A)
First note that the plates can have between 4 and 6 symbols so we will need to find the number of plates with 4 symbols, 5 symbols and 6 symbols. We add these to get the total. In this part repetition of symbols is allowed. Since there are 26 + 10 =36 possible symbols we look at each position on the plate and think of how many choices there are. We multiply the number f choices using the counting principal since the choices are each independent -- one symbol does not affect another. There are 36 choices for the first symbol, 35 for the second and so on. The number of plates is:
4-symbols = (36)(36)(36)(36)=36^4
5 symbols = (36)^5
6 symbols = 36^6
So the total here is: 36^4+36^5+36^6

B) Here we do not repeat symbols so there are 36 choices for the first symbol but only 35 for the next and 34 for the one after and so on.
4-symbols = (36)(35)(34)(33)
5 symbols = (36)(35)(34)(33)(32)
6 symbols = (36)(35)(34)(33)(32)(31)
So the total here is: (36)(35)(34)(33)+(36)(35)(34)(33)(32)+(36)(35)(34)(33)(32)(31)

c)
In order for there to be a repeated symbol we have 36 choices for the first symbol, 36 for the next and so on. However, for the last symbol we have to pick from one of the ones already selected so there are 3, 4 or 5 choices respectively.
4-symbols = (36)(36)(36)(3)
5 symbols = (36)(36)(36)(36)(4)
6 symbols = (36)(36)(36)(36)(36)(5)
So the total here is: (36^3)(3)+(36^4)(4)+(36^5)(5)

D)
The probability is given by (the number of plates with at least one repeated symbol)/(the total number of plates if repetitions are allowed) = (the answer to c) / (the answer to a)
