There are 14 chairs and 8 people to be seated. But among the 8. three will be seated together:
So 5 people and (3) could be considered as 6 entities:
Since the order matters, we have to use permutation:
¹⁴P₆ = (14!)/(14-6)! = 2,162,160, But the family composed of 3 people can permute among them in 3! ways or 6 ways. So the total number of permutation will be ¹⁴P₆ x 3!
2,162,160 x 6 = 12,972,960 ways.
Another way to solve this problem is as follow:
5 + (3) people are considered (for the time being) as 6 entities:
The 1st has a choice among 14 ways
The 2nd has a choice among 13 ways
The 3rd has a choice among 12 ways
The 4th has a choice among 11 ways
The 5th has a choice among 10 ways
The 6th has a choice among 9ways
So far there are 14x13x12x11x10x9 = 2,162,160 ways
But the 3 (that formed one group) could seat among themselves in 3!
or 6 ways:
Total number of permutation = 2,162,160 x 6 = 12,972,960
Answer:
40 mph
Step-by-step explanation:
We assume "outbound" refers to the trip <em>to the lake</em>. The ratio of speeds is inversely proportional to the ratio of times, so ...
outbound speed : inbound speed = 4 : 3
These differ by one ratio unit, so that one ratio unit corresponds to the speed difference of 10 mph. Then the 4 ratio units of outbound speed will correspond to ...
4×10 mph = 40 mph
Paul's average speed on the outbound trip was 40 mph.
___
The distance to the lake was 120 mi.
Answer:
B. 1/2
Step-by-step explanation:
If we plug in 0 for z, we get 0/0. Apply l'Hopital's rule.
Now when we plug in 0 for z, we get:
D: We solve this in exactly the same way in which we solved the previous area problem. Side length is s, area is s^2. Here, side length is 5 in; area is 25 in^2.
the problem does say, however, not to include units in your answer. Thus, just write "25."
