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

Find two numbers if their ratio is 9:11 and their difference is 6.
balu736 [363]

Answer:

27:33

Step-by-step explanation:

If u multiply both sides of the ratio by the same number, u get an equivalent ratio. By multiplying 9:11 by 3 on both sides, you get 27:33. The difference refers to subtraction. 33-27= 6 which is the difference between the two numbers.

If the top of a 4.50 m ladder reaches twice as far up a vertical wall as the foot of the
STALIN [3.7K]

Answer:

4 m.

Step-by-step explanation:

Length of ladder, L = 4.50 m

Base of ladder from the wall, B = x

Height of the wall, H = 2x

Using Pythagoras theorem

L^2 = B^2 + H^2

4.5^2 = x^2 + (2x)^2

5x^2 = 4.5^2

x = 2\ m\ (approx.)

Height of the wall  is equal to 2 x 2 = 4 m.

Vladimir [108]
F=5.77X10^9(1.032^(y-1985)), we want to know when this is:

2.2X10^12=5.77X10^9(1.032^(y-1985))

381.2825=1.032^(y-1985)

ln(3,812825)=(y-1985)ln(1.032)

ln(3.812825)/ln(1.032)=y-1985

y=1985+ln(3.812825)/ln(1.032)

y≈2027.5  

So GDP will reach 2.2 trillion during the year 2027.
