Okay, let's work this out...
What we know:
-32 stamps in all
- rows (horizontal)
- same # in each
What we "want to know" :
- # of combinations (different)
Problem Solving :
This is actually very easy its just the words than get ya!
1st : we need to figure out the factors of 32...
In other words, we need to figure out _x_=32 and how many different combinations and ways there are!
Note:(* means multiplication)
#1: What are the factors of 32?
32: 1*32 , 2*16 , 4*8
32: 32*1 , 16*2 , 8*4
The factors (not including 1 are 2,4,8,16)
Now, as you can see, there are 4 ways to get 32 as shown first.

That ¦ is 1 way with 16 in 2 rows. Basic multiplication, 16*2=32 or 16+16=32.
But, this is also a way,
||
||
||
||
||
||
||
||
||
||
||
||
||
||
||
||
Now there should be 2 in each row and 16 rows. Again 2*16=32 or 2+2+2+2+2+2+2+2+2+2+2+2+2+2+2+2=32
That's two ways so far.
||||||||
||||||||
||||||||
||||||||
Another way which is 4 rows with 8 in each.
4*8=32 or 8+8+8+8=32
But, this is also a way,
||||
||||
||||
||||
||||
||||
||||
||||
Now that is 8 rows with 4 in each. 8*4=32 or 4+4+4+4+4+4+4+4=32
That was our fourth way.
Again NOT including 1. If you include 1 then there will be 6 ways but aside from that there are 4 ways.
I hope that helped I worked hard typing this all for you. Any questions just ask!
Answer: Infinitely many
Step-by-step explanation: 2(x-3)=10x-6-8x
2x-6=10x-6-8x
2x-6=2x-6
Answer:
135.5ft
Step-by-step explanation:
THIS COMPLETE THE QUESTION
flagpole is supported by a wire fastened 60 feet from its base. The wire is 14 feet longer than the height it reaches on the flagpole. Find the length of the wire.
Let X be the length of the wire
Let y be the height of the pole
X= Y + 14
Y= X -14
We can form a right angle triangle form this, where X denote the Hypotenose, Y is the Opposite, and 60feet is the Adjacent.(CHECK THE ATTACHMENT FOR THE TRIANGLE)
Using Pythagoras theorem
X²= 60² + Y²
X² = 3600 + Y²
if we subsitute for Y we have
X² = 3600 + (X -14)²
X² = 3600 +X² -14X-14X+196
X²-X²+ 28X= 3600+196
28X= 3796
X= 3796/28
=135.5ft
hence length of the wire is 135.5ft
103 stays because it is the whole number and the next number after the decimal is below 5.
103 is your answer.
