Answer:
5832 ways
Step-by-step explanation:
Since the circle has 8 sectors and there is 4 colour,
Assuming the sectors are numbered 1 to 8,
Sector 1 : can be coloured with any of the 4 colour in 4 ways
Sector 2 can be coloured with any of the remaining 3 colours in 3 ways
Sector 3 in 3 ways without using the colour in sector 2
Sector 4 in 3 ways without using the colour in sector 3
Sector 5 in 3 ways without using the colour in sector 4
Sector 6 in 3 ways without using the colour in sector 5
Sector 7 in 3 ways without using the colour in sector 6
Sector 8 in 2 ways without using the colours in sector 1 and 7
Number of ways of colouring = 4*3*3*3*3*3*3*2 = 5832 ways
The answer is 16.5. because of the 2 after the 5, you keep it the same
y = 2 + x^6
y - 2 = x^6
x = (y - 2)^1/6
Well, solving this integral
= 2,69279
