Trifecta In horse racing, a trifecta is a bet that the first three finishers in a race are selected in the correct order. In a race with 12 horses, how many different trifecta bets are possible? If you randomly guess the order of the first three finishers in a race with 12 horses, what is the probabi

Consider a modern city in which office employment has been steadily shifting from the city center to suburban locations along beltways. Suppose that the city improves its mass-transit system, decreasing the monetary and time costs of radial travel. Assume the improvement in the transit system does no
