Answer: 5 valid arrangements

Step-by-step explanation:

This depends on whether the boys or girls swapping places are considered unique solutions.  I'm going to assume that is no, because there would be an unrealistic amount of solutions if it is true.

Assuming G = girl and B = boy, these are the possible arrangements.

(I will bold the valid solutions).

GGBBBB

GBGBBB

GBBGBB

GBBBGB

GBBBBG

BGGBBB

BGBGBB

BGBBGB

BGBBBG

BBGGBB

BBGBBG

BBBGGB

BBBBGG

Thus, there are 5 valid arrangements.

Hope it helps <3

Help finding the sum
Mamont248 [21]
It is asking you to find the sum of k^2 - 1 from k=1 to k=4. Since that is only 4 numbers, calculating the sum by hand wouldn’t be that bad.

(1^2 - 1) + (2^2 - 1) + (3^2 - 1) + (4^2 - 1) = 26

The easier way to find the sum is to use a few simple formulas.

When we have a term that is just a constant c, the formula is c*n.

When we have a variable k, the formula is k*n*(n+1)/2.

When we have a squared variable, the formula is k*n*(n+1)*(2n+1)/6.

In this case, we have a squared variable k^2 and a constant of -1.

So plug in n=4 to the formulas:

4*5*9/6 - 1*4 = 26

The answer is 26

Whats an equation that make x=31 ? like in other words give me an equation where it leads down to 31
MrRa [10]
Sure, that's easy! Here's one

5x + 7 = 162

If I wanted to solve this equation, I would break it down. I'd subtract the result (162) by 7

162 - 7 = 155.

From there I just divide that by 5!

155 / 5 = 31

There it is! Ultimate proof that x is in fact 31!

If my heart beats 2790 times every three quarters of an hour, what is your heart rate per minute?
kodGreya [7K]

Your heart rate is the number of times each minute that your heart beats, which is normally between 60 and 100 times per minute for adults. Your pulse is a way you can feel each time your heart beats. Measuring your heart rate helps you monitor your own health and know if you’re exercising at the right level to get the most benefits to your health.

Your pulse is your heart rate, or the number of times your heart beats in one minute. Pulse rates vary from person to person. Your pulse is lower when you are at rest and increases when you exercise (more oxygen-rich blood is needed by the body when you exercise). Knowing how to take your pulse can help you evaluate your exercise program.
