<h3>Answer: 29,030,400</h3>

==============================================================

Explanation:

Let's say the mother will temporarily take the place of all the sisters. Wherever the mother sits will represent the block of girls.

Taking out the 6 sisters and replacing them with the mother leads to 7+1 = 8 people in a line.

There are 8! = 8*7*6*5*4*3*2*1 = 40,320 different ways to arrange 8 people.

----------

Again, the mother's position is where the sisters block will go. So let's say the mother was in seat #2. This would mean one brother would take seat #1, and all of the sisters would take the next six seats, until we reach seat #7 is when another brother would take the next seat.

Within any given permutation (the 40320 mentioned), there are 6! = 6*5*4*3*2*1 = 720 different ways to arrange just the girls in that girls block/group.

All together, there are 40320*720 = 29,030,400 different ways to arrange the 13 siblings where all the girls are seated together.

How in the world do I answer this problem??​
galben [10]

Answer:

22

Step-by-step explanation:

ST is y and SU is 2y-4.

Note that SU = ST + TU = y + 18

So we have 2y - 4 = y + 18

2y - 4 = y + 18

2y      = y + 22

y        = 22

So ST is 22.
