Answer:

Probability p( selecting 8 cities alphabetically) = 2.48×10^-5

Step-by-step explanation:

Number of possible ways of choosing 8 cities=Permutation P(n,k) = n!/(n-k)!

P(8,8)= 8!/(8-8)! = 8! = 40,320

Probability (selecting 8 cities alphabetically) = 1/40320 = 2.48×10^-5

Answer:

<em>The answer is 0.00002480</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question stated let us recall the following statement.

The number of cities the tourist wants to visit is =8

Now,

If the route is selected randomly, what is the probability that the cities she visits are in alphabetical order.

Therefore,

The probability that she visits the cities in alphabetical order = 1/8!

There are 8! = 40320 ways in which these cities can be visited

P(Visiting in alphabetical order) = 1/40320 = 0.00002480

Riley is currently 4 times as old as her brother. If Riley was 11 years old 5 years ago, how old is Riley's brother now?
Sonbull [250]
Riley's age = r
Riley's brother's age = r/4

If Riley was 11 five years ago, Riley is currently 11 + 5 years old, or 16 years old.

Now we just need to use r/4 to find Riley's brother's age:

16 /4 = 4

Riley's brother is 4 years old.

Hope this helps!
