1) five identical balls are merked with the numbers: 7, 3, 4, 2, 1 and are placed in a box. the balls are thoroughly mixed before three balls are drawn out all at one time from the box. A score is obtained by adding the numbers on the three balls drawn. find how many different scores are possible and the possible score.

2) a passenger train travelled at a speed of 72km/h. a man on the passenger train observed a goods train travelling at a speed of 54 km/h in the opposite direction. if the goods train passed him in 8 secs, find the length of the goods train.

give explanatory solutions plzzzzz

Q2) think of this as passenger train stationary and only goods train moving.
so the total speed will be v=72+54=136 km/h
its takes train 8 secs to pass, convert this time to hours as speed given in km/h
in order to convert secs to hours divide it by 3600
so distance covered d=136*(8/3600)=0.302222 km
u can convert it to meters if u want by multiplying by 1000
length 0.30222*1000= 302.22 m
