Answer:
a) P = 362880 ways
b) P = 2880 ways
Step-by-step explanation:
a) We have four boys and five girls, they are going to sit together in a row of 9 theater seats, without restrictions
We have a permutation of 9 elements
P = 9!
P = 9*8*7*6*5*4*3*2*1
P = 362880 ways
b) Boys must seat together, we have two groups of people
4 boys they can seat in 4! different ways
P₁ = 4!
P₁ = 4*3*2*1
P₁ = 24
And girls can seat in 5! dfferent ways
P₂ = 5!
P₂ = 5*4*3*2*1
P₂ = 120
To get total ways in the above mentioned condition, we have to multiply P₁*P₂
P = 24*120
P = 2880 ways
C = -4 that’s the answer if you didn’t see my comment
Answer:
4^3x=4^(4x+4)
Step-by-step explanation:
You can eliminate the first 2 options since those don’t make sense already, and the last option changed 64 to 2^6 which is correct, but when they changed the other side. They should have multiplied 8 to both x and 1 which would have made the whole term 2^(8x+8) and not 2^(8x+1). Left with the third option, 4 to the power of 3 is 64 so the left side makes sense, 4^3x=64^x, on the right side, 4^4 equals 256, so the whole exponent should multiply by 4 so from 256^(x+1) you get 4^4(x+1) giving 4^(4x+4) making the third choice the right answer.
