How many distinguishable 11 letter "words" can be formed using the letters in MISSISSIPPI?

SCORPION-xisa [38]

This is given by the multinomial coefficient:

$\dbinom{11}{1,4,4,2}=\dfrac{11!}{1!4!4!2!}=34650$

If you're not familiar with the multinomial coefficient, you may be able to see it more clearly if you count the number of possible combinations taking each distinct letter $n$ times, where $n$ is the number of times it shows up in the original word.

$\underbrace{\dbinom{11}1}_{\text{M}}\underbrace{\dbinom{10}4}_{\text{I}}\underbrace{\dbinom64}_{\text{S}}\underbrace{\dbinom22}_{\text{P}}=\dfrac{11!}{1!10!}\dfrac{10!}{4!6!}\dfrac{6!}{4!2!}\dfrac{2!}{2!0!}=\dfrac{11!}{1!4!4!2!}$

You purchase 26 parking hours that you can use the next month to park your food truck at the fair. Weekday hours park $2 per hou

ICE Princess25 [194]

Answer:

Number of week day hours purchased is 5

Step-by-step explanation:

Total number of Parking hours purchased = 26 parking hours

Parking cost on weekdays = $2 per hour

Parking costs on weekends = $10 per hour

Total amount spent on parking = $220.

To Find:

Number of week days purchased = ?

Solution:

Let

The number of week days purchased be x

The number of weekends purchased be y

We know that the total hours purchased is 26

So,

x+y = 26

y = 26-x------------------------------------------------------(1)

Now the total cost is 220

(Total number of weekdays X cost per weekday ) +(Total number of weekends + cost per weekend) =220

Substituting the values

=> $x\times 2 + y \times 10$ = 220

=> $x \times 2 + (26-x) \times 10 =220$

=>2x + 260 -10x =220

=>260 -8x = 220

=>260 -220 =8x

=>40 = 8x

=>x= $\frac{40}{8}$

x= 5-------------------------------------------(2)

Now substituting (2) in (1) we get

y= 26-5

y= 21
