Answer: 1260

Step-by-step explanation:

The number of permutation of n things in which 'a' things are like , 'b' things are like and so on.. is given by :-

\dfrac{n!}{a!\ b!....}

Given : A shipping company devises a messaging consisting of 9 flags hung in a line.

Then, the number of different possible messages constructed from a set of 4 white, 3 red, and 2 blue flags will be :-

\dfrac{9!}{4! 3!2!}\\\\=\dfrac{9\times8\times7\times6\times5\times4!}{4! 3\times2\times2}\\\\=1260

Hence, the number of different possible messages constructed from a set of 4 white, 3 red, and 2 blue flags= 1260

leva [86]
We have to factor becasue
area=legnth times width
area=4x^2+28x+49
area=(2x+7)(2x+7)
area=(2x+7)^2
legnth =width

we arent' given area so we can't solve
but, , since it is a squaer room, legnth=width so √area=legnth=width

The base of a triangle is 3 cm longer than its altitude. The area of the triangle is 35cm^2. Find the altitude. (Hint: use the a
klemol [59]
The base is 3+(x), altitude is x so substitute. Now we know the area of a triangle is base X height X 1/2. Substitute again! 1/2 (3+x)(x)=35. Multiply both sides by 2 to cancel out the 1/2. Now you have (x)(x+3)=70 and you have to foil out the left side x^2+3x=70. Subtract 70 on both sides x^2+3x-70=0. Find two numbers that multiply to -70 and add to 3. Solve (x+10)(x-7)=0. the x value is 7. since you can't have negative length values. Substitute 7 into 3+x for the base so you know the base is 10 and the height is 7.
