A stack of 9 different cards are shuffled and spread out face down. If 4 cards are tired face up, how many different 4-card comb

inations are possible?

Juliette [100K]3 years ago

7 0

Answer:

126.

Step-by-step explanation:

This is the number of combinations of 4 cards from 9 cards:

= 9C4

= 9! / 4! 5!.

A quick way of calculating this is

9*8*7*6

----------- = 9*2*7 = 126 combinations.

4*3*2*1

Solve differential equation:<br><br> y'''+4y''-16y'-64y=0 y(0)=0, y'(0)=26, y''(0)=-16

Ipatiy [6.2K]

Answer: The required solution of the given differential equation is

$y(x)=3e^{4x}-3e^{-4x}+2xe^{-4x}.$

Step-by-step explanation: We are given to solve the following differential equation :

$y^{\prime\prime\prime}+4y^{\prime\prime}-16y^\prime-64y=0~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~(i)\\\\\y(0)=0,~y^\prime(0)=26,~y^{\prim\prime}(0)=-16.$

Let, $y=e^{mx}$ be an auxiliary solution of equation (i).

Then, $y^\prime=me^{mx},~~y^{\prime\prime}=m^2e^{mx},~~y^{\prime\prime\prime}=m^3e^{mx}.$

Substituting these values in equation (i), we get

$m^3e^{mx}+4m^2e^{mx}-16me^{mx}-64e^{mx}=0\\\\\Rightarrow (m^3+4m^2-16m-64)e^{mx}=0\\\\\Rightarrow m^3+4m^2-16m-64=0,~~~~~~~~~[\textup{since }e^{mx}\neq 0]\\\\\Rightarrow m^2(m-4)+8m(m-4)+16(m-4)=0\\\\\Rightarrow (m-4)(m^2+8m+16)=0\\\\\Rightarrow (m-4)(m+4)^2=0\\\\\Rightarrow m-4=0,~~(m+4)^2=0\\\\\Rightarrow m=4,~m=-4,~-4.$

So, the general solution is given by

$y(x)=Ae^{4x}+Be^{-4x}+Cxe^{-4x}.$

Then, we have

$y^\prime=4Ae^{4x}-4Be^{-4x}-4Cxe^{-4x}+Ce^{-4x},\\\\y^{\prime\prime}=16Ae^{4x}+16Be^{4x}+16Cxe^{-4x}-4Ce^{-4x}-4Ce^{-4x}\\\\\Rightarrow y^{\prime\prime}=16Ae^{4x}+16Be^{4x}+16Cxe^{-4x}-8Ce^{-4x}.$

With the conditions given, we get

$y(0)=A+B+C\times 0\\\\\Rightarrow A+B=0\\\\\Rightarrow A=-B~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~(ii)$

$y^\prime(0)=4A-4B+C\\\\\Rightarrow 4A-4B+C=26\\\\\Rightarrow 4(A+A)+C=26~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~[\textup{using equation (i)}]\\\\\Rightarrow C=26-8A~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~(iii)$

and

$y^{\prime\prime}(0)=16A+16B-8C\\\\\Rightarrow 16A-16A-8C=-16~~~~~~~~~~~~[\textup{using equation (ii)}]\\\\\Rightarrow -8C=-16\\\\\Rightarrow C=2.$

From equation (iii), we get

$C=26-8A\\\\\Rightarrow 2=26-8A\\\\\Rightarrow 8A=24\\\\\Rightarrow A=3.$

From equation (ii), we get

$B=-3.$

Therefore, the required solution of the given differential equation is

$y(x)=3e^{4x}-3e^{-4x}+2xe^{-4x}.$

The sum of two numbers is -9. The difference of the two numbers is -41. What are the two numbers?

Nataly [62]

Answer:

the two numbers are 16 and -25

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the two numbers be x and y

x+y=-9

x-y=-41

By substitution

y=-9-x

x-(-9-x)=-41

x+9+x=-41

2x=-41-9

2x=-50

x=-25

y=-9-(-25)

y=16
