Answer:
<em>Choose the first alternative</em>
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Probabilities</u>
The requested probability can be computed as the ratio between the number of ways to choose two sophomores in alternate positions 
and the total number of possible choices 
, i.e.
There are 6 sophomores and 14 freshmen to choose from each separate set. There are 20 students in total
We'll assume the positions of the selections are NOT significative, i.e. student A/student B is the same as student B/student A.
To choose 2 sophomores out of the 6 available, the first position has 6 elements to choose from, the second has now only 5
The total number of possible choices is
The probability is then
Choose the first alternative
So firstly, <u>the factor (4n - 5) cannot be further factored, so we will be focusing on 2n² + 5n + 3.</u>
So for this, we will be factoring by grouping. Firstly, what two terms have a product of 6n² and a sum of 5n? That would be 2n and 3n. Replace 5n with 2n + 3n:
Next, factor 2n² + 2n and 3n + 3 separately. Make sure that they have the same quantity on the inside of the parentheses:
Now we can rewrite this expression as<u> 
, which is your final answer.</u>

Answer:
100.9 yards
Step-by-step explanation:
One circuit of the track is a distance of ...
C = 2πr = 2π(60 yd) = 120π yd.
At Alex's running rate, the distance covered in 20 minutes is ...
(4 yd/s)(20 min)(60 s/min) = 4800 yd
The number of circuits will be ...
(4800 yd)/(120π yd/circuit) = 40/π circuits ≈ 12.7324 circuits
The last of Alex's laps is more than half-completed, so the shortest distance to his starting point is 13 -12.7324 = 0.2676 circuits,
That distance is (0.2676 circuits)×(120π yd/circuit) ≈ 100.88 yd
The shortest distance along the track to Alex's starting point is about 100.9 yards.
_____
<em>Additional comment</em>
The exact distance is 120(13π-40) yards. The distance will vary according to your approximation for pi. If you use 3.14, this is about 98.4 yards.
