Imagine a couple who is ready to start a family. They plan to have exactly four children. Assuming no multiple births (twins, tr

iplets, etc.), use the information provided in Pascal's triangle to determine how many different ways they may have exactly three boys and one girl (regardless of birth order).

Answer:

4 different ways

Step-by-step explanation:

Total number of children = 4

Distribution of the 4 children :

Number of boys = 3 ; Number of girls = 1

Boy = B ; Girl = G

Possible combinations :

BBBG ; GBBB ; BBGB ; BGBB

From the pascal triangle number of e; number of outcomes = 2

Having exactly 3 boys and 1 girl

Hence, of any of the 4 four total children, 3 must be boys and 1 girl ;

PLEASE HELP 20 POINTS<br> solve the system of equations y=-5x-7 and -4x-3y=-1 by substitution.
Ainat [17]

Answer:

Solution: x = -2; y = 3 or (-2, 3)

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Equation 1:</u>  y = -5x - 7  

<u>Equation 2:</u> -4x - 3y = -1

Substitute the value of y in Equation 1 into the Equation 2:

-4x - 3(-5x - 7)  = -1

-4x +15x + 21 = -1

Combine like terms:

11x + 21 =  - 1

Subtract 21 from both sides:

11x + 21 - 21 =  - 1 - 21

11x = -22

Divide both sides by 11 to solve for x:

11x/11 = -22/11

x = -2

Now that we have the value for x, substitute x = 2 into Equation 2 to solve for y:

-4x - 3y = -1

-4(-2) - 3y = -1

8 - 3y = -1

Subtract 8 from both sides:

8 - 8 - 3y = -1 - 8

-3y = -9

Divide both sides by -3 to solve for y:

-3y/-3 = -9/-3

y = 3

Therefore, the solution to the given systems of linear equations is:

x = -2; y = 3 or (-2, 3)

a football is fired upward with an initial speed of 800 feet per second. It is given that h=-12t^2+360t (h is the height of the
tangare [24]

Answer:

30 s

Step-by-step explanation:

When the ball hits the ground h=0. To find the time t when this happens we must solve the equation h=0.

●h= 0

● -12t^2+360t =0

● t(-12t +360) = 0

● t = 0 or -12t +360 =0

● t=0 or -12t = -360

● t=0 or 12t =360

● t=0 or t=360/12

● t=0 or t= 30

The equation has two solutions.

The ball was fired with an initial speed of 800 feet per second so it cannot hit the ground at t=0.

So the ball hits the ground after 30 s.
