BR, this is one of Sam's extra credit questions in Algebra this weekend.

Everyone wants to watch football games. There are 3 on in the afternoon and 3 on in the evening. How many different combinations of games can they watch?

It depends on if you have to choose exactly one in the afternoon and exactly one in the evening, thus no channel switching.

If that's the case, let's say that teams A, B, and C play in the afternoon and teams D, E, and F play in the evening. Your choices are:
AD
AE
AF
BD
BE
BF
CD
CE
CF

Note that there are three choices in the afternoon and three in the evening for a product of 3 times 3 (or 9) choices.

Did I mention that I'm not "mathy" and apparently Sam isn't either. She got 12.Thanks BR, she has 8 of these dreaded story problems. Last WED. she came home and I asked her if she had any homework. She said no. I said ..none at all? She said well, only extra credit. And of course I said then yes, you have homework.

I think she only has one more to go after this one. She'll have to work on it after church. We may be calling on you again!!!

So you are saying that it IS technically possible. That is good to read.

Well, it could be a possibility now but Missouri would have to lose against Oklahoma. From what I heard Missouri and West Virginia will be 1 and 2 now. And SJ, there is still one undefeated team that won Friday and that is Hawaii ranked at #15. They beat Boise State and will probably move up a good bit, don't know to where though.
