Boy record = 25 feet 8 inches
Girl record = 19 feet 19 inches
Boy record / Girl record = 25 feet 8 inches / 19 feet 19 inches
Change the feet into inches
1 feet = 12 inches
25 feet = 25* 12 = 300 inches + 8 inches = 308 inches

19 feet = 19 * 12= 228 inches + 19 inches = 247 inches
Boy record / Girl record = 308 inches / 247 inches
Boy record / Girl record = 1.246 inches
Boy record = 1.246 Girl record
So
it is 1.246 times greater than girls record.

Find the equation of the line parallel to the line y = 4x – 2 that passes through the point (1, 5).
Lesechka [4]

Answer:

4x-y+1=0

Step-by-step explanation:

here,given equation of a line id

4x-y-2=0.. eqn(i)

equation of any line parallel to line (i) is

4x-y+k=0...eqn(ii)

since, the line(ii) passes through (1,5)[replacing x=1 and y=5 in eqn(ii), we get]

4*1-5+k=0

or, 4-5+k=0

or,-1+k=0

•°•k=1

substituting the value of k=1 in eqn(ii),

4x-y+1=0 is the required equation of the line.

How many ways can six of the letters of the word ALGORITHM be selected 8. How many ways can the letters of the word ALGORITHM be
SCORPION-xisa [38]
<h2>Answer with explanation:</h2>

The number of letters in word "ALGORITHM" = 9

The number of combinations to select r things from n things is given by :-

C(n,r)=\dfrac{n!}{r!(n-r)!}

Now, the number of combinations to select 6 letters from 9 letters will be :-

C(9,8)=\dfrac{9!}{6!(9-6)!}=\dfrac{9\times8\times7\times6!}{6!\times3!}=84

Thus , the number of ways can six of the letters of the word ALGORITHM=84

The number of ways to arrange n things in a row :n!

So, the number of ways can the letters of the word ALGORITHM be arranged in a be seated together in the row :-

9!=362880

If GOR comes together, then we consider it as one letter,  then the total number of letters will be = 1+6=7

Number of ways to arrange 9 letters if "GOR" comes together :-

7!=5040

Thus, the number of ways to arrange 9 letters if "GOR" comes together=5040
