336

Step-by-step explanation:

Using the definition of nP_{r} = n ! / (n- r) !

where n ! = n(n - 1)(n - 2).... × 3 × 2 × 1

8P_{3}

= 8 ! / (8 - 3) !

First, subtract the height he will grow to to the height he is now.

132 - 90 = 42

Now divide this from 3.5.

42 / 3.5 = 12

nignag [31]

Answer:

  • Carl will catch up Flo at 4:00

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Given</u>

  • Flo reads one page every minute
  • Carl reads one page every 50 seconds
  • Carl starts 30 minutes late
  • Max number of pages = 500

Let x be the number of pages each reads when Carl catches up Flo

Then we have the time for Flo and Carl

<u>Flo: </u>

  • x pages after x minutes

<u>Carl: </u>

  • x pages after 30 + x*50/60 minutes

<u>The time is same:</u>

  • x = 30 + 50/60x
  • x = 30 + 5/6x
  • x - 5/6x = 30
  • 1/6x = 30
  • x = 6*30
  • x = 180

180 minutes = 3 hours

1:00 + 3 hours = 4:00
