Math Sheleah and her family are planning a trip from Los Angeles, California to Melbourne, Australia. While booking her family's plane tickets, she notices on the itinerary that the airline is offering a sixteen hour straight flight from Los Angeles to Melbourne on a Boeing 747-8 Intercontinental Jet. In an effort to learn more about the capabilities of the Jet, Sheleah does a little research and stumbles upon the following graph and facts about the Jet's gasoline consumption.

The Boeing 747-8 Intercontinental Jet can carry approximately 422,000 gallons of gasoline, making it possible for the jet to travel 14,430 kilometers before needing to refuel.

Create a linear model that represents the amount of gasoline on the plane, in gallons, as a function of the flight time, in hours. Show all of your work.

Suppose we have a set of small wooden blocks showing the 26 letters of the english alphabet, one letter per block. (think of scrabble tiles.) our set includes 10 copies of each letter. we place them into a bag and draw out one block at a time. (a) if we line up the letters on a rack as we draw them, how different ways coukl we fill a rack of 5 letters? (b) now suppose we just toss our chosen blocks into a pile, and whenever we draw a letter we already have, we put it back in the bag and draw again. how many different piles of 5 blocks could result? possible? piles will contain at least one repeated letter? (c) if we draw out 5 blocks wit hout looking at them, how many different piles are (d) if we draw out 5 blocks without looking at them, how many of the possible 2. (4) consider the following formula. 12 give two different proofs, one using the factorial formulas and the other combina torial.
