Answer:

nobody

Step-by-step explanation:

Humans have made use of natural numbers as long as humans have been around. Counting numbers are wired into our consciousness, as they are for many living things.

Research has demonstrated some plants can count up to 5 (generally, carnivorous ones). Honeybees have long been known to be able to count to 4, and recent research shows they can count higher. Fish can count; birds can count; as can many other species.

For most, it takes concentration and/or training to count beyond 4. We are born with an understanding of 1, 2, 3, more.

Nobody "invented" natural numbers.

_____

<em>Additional comment</em>

Prey species survive by being able to count predators. Some predators take advantage of the limitations of number recognition by hunting in groups larger than can be readily counted.

The Lacrosse booster club is holding a raffle for a fundraiser. They will sell 100 tickets for $5 each and select 4 winners. All

Nadusha1986 [10]

Answer:

<h2>There are 3,921,225 ways to select the winners.</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

This problem is about combinations with no repetitions, because the same person can't win four times. It's a combinaction because the order of winning doesn't really matter.

Combinations without repetitions are defined as

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

Where $n=100$ and $r=4$ .

Replacing values, we have

$C_{100}^{4} =\frac{100!}{4!(100-4)!}=\frac{100!}{4! 96!}=\frac{100 \times 99 \times 98 \times 97 \times 96!}{4! \times 96!}= \frac{94,109,400}{24}= 3,921,225$

Therefore, there are 3,921,225 ways to select the winners.

Additionally, as you can imagine, the probability of winning is extremely low, it would be 3,921,225 to 1.

Mariah spent $9.50 on 9 pounds of limes and pears. Limes cost $0.50 per pound and pears cost $1.50 per pound. Let l be the numbe

Mashcka [7]

Answer:

4 pounds of lime and 5 pounds of pears

Step-by-step explanation:

I + P = 9

0.5l + 1.5P = 9.5

I = 9 - P

0.5(9 - P) + 1.5P = 9.5

4.5-0.5P + 1.5P = 9.5

4.5 + P (1P) = 9.5

P = 9.5-4.5 = 5

I = 9 - 5 = 4

Answer: 4 pounds of lime and 5 pounds of pears
