For an instance, A,B,C,D,E,F represent the students, and ABC must be seated together.
Use factorial of 4 (4!). Why 4? Because we have 4 different positions. ABC together, and D, E, F who can be seated separately.
4! = 4 × 3 × 2 × 1
4! = 24

After that, multiply the result of the factorial above by 6. Why 6? Because ABC could have different order: ABC, ACB, BAC, BCA, CAB, CBA, as long as they are together. Therefore,
number of ways = 24 × 6
number of ways = 144

There are 144 ways

  We have:
  The generic equation of the line is:  y-yo = m (x-xo)
  The slope is:
  m = (y2-y1) / (x2-x1)
  m = (- 2-0) / (3-0)
  m = -2 / 3
  We choose an ordered pair
  (xo, yo) = (0, 0)
  Substituting values:
  y-0 = (- 2/3) (x-0)
  Rewriting:
  y = (- 2/3) x
  Answer:
  The equation of the line is:
  y = (- 2/3) x

If w is a string of english letters a–z (all uppercase for the purposes of this problem), let wr denote the reverse of w; (train
Dennis_Churaev [7]

Answer:

f(x)=\left \{\begin{array}{rl}26^{\frac{k}{2}}&\text{for k even}\\26^{\frac{k+1}{2}}&\text{for k odd}\end{array}\right.

Step-by-step explanation:

Half the length of the palindrome can be any possible sequence of the 26 available letters. The other half is constrained to be the reverse of the same sequence. For odd length sequences, the middle letter can be any of the 26.

So, for k even, the number of palindromes is 26^(k/2). For k odd, the number is 26·26^((k-1)/2) = 26^)((k+1)/2).

Vanyuwa [196]

Answer:

82/43 = 1 and 39/43

Step-by-step explanation:

When dividing 82 by 43 , the operation follows;

82/43 = 1 and 39/43

This means the quotient is 1 and reminder is 39

However;

82/43 = 1.907 ------nearest whole number is 2.

so the quotient can be approximated to the nearest whole number as 2.
