Simplify
= 6/(gf^4)
hope that helps
Each medal is different and is handed out depending on the outcome of the race/order of the racers, so we're counting the number of permutations. 4 medals are given to 4 runners, so there are

possible ways to do it.
X-y=2 (*-2) --> -2x+2y=-4
2x+3y=14
------------------
2x+3y=14
-2x+2y=-4
------------------
5y=10
y=2
X + x + 165 = 1315
2x + 165 = 1315
subtract 165 from both sides
2x = 1150
divide both sides by 2
x = 575
January 575
February 575 + 165 = 740
