Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Tanisha, Elicia, and Ajua are cousins. Tanisha is twice as old as Ajua, and Elicia is two years older than Tanisha. The sum of all their ages is 37. Use variable expressions and calculate the age of each girl

Let us represent:

The age of :

Tanisha = a

Elicia = b

Ajua = c

Tanisha, Elicia, and Ajua are cousins. Tanisha is twice as old as Ajua

a = 2c

c = 2/a

Elicia is two years older than Tanisha.l

b = a + 2

The sum of all their ages is 37.

a + b + c = 37

We substitute

a + a + 2 + 2/a = 37

2a + 2 + 2/a = 37

Use variable expressions and calculate the age of each girl

If you have 6 cars, but there is only room in your driveway for 3 cars, in how many ways can you arrange the cars in your drivew
Svetradugi [14.3K]

If the order does not matter, cars can be arranged in 20 ways

If an order is important, cars can be arranged in 120 ways

The probability that the three newest cars end up parked in the driveway is 0.167

1. If the order does not matter, combination is used

\left ({n} \atop {r}} \right.)=\frac{n!}{r!(n-r)!}

Here, n=6 r=3

using formula,we get

\left ( {{6} \atop {3}} \right)=\frac{6!}{3!3!} =5*4=20

2. If an order is important, Permutation will be applicable

^{n}P_{r} = \frac{n!}{(n-r)!} \\

∴^{6} P_{3} =\frac{6!}{3!(6-3)!}=\frac{6!}{3!}  =120

3. the probability that the three newest cars end up parked in the driveway

P=\frac{No. of possible outcomes for 3 cars}{total possibilities}

=\frac{6*4*5}{6!}

=\frac{120}{720}

=\frac{1}{6} ≈ 0.167

Hence, If the order does not matter, cars can be arranged in 20 ways

If an order is important, cars can be arranged in 120 ways

The probability that the three newest cars end up parked in the driveway is 0.167
