Yes, you are right. the length is 3, the height is 2, and the width is 1
The answers are:
P(9, 2) = 72
P(5, 5) = 120
P(7, 7) = 5040
These are examples of permutations. The problems are asking us to find the total number of ways an event can happen.
In the first case, P(9, 2), we are asked to find the ways that 2 things can be chosen out of a group of 9.
9 x 8 = 72
P(5, 5) = 5 x 4 x 3 x 2 x 1
P(7, 7) = 7 x 6 x 5 x 4 x 3 x 2 x 1
A pythagoras triplet is a set of three numbers ... not just any three numbers,
but a set where the (square of one of them) is the sum of the (squares of the
other two).
If they're related in that way, then they can be the lengths of the sides of a
right triangle.
If they're not, then they can't.
Combining the operations
The allowed operations are:
Add the same amount to both sides (either x's or ones)
Subtract the same amount from both sides (either x's or ones)
Multiply both sides by the same number (but not by zero)
Divide both sides by the same number (but not by zero)
(There are others, too, but they are not needed in simple equations.)
The goal is to FIRST add and subtract until we have ONLY x's (blocks) on one side and ONLY ones (circles) on the other. Then, if you have more than one block, you need to divide so as to arrive to the situation with only one block on the one side, which is the solved equation!
