A geometric sequence is a sequence in which there is a common ratio between any two consecutive terms. In this case if X:Y:Z are in the ratio of 2:7:8 the multiplying by a constant k, we have X=2k, Y= 7k and Z=8k.
Then if X, Y-12, Z form a Geometric sequence, it means X/Y-12=Y-12/Z which is the same as 2k/7k-12=7k-12/8k if we cross multply, we get
16k²= 49k²-168k +144
33k²-168k+144 =0 solving for k
k = 4 or 1.091 if we take the whole number to find the values of X,Y and z,
X= 8, Y= 28 and Z=32
There are 20! number of ways for everyone to do this so that at the end of the move, each seat is taken by exactly one person.
People are seated in a 2 by 10 rectangle grid. All 20 persons stand up from their seats and relocate to an orthogonally neighboring one upon the blowing of a whistle.
Now, we have to find the number of possible ways in which each seat is taken up by exactly one person after the move.
As the number of people is 20 and 20 seats are to filled exactly once.
So, the number of ways = 20!
