Answer:

1320

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that

Total number of athelets are running in race=12

Total number of medals =3

We have to find the total possible number of ways can the 3 medals be distributed.

Total number of ways for choosen gold medal=12

Number of ways for choosen silver medal=11

Number of ways for choosen Bronze medal=10

Total number of possible ways=12\times 11\times 10=1320

Hence, total number of possible ways in which  3 medals be distributed=1320

URGENT PLEASE I NEED HELP AND KINDLY SHOW THE SOLUTION/S AS WELL :))

Answer:

1. Steve's age is 18 and Anne's age is 8.

2. Max's age is 17 and Bert's age is 11.

3. Sury's age is 19 and Billy's age is 9.

4. The man's age is 30 and his son's age is 10.

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Let us assume that:

S = Steve's age now

A = Anne's age now

Therefore, in four years, we have:

S + 4 = (A + 4)2 - 2

S + 4 = 2A + 8 - 2

S + 4 = 2A + 6 .................. (1)

Three years ago, we have:

S - 3 = (A - 3)3

S - 3 = 3A - 9 ................................ (2)

From equation (2), we have:

S = 3A - 9 + 3

S = 3A – 6 …………. (3)

Substitute S from equation (3) into equation (1) and solve for A, we have:

3A – 6 + 4 = 2A + 6

3A – 2A = 6 + 6 – 4

A = 8

Substitute A = 8 into equation (3), we have:

S = (3 * 8) – 6

S = 24 – 6

S = 18

Therefore, Steve's age is 18 while Anne's age is 8.

2. Let us assume that:

M = Max's age now

B = Bert's age now

Therefore, five years ago, we have:

M - 5 = (B - 5)2

M - 5 = 2B - 10 .......................... (4)

A year from now, we have:

(M + 1) + (B + 1) = 30

M + 1 + B + 1 = 30

M + B + 2 = 30 .......................... (5)

From equation (5), we have:

M = 30 – 2 – B

M = 28 – B …………………… (6)

Substitute M from equation (6) into equation (4) and solve for B, we have:

28 – B – 5 = 2B – 10

28 – 5 + 10 = 2B + B

33 = 3B

B = 33 / 3

B = 11

Substituting B = 11 into equation (6), we have:

M = 28 – 11

M = 17

Therefore, Max's age is 17 while Bert's age is 11.

3. Let us assume that:

S = Sury's age now

B = Billy's age now

Therefore, now, we have:

S = B + 10 ................................ (7)

Next year, we have:

S + 1 = (B + 1)2

S + 1 = 2B + 2 .......................... (8)

Substituting S from equation (7) into equation (8) and solve for B, we have:

B + 10 + 1 = 2B + 2

10 + 1 – 2 = 2B – B

B = 9

Substituting B = 9 into equation (7), we have:

S = 9 + 10

S = 19

Therefore, Sury's age is 19 while Billy's age is 9.

4. Let us assume that:

M = The man's age now

S = His son's age now

Therefore, now, we have:

M = 3S ................................... (9)

Five years ago, we have:

M - 5 = (S - 5)5

M - 5 = 5S - 25 ................ (10)

Substituting M from equation (9) into equation (10) and solve for S, we have:

3S - 5 = 5S – 25

3S – 5S = - 25 + 5

-2S = - 20

S = -20 / -2

S = 10

Substituting S = 10 into equation (9), we have:

M = 3 * 10

M = 30

Therefore, the man's age is 30 and his son's age is 10.
