Answer:

(a) 720 ways

(b) 120 ways

(c) 24 ways

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Word = DANCER

n =6 --- number of letters

Solving (a): Number of arrangements.

We have:

n =6

So, the number of arrangements is calculated as:

Total =n!

This gives:

Total =6!

This gives:

Total =6*5*4*3*2*1

Total =720

Solving (b): DA as a unit

DA as a unit implies that, we have:

[DA] N C E R

So, we have:

n = 5

So, the number of arrangements is calculated as:

Total =n!

This gives:

Total =5!

This gives:

Total =5*4*3*2*1

Total =120

Solving (c): NCE as a unit

NCE as a unit implies that, we have:

D A [NCE] R

So, we have:

n = 4

So, the number of arrangements is calculated as:

Total =n!

This gives:

Total =4!

This gives:

Total =4*3*2*1

Total =24

Sandra saves 7% of her salary for retirement. This year her salary was $2,000 more than her salary than in the previous year, an
Effectus [21]

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  • 2,000
  • $45,000

Step-by-step explanation:

Where x represents the previous year's salary, its amount this year is said to be ...

  x + 2000

The equation is trying to reflect the fact that 7% of that is $3,290. The missing number is 2000:

  0.07(x +2000) = 3290

__

Solving for x, we find ...

  x = (3290/0.07) -2000 = 45000

Sandra's salary the previous year was $45,000.
