To calculate: The number of ways such that jokes can be delivered if George Carlin’s joke is delivered first and Jerry Seinfeld’s is last.
The given jokes in the book are:
1) “Outside of a dog, a book is man’s best friend. Inside of a dog, it’s too dark to read.”—Groucho Marx
2) “I recently bought a book of free verse. For $12.”—George Carlin
3) “If a word in the dictionary was misspelled, how would we know?”—Steven Wright
4) “Encyclopedia is a Latin term. It means ‘to paraphrase a term paper.’ ”—Greg Ray

- Number 4 plsarrow_forwardGood Day, Would appreciate any assistance with this query. Regards,arrow_forwardThis question builds on an earlier problem. The randomized numbers may have changed, but have your work for the previous problem available to help with this one. A 4-centimeter rod is attached at one end to a point A rotating counterclockwise on a wheel of radius 2 cm. The other end B is free to move back and forth along a horizontal bar that goes through the center of the wheel. At time t=0 the rod is situated as in the diagram at the left below. The wheel rotates counterclockwise at 1.5 rev/sec. At some point, the rod will be tangent to the circle as shown in the third picture. A B A B at some instant, the piston will be tangent to the circle (a) Express the x and y coordinates of point A as functions of t: x= 2 cos(3πt) and y= 2 sin(3t) (b) Write a formula for the slope of the tangent line to the circle at the point A at time t seconds: -cot(3πt) sin(3лt) (c) Express the x-coordinate of the right end of the rod at point B as a function of t: 2 cos(3πt) +411- 4 -2 sin (3лt) (d)…arrow_forward
