Using the arrangements formula, it is found that there are 24 ways for them to stand in line so that the youngest person is always first, and the oldest person is always last.
<h3>What is the arrangements formula?</h3>
The number of possible arrangements of n elements is given by the factorial of n, that is:
In this problem, we have that there are 6 people. The youngest person(Leslie) has to be first, while the oldest(Parvinis) has to be last, while the remaining 4 can be arranged, hence the number of ways for them to stand in line is given by:

Use the trick x+ y+ z =0 and 6+8+z=0,...so z= -14
So you want to solve for x?
It would be nice if this would easily factor:
(-4x + 5)(2x +1) = 0 This will not work!
So you need to use the quadratic formula:
a = -8, b = 4, c = 5
x = (-4 +/-
)/2(-8)
= (-4 +/-
)/-16
= (-4 +
)/-16
= 1/4 -
/4
Answer:
The Answer is: x = 1.444 with repeating 4.
Step-by-step explanation:
212x - 34(2x + 5) = 38
212x - 68x - 170 = 38
212x - 68x = 38 + 170
144x = 208
x = 208/144 = 52/35 or 1.444
Proof:
212(1.444) - 34(2(1.444) + 5) = 38
306.128 - 34(7.888) = 38
306.128 - 268.192 = 37.936 or approximately 38
Hope this helps! Have an Awesome Day!! :-)
