- There are 15 candidates running for any of 5 distinct positions on the local school board. In how many different ways could the 5 positions be filled?arrow_forwardUse the Euclidean algorithm to find two sets of integers (a, b, c) such that 55a65b+143c: Solution = 1. By the Euclidean algorithm, we have: 143 = 2.65 + 13 and 65 = 5.13, so 13 = 143 – 2.65. - Also, 55 = 4.13+3, 13 = 4.3 + 1 and 3 = 3.1, so 1 = 13 — 4.3 = 13 — 4(55 – 4.13) = 17.13 – 4.55. Combining these, we have: 1 = 17(143 – 2.65) - 4.55 = −4.55 - 34.65 + 17.143, so we can take a = − −4, b = −34, c = 17. By carrying out the division algorithm in other ways, we obtain different solutions, such as 19.55 23.65 +7.143, so a = = 9, b -23, c = 7. = = how ? come [Note that 13.55 + 11.65 - 10.143 0, so we can obtain new solutions by adding multiples of this equation, or similar equations.]arrow_forwardCelina is picking a new frame for a custom piece of artwork.
