There are 14 chairs and 8 people to be seated. But among the 8. three will be seated together:
So 5 people and (3) could be considered as 6 entities:
Since the order matters, we have to use permutation:
¹⁴P₆ = (14!)/(14-6)! = 2,162,160, But the family composed of 3 people can permute among them in 3! ways or 6 ways. So the total number of permutation will be ¹⁴P₆ x 3!
2,162,160 x 6 = 12,972,960 ways.
Another way to solve this problem is as follow:
5 + (3) people are considered (for the time being) as 6 entities:
The 1st has a choice among 14 ways
The 2nd has a choice among 13 ways
The 3rd has a choice among 12 ways
The 4th has a choice among 11 ways
The 5th has a choice among 10 ways
The 6th has a choice among 9ways
So far there are 14x13x12x11x10x9 = 2,162,160 ways
But the 3 (that formed one group) could seat among themselves in 3!
or 6 ways:
Total number of permutation = 2,162,160 x 6 = 12,972,960
Mean, in terms of math, is the total added values of all the data in a set divided by the number of data <em>in</em> the set. Make sense? If not, here' an example...
Let's say this is my data set:
1, 2, 5, 4, 3, 8, 7, 4, 6,10
To find the mean...
Step 1: Add all of them together.
1+2+5+4+3+8+7+4+6+10 is what? 50. Now that you have this number...
Step 2: Divide by the amount there are. Basically, count up all of the numbers. How many are there? There are 10. Finally...
Step 3: Divide. 50/10 is 5, so the mean of this data set would be 5. Get it? I sure hoped this helped :)
Let
x: number of regular basketball
y: number of long-distance basket
We have the following system of equations:
2x + 3y = 96
x + y = 45
Solving the system we have
y = 45-x
2x + 3 (45-x) = 96
2x +135 -3x = 96
-x = 96 -135
x = 39
Then,
y = 45-x
y = 45-39
y = 6
answer
were made
regular baskets = 39
long-distance baskets = 6
Expanded form:
1 × 100,000,000
+ 5 × 10,000,000
+ 4 × 1,000,000
+ 7 × 100,000
+ 9 × 10,000
+ 8 × 1,000
+ 1 × 100
+ 0 × 10
+ 5 × 1
I hope it helps :)
If you mean 1/3 the answer is -15.5
1/3(-32.48-14.02) = 1/3(-46.5) = (-15.5)
