Let's call the stamps A, B, and C. They can each be used only once. I assume all 3 must be used in each possible arrangement.
There are two ways to solve this. We can list each possible arrangement of stamps, or we can plug in the numbers to a formula.
Let's find all possible arrangements first. We can easily start spouting out possible arrangements of the 3 stamps, but to make sure we find them all, let's go in alphabetical order. First, let's look at the arrangements that start with A:
ABC
ACB
There are no other ways to arrange 3 stamps with the first stamp being A. Let's look at the ways to arrange them starting with B:
BAC
BCA
Try finding the arrangements that start with C:
C_ _
C_ _
Or we can try a little formula; y×(y-1)×(y-2)×(y-3)...until the (y-x) = 1 where y=the number of items.
In this case there are 3 stamps, so y=3, and the formula looks like this: 3×(3-1)×(3-2).
Confused? Let me explain why it works.
There are 3 possibilities for the first stamp: A, B, or C.
There are 2 possibilities for the second space: The two stamps that are not in the first space.
There is 1 possibility for the third space: the stamp not used in the first or second space.
So the number of possibilities, in this case, is 3×2×1.
We can see that the number of ways that 3 stamps can be attached is the same regardless of method used.
Answer:
24 candies originally
Step-by-step explanation:
Add the 4 to how many you had left, then think about that number, 16, and what goes into 16 evenly 2 times? 8 and originally she gave away 1/3 of the box and if you were to add another 8 to the box it would be 24 divided by 1/3, -,-4,= 12.
First, since we must follow PEMDAS, we need to do the operation that is first, which is addition.
-3.9 + 6.01 ← Adding a negative means subtracting, then giving the sign of the bigger number.
So now we solved those and we got this answer: 2.11
Now, we need to subtract and re-write the expression.
2.11 - (-7.423) = 2.11 + 7.423= 9.533
Ok....so now we have our final answer, and we have the choices above.
The only answer that matches ours is the last one.
Final answer: 9.533
Hope I helped ^_^
You would need to have the information of how it translated, wether it was left or right, or up or down. you would also want the information of how far it translated.
