Answer:
There are 67626 ways of distributing the chairs.
Step-by-step explanation:
This is a combinatorial problem of balls and sticks. In order to represent a way of distributing n identical chairs to k classrooms we can align n balls and k-1 sticks. The first classroom will receive as many chairs as the amount of balls before the first stick. The second one will receive as many chairs as the amount of balls between the first and the second stick, the third classroom will receive the amount between the second and third stick and so on (if 2 sticks are one next to the other, then the respective classroom receives 0 chairs).
The total amount of ways to distribute n chairs to k classrooms as a result, is the total amount of ways to put k-1 sticks and n balls in a line. This can be represented by picking k-1 places for the sticks from n+k-1 places available; thus the cardinality will be the combinatorial number of n+k-1 with k-1, 
.
For the 2 largest classrooms we distribute n = 50 chairs. Here k = 2, thus the total amount of ways to distribute them is 
.
For the 3 remaining classrooms (k=3) we need to distribute the remaining 50 chairs, here we have 
ways of making the distribution.
As a result, the total amount of possibilities for the chairs to be distributed is 51*1326 = 67626.
Answer:
= 9x^15/7
Step-by-step explanation:
9/11 is the answer because 1 and 1/2 x 6 is 9
Answer:
The number of bananas that Emily bought was 6 and the number of peaches that Emily bought was 8
Step-by-step explanation:
<u><em>The complete question is</em></u>
Emily and her children went into a grocery store and she bought $20.80 worth of bananas and peaches. Each banana costs $0.80 and each peach costs $2. She bought a total of 14 peaches and bananas altogether. Determine the number of peaches and the number of bananas that Emily bought
Let
x ----> the number of bananas that Emily bought
y ----> the number of peaches that Emily bought
we know that
She bought a total of 14 bananas and peaches altogether
so
-----> equation A
She bought $20.80 worth of bananas and peaches
so
-----> equation B
Solve the system by graphing
Remember that the solution is the intersection point both graphs
using a graphing tool
The solution is the point (6,8)
see the attached figure
therefore
The number of bananas that Emily bought was 6 and the number of peaches that Emily bought was 8
Answer:
The discount is $0.8d.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that,
The original cost of Tamara's purchase is d dollars.
Tamara uses a coupon to save 20% off her purchase at the bookstore.
Discount = 20%
Discount is applied to the original cost.
Discount = d-(20/100)d
Discount = 0.8 d
Hence, the discount is $0.8d.
