Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
There are 14 chairs and 8 people to be seated. But among the 8. three will be seated together:
So 5 people and (3) could be considered as 6 entities:
Since the order matters, we have to use permutation:
¹⁴P₆ = (14!)/(14-6)! = 2,162,160, But the family composed of 3 people can permute among them in 3! ways or 6 ways. So the total number of permutation will be ¹⁴P₆ x 3!
2,162,160 x 6 = 12,972,960 ways.
Another way to solve this problem is as follow:
5 + (3) people are considered (for the time being) as 6 entities:
The 1st has a choice among 14 ways
The 2nd has a choice among 13 ways
The 3rd has a choice among 12 ways
The 4th has a choice among 11 ways
The 5th has a choice among 10 ways
The 6th has a choice among 9ways
So far there are 14x13x12x11x10x9 = 2,162,160 ways
But the 3 (that formed one group) could seat among themselves in 3!
or 6 ways:
Total number of permutation = 2,162,160 x 6 = 12,972,960
Answer:
<u></u>
- <u>She should aim 6 feet down the wall</u>
Explanation:
The diagram attached sketches the situtation.
Since the angle with which the ball hits the wall is the same with which it bounces, angle β is the same for the two shown triangles.
Then, since both are right triangles, then all the angles are congruent and the triangles are similar. Hence, you can equal the ratios of the sides, to make an equation:
You have other equation:
Substitute
- 2y + y = 18
- 3y = 18
- y = 18/3
- y = 6 ← this is the distance down the wall where the ball should hit
Then, she should aim 6 feet down the wall.
Answer:
(x - 2)^2 + (y - 2)^2 = 3
Step-by-step explanation:
The centre point of the circle is the value for x and y
And the radius is the distance from the centre to the circumference.
