Answer and Step-by-step explanation:
Number of ways = 59C5 × 35= 59!/(54!*5!)* 35= 175223510
Odds are thus 1 in 175223510
b) 1 million - Number of ways = 59!/(54!*5!) =5006386*35/34 = 5153632
Odds are thus 1 in 5153632
Step-by-step explanation:
Pythagoras' theorem for the smallest one :


= 52
Pythagoras' theorem for the middle one :
=
+ 
Pythagoras' theorem for the biggest one :


Using the formula before (for
) it becomes :



16 + 8a = 52 + 36
16+8a = 88
8a = 88-16
8a = 72
a = 9
Verifying :



= 117
The biggest one :



True
Let the four consecutive numbers be x, x+1, x+2, and x+3.
The sum of the four numbers is 54, therefore
x + (x+1) + (x+2) + (x+3) = 54
4x + 6 = 54
4x = 54 - 6 = 48
x = 12
Answer:
The four numbers are 12, 13, 14, and 15
