Answer:
This is a educated guess, but x is 80 and y is 100.
Step-by-step explanation:
My logic here is that the triangles are the same because of all the congruent lines and stuff. But from there, you know that both the right and the left side are 40 degrees. You know the total degree of a triangle is 180 so 180 - 40 - 40 is 100. So the final angle is 100. If you look at x, its on the outside, but on a line. If you can imagine a circle, its half, so its a 180 degrees total. Then its 180 = x + 100. So x is 80. And then by that same logic its y = 100.
First seat: 14 candidates to seat
Second seat: 13 candidates to seat
Third seat : 12 candidates
4th seat: 11 candidates
5th seat: 10 candidates
6th seat: 9 candidates
Number of different variations: 14*13*12*11*10*9 = 2,162,160 different ways,
Observe that is 14P6 = 14! / (14-6)! = 14! / 8! = 14*13*12*11*10*9*8! / 8! =
= 14*13*12*11*10*9
Answer: 2,162,160
