Answer:
They can finish the race in 15 x 14 x 13 x 12 x 11 = 360360 order.
Step-by-step explanation:
There are 15 bicyclists in the race. The first position would come from the first bicyclist to the 15th. Meaning the first position can be occupied by 15 individuals. The second position can only be occupied by 14 individuals since one person is already first. Same way the third, fourth and fifth positions can be occupied by 13, 12 and 11 individuals respectively.
Therefore, they can finish the race in
15 x 14 x 13 x 12 x 11 = 360360 order.
Yes! To factor this, you would put it into expanded form: (x+7)(x-7). This is the only way to solve this and eliminate the x^1 term.

I hope this helps. :) ( I also multiplied them to check)
Sharecropping is a type of farming in which families rent small plots of land from a landowner in return for a portion of their crop, to be given to the landowner at the end of each year. Different types of sharecropping have been practiced worldwide for centuries, but in the rural South, it was typically practiced by former slaves. With the southern economy in disarray after the abolition of slavery and the devastation of the Civil War, conflict arose during the Reconstruction era between many white landowners attempting to reestablish a labor force and freed blacks seeking economic independence and autonomy.
